Travelers to England, Others have talked about B&Bs and other options. We have a thought about rental cars. It may be significantly cheaper to rent the car from your own country BEFORE arriving in England. It certainly was from the USA. So it is well worth making a few phone calls before hand and ask the car rental people. In addition, if you pay for the rental with a gold card, one of the benefits of a gold car is rental car insurance. Between renting in the United States and not having to accept the extra insurance that the rental agency in England would have added on, the price difference was the equivalent of $5,000 in England and $2,000 from the US with a gold card. Sorry we don't recall the name of the extra insurance but telephone your gold card provider. They will be able to tell you all about it. Godfrey & Merry Ellis OPCs for Crewkerne & Timsbury in Somerset
