Possibly doing my next BC coaching course up at Inners - unless anything more local comes up lol

Will need accommodation for a Friday and Saturday night - don't fancy driving back to Staffordshire after a days riding...

Something cheap and bike friendly - don't mind a bit of a drive to the trials - say 30 minutes.

TIA

a premier inn is always a safe bet as they have a bike in room policy

That was my first thought, closest Premier Inn I can find is in Dalkeith, and that's £220 for 2 nights.

Will need to book it twice about a month apart as there are 2 separate development days - puts the overall cost of the course at best park of £1k factoring in fuel, food and 2 weekends in a hotel.....

Hence the reason I'm looking for cheap, as I can claim the course fees back through the club but not the accommodation etc.

Thanks, checked dates and they're £130/night for the weekends....

 

Half tempted with www.glentressforestlodges.co.uk - camping pod and bike storage for £134 for the 2 nights.

Can't to suggest the forest lodges at glentress, but you've already seen them! You can ride up to inners no problem from there and there's a drying room should you need it!

+1 for forest lodges! Plenty space to have bike inside, acces to stove, microwave and fridge/freezer in the main building, great showers, plenty warm enough inside.
