Accy Accommodation
 

Can anyone recommend a decent B&B in Accy?

Been studying fixture list since its came out - Fri night v Lincoln looks good, but will drive back home the same night.

However quite fancy also coming down for Morecambe game on New Years day & staying in Accy to see Chesterfield game a couple of days later.

Anyone get any recommendations, please let me know.

Cheers


Col

P.M. wynonie, he sometimes stays at one when he comes oer fer midweek games, he'll tell ya the score, i can't say how good or not it is.;)

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

Try the Hotel-De-Ultra, not too sure of the phone number, but the owner can be found on here sometimes :D

Who is coming down Col??? Up your way around 24th, may pop round and see you!!!! :)

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

Colney House, corner of Hartmann Street and Blackburn Road. Comfy, clean, friendly owners and very reasonable at approx £28 for B&B (including a full English). Only drawback is it's a fair way from the ground, but walkable in under 30 mins, or you can get a cab. :)

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

What about Norwood House opposite the Crown pub......it might be a little more expensive, but it is right across the road from the ground and of course the pub

Maple lodge 10 min walk from ground very nice and clean

Thanks for all responses folks - gives me something to go on.

Just so you guys know, Norwood is one of the worst B&B's ever - which is a pity when, as stated earlier, its close proximity to the ground makes it an otherwise ideal place to stay. A quick check on tripadvisor will reveal all you need to know about their nutball owner!

Joe - by all means, pop in. I'm actually down in Morecambe on 21st & 22nd, but will be free anytime after that. (if you need me to re-send directions just let me know). Likely to be my dad coming down for new year games but hopeful that Danielle will join me for Lincoln game.

cheers colmeister, just had a sneck at trip advisor, certainly won't be tellin me mates to stop yon when they come oer.:eek:

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

Cheers Col, will be in touch!!

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

I would be quite wary of the reviews on trip advisor.
We have been to some places which had awful reviews on trip advisor and found that they were nothing like the reviews portrayed.

Now, if your views have been formed as a result of a personal experience, or that of someone you actually know, then that is different.
But don't just take the word of the reviewers on trip advisor.

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

Still sticking by my original recommendation. Brilliant value for money, friendly owners. Only major drawback is a lack of pubs in that area these days. Still, a cab's easier enough to get, after a few beers in the Crown or Oak Lea.

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

Anyone know this 'Stuart', the owner?

Get him to join Accy Web.

:D

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

OFSTED inspectors have been known to stay here and praise it no end. Not sure on price though.

Margaret - agreed, had cause to be wary of tripadvisor in past - but often when such a large amount of people are saying the same thing, there tends to be at least an element of truth to it. Sadly I did have the midfortune of staying there last year and his attitude was absolutely appaling. Would never return.

Wynonie - I have a feeling I might have stayed at the place you mentioned a couple of years ago - it was a bit further out but the place itself was nice. Had a massive staircase if memory serves.

Being further out not a prob anyway as I'll probably be popping into Peel Park for a couple pre-match.

Re: Accy Accommodation
 

It's a high staircase, as it's a three-storey building, so you've probably got the right place. If you're going up the Peel Park, you'll definitely need to get a cab. Worth a try, anyway.
