Overnight stop at pembroke on the way to the ferry, but that's only one night. Same location, spent a very pleasant three nights whilst holidaying around the Tenby area. All we wanted was a crash pad every night for us and the kids. A very good holiday made all the more satisfactory by the price we paid for accomodation. Have you ever actually stayed in a Travelodge?

That would be this one? http://www.travelodge.co.uk/search_and_book/hotel_overview.php?hotel_id=98 The fact that the address is given as "A40 roundabout" kinda makes my point, I think. > Have you ever actually stayed in a Travelodge? Yes, thank you. It was on a roundabout off the A14. Which is kinda my point. That's not my idea of a holiday destination.

But Holiday Inn and Premier Inn both do full english breakfasts though they're usually not included in the room price. As a hotel my personal preference is for holiday inn , they're slightly more upmarket but they also cost slightly more so you pays your money... B2003
