Hi @zedwheels, @La_vida_diver, @Bazza back off our hols and just been catching up on this thread. We're actually staying at the Travelodge in Penrith not the Premier Inn. The address is A66 Redhills, Penrith CA11 0DT and leaving at about 10:30 on the Friday morning will be fine. Google reckon its 170 miles / 3 hours via the A74(M) or we could go 190 miles / 4 hours via the A7 we can decide on the day.
As for eating on the Thursday night the hotel website says 'Guests can enjoy a variety of food and drink choices within easy walking distance from this hotel.' so we'll see what is available when we get there. We will have each others numbers to co-ordinate a meet time and place.
Not long now...
