Premier Travel Inn - Preston East

Advantages: close to the motorway, cheap
Disadvantages: TOO close to the motorway!

...We have recently travelled up to Scotland from Devon and on the way home needed to break up the 12 hour journey. We stopped at Premier Travel Inn - Preston East. This Travel Inn is literally right beside the southbound motorway near junction 31a northbound. We were travelling Southbound, so had to come off at junction 31, join the northbound and come off at junction 31a. PRICE ++++++ We paid £48 for a room which is Friday to Sunday rates. Monday to Thursday would cost £51. BOOKING ++++++++ We had an AA Road Atlas with us and also a directory of all the Premier Travel Inn's in the country.

ESSENTIAL SCOTLAND GUIDES - The North-East

Advantages: Too many to mention.
Disadvantages: Too few to worry about.

Here’s one of a series of “ESSENTIAL SCOTLAND” guides to this amazing place… What We Mean By The “North and North East” The North and North East of Scotland usually refers to the area around Aberdeen (my home!) on the second “bulge” of Sco...

Review of General: Scotland

Scotland's newest city

Advantages: More to do than I imagined
Disadvantages: It's really far away for me

...is a big Marks and Spenser which also has a supermarket so you can clothes and food shop at the same time. I was happy to see that there was a lot of clothes shops for girls as well as a pretty big branch of Waterstones. I couldn't have been happier shopping here. As soon as I arrive in Stirling, we always go out for some lunch considering I have usually been travelling for at least 5 hours and am starving by this time. Stirling has plenty of choice for everyone in regards to food and restaurants. Round the corner from the train station is a McDonalds if you want a cheap and easy option or if you need to rush before getting a bus somewhere. There are also plenty of pubs within walking distance from the train station so again, you can find somewhere pretty reliable for a cheap and easy meal.
