We have stayed at the Premier Inn which is behind the Green Man at Syresham close to the circuit.

The Premier Inn has basic comfortable accommodation but does not serve any meals. The Green Man is immediately in front of the Premier Inn and this is where you can get breakfast and other meals. It is a popular place to eat so if you plan to dine there book a table.

Travelodge at Towcester is convenient and not too noisy if you get room at back – but no bar or food !

Have once stayed at Silverstone Golf Course hotel which was nice if you can get it at a reasonable price

There is usually bar / BBQ at circuit on the Friday night but no accommodation (Snoozebox seems to have closed down)

From Silverstone's web site, might be worth a look.

Will you be bringing the children, as that might make a difference at some hotels?

Thanks for your help - now booked the premier Inn for Friday 4th. Unfortunately fully booked for the saturday night but we will figure something out for that night.

See you all there!

Will do Techniques trophy and Equipe GTS. Any other Morgans in the latter?

Jochen,
What are your requirements for the Saturday night? I could ask amongst some of the marshals who live locally, and may know of someone nearby doing bed & breakfast, I know that many do for the Grand Prix weekend.

Jochem and Bob,
I used to stay with Mrs. B. Smith, Slapton Manor Farm, Slapton. Towcester. NN121 8PF , about 15 minutes from the circuit.
01327 860344

Many a marshall and driver stay there, and the breakfast is second to none. There is plenty of space for cars and/ or trailers.

Good luck.

Andrew
