Hi,
I'm staying at Melbourne View Hotel, Station Road | Ramsley Fields, Melbourne DE73 8BR.
Stayed there a couply of years ago & all good.
I think you can also hire space in outbuilding to keep car in overnight.

Great stuff JK, thanks for all the info...

Pretty sure I'll be well enough to attend by then and with the Z. Have booked at Crossroads (aka Ceders) for Fri and Sat this time, yaye!.. . Always a great crowd at the event as well as Crossroads and looking forward to it very much. I've booked a twin room this time, only a couple of quid more and it leaves room for any late comers or a place to crash is anyone so happens to join us at Ceders last minute and tries to keep up with Chris and Jake's binge drinking.. lol... haha.. luv ya guys, it should be a hoot, although I do plan to be moderate this year!.. haha..

Now there's an offer worth building your strength up for Tim, although I fear that could be the last we ever see of you :EXTRAlol:
You may be better off taking your chances in the bar with me and Jake :D

I have booked a twin room for us at the Cedars for Friday and Saturday night, it is possible that we fly over for this event, as there are a group of Irish Z/ZX owners going to take a road trip to Silverstone in July for the 50th Birthday celebration, so 2 road trips is a bit expensive and tiring. I hope to organise the July trip this week.

If you want a nice quiet calm night I would Recommend the Crossroads Motel aka Cedars Hotel it is so peaceful and relaxing and it is as cheap as chips
But then with regards to the peaceful and relaxing part My nose it getting long and longer with each lie I tell
