Title: Accommodation for RIAT 08
Post by: Sully on May 07, 2008, 10:53:34 pm
Hi all,

Heading to RIAT for the first time this year and very excited!  :tounge: Problem is I don't know where to stay and I know its a little late to be looking. Flying into Bristol and getting the train to Swindon. Thinking shuttle bus from Swindon is handy so hoping to stay around there. Any suggestions greatly appreciated?

Cheers..

You'd really want to get cracking with the hotel booking, not much room left....

If you could hire a car you could move a bit further out of town and get a room, Swindon and it's surrounds are pretty full.

You're leaving it a bit late, so you would want to get a move on.  You may want a hotel, but if you only want a B&B you could try the Leftwich Manor Guest House in Swindon, we stayed there last year and will be again this year.  B&B's are OK, after all its only some where to sleep and there is a Pub right next door.

Might be of interest.
