I'm guessing that the price has gone up so much at the Premier Inn because a number of us have already booked a room. I'm just staying for the Friday night and it cost me £90. Maybe you can find something else nearby?Dear God - £272 for 2 nights in a Premier Inn?For us (with fuel from Preston, meals, drinks etc.) we would be talking at least £400. I'd love to attend but not sure have that to spare
(Not a complaint about where it is BTW before somebody jumps on me. It is where it is and were it 'oop 'north, a corresponding number of people would have the same issue)
