Nice Accommodation This Sat Near Sheff

philyyy · 07-05-2009, 08:57

I'm thinking of going away for one night only, this Saturday. I don't want to drive too far but would like somewhere nice or maybe different, somewhere for a walk or just a relax. I have some cash but no ideas. Can anyone reveal any near(ish), unknown hidden gems?

what about hellaby hall? Or maybe aston hall?

both really nice hotels.

The Castle Pub in Castleton and the one opposite it (can't remember the name) both do lovely food and gorgeous countryside. Takes me about 20 mins to get there.

I know it's odd but I was looking to go somewhere other than the Peaks. I'll check Hellaby Hall out.

What about Lincoln? About 1.5hrs drive, is that too far?

Its a nice place to spend some time. Fantastic cathedral, castle is well worth a visit and lots of bars and places to eat down by the canal basin.

Do you want countryside or a city?

Rother Valley park! hire a boat and go for a sail. Sure there's a hotel round there.

Can also recommend the Castle Pub , great evening away good pub food and some of the rooms have jacuzzi/spa baths but have to be booked , if i remember right breakfast was included in the room price I thing its around £70 for the room

I was thinking countryside, maybe Huddersfield way for a change.

Hellaby is nice if you like Council estates and industrial park. The grounds aren't that big and the surrounding area is not nice.

Not there then.

tizhimi · 07-05-2009, 11:14

I'm out of ideas for nice hotelly places near there then. East Yorkshire has a lot to offer.

Ackworth is quite a pretty little place, and Carleton/Pontefract isnt bad. Dont think I'd take a trip there myself but it aint bad. This place looks well

Smallshaw looks lovely and it has been added to my growing list of favourites but unfortunately they need a minimum of 3 nights.

tizhimi · 07-05-2009, 18:02

gosh they aint moving with the times - don't they know there is a ressession on!?

philyyy · 07-05-2009, 19:30

It's not a complaint abut the 3 nights, I couldn't be bothered to clean every day either.
