    Any recommendations please ? Thought about booking this now or is that necessary ?
    Many thanks,

    There are no Premier inns within reasonable reach with available rooms and Travel lodge only have one local hotel in Burton on Trent but thats still over 9 miles away. Any locals give us some idea of other options.

    MM hotels

    Hi John/Gary

    I live in Ashby so I am not familiar with hotels in Melbourne but Chris H lives at Ticknall which is very close to Melbourne so I will ask Chris to get in touch

    Seller Details & Stop-Overs

    Hi John.

    Fresh back from the shoot yesterday evening and it's great news that Melbourne are to be hosting the Fayre this year.

    If possible I have a couple of rifles I'd like to bring along to the 'bring & buy', details when you have time please.

    I notice there is alot of interest in the fayre and people wishing to stop over, just thought the following may help!

    Days Inn Donington (A50)
    A50 Westbound Shardlow, Derby DE72 2WW
    01332 799666 ‎
    daysinn.co.uk

    Also there is a cheaper alternative below:

    Travel Lodge
    Pride Park
    Derby...

    This lodge is less than 20mins from the venue at Melbourne.

    Hope this may be of assistance to any interested parties...

    Wizard.
