Taz, have you checked if Travelodge will take bikes?

Travelodge in Feltham will take anything, no staff to be seen, automated check in etc, the place is a dump.

Going to try some more Premier inns, already have one free night

I am travelling from Devon to Burton on Trent shortly, I've always wanted to visit because of its brewery connections While I'm, " up north " I thought I would vist my ancestral town of Halifax for a couple of nights. Does anyone know of a decent pub or inn that does B&B, not too expensive as I am a Yorkshire Man Perhaps CG would have some ideas, but possibly not his local as I am too old to fight.

Premier Inn and pub just off J25 of the M62 at Brighouse. Gone, 2007 TD4 SE Auto Baltic blue, clear side repeaters, full sized alloy spare.

English by birth..... Yorkshire by the grace of God.

don't like staying away from home................unless you need the money, and/or have no choice,.

Premier Inns, started to use them on advice from here, just earned two free nights on the back of it too, so a weekend away in the Lakes this coming weekend with free accomodation.

Always clean and tidy so far, you know what you are getting which after a long drive is always welcome. The food establishments adjoining them are also reasonable.

If you want a budget hotel there is a Premier inn at Salterhebble, A Travelodge in The Old Crossley complex at Dean Clough. The Imperial Crown on Horton Street and The Mulcture Hotel nearby are " Pubby" but personaly I always book visitors into the Shibden Mill Inn which can cost less than a Premier Inn on occassions , and has the major advantage of not being in the centre of Halifax , Lovely Coaching Inn, located in Shibden Valley and has a really nice bar menu if you win the lottery before you come Holdsworth House is the way to go, ! 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Why is it that all these places sound so nice and make you interested even though you didn't want to go there?

Nice drive out in the FL2

always used to use laterooms.com when I was on the road - you can get cashback from some sites too

Thanks for all the suggestions especially MartynB. I liked the look of the Shibden Mill Inn but it was full on my dates Have settled on the Wool Merchant Hotel on 19 &20 March, they were willing to negotiate on the price and I got a good deal

Brilliant, hope you are not disappointed in what Halifax is today, there are a lot of stunning places within 10 minutes drive of the town centre, and fantastic places to eat in the surrounding countryside. Just one tip avoid the Sportsmans Inn ( ski slope) on Bradford old road , it's Chav central carvery land. as previously said the Mill Inn in Shibden Valley( where the nice people live ) is great for lunch , as are the bar meals at the Black Horse in Clifton near Brighouse, both also have fine dining restraunt options, but at the latter on the last time I went I had a black pudding starter, then a home cooked fresh battered haddock Ciabbata sandwich - Yorkshire gastro or what !. The Kashmir on Morley St in Bradford for a proper £7 "dirty" curry experience( don't use the loos there !!), then blast down the 62 to leeds to Brasserie Blanc to blow a Hundred quid to make it up to the Mrs for the Kashmir ! - all bases covered  2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership
