Greekman Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I quite fancy taking the missus for the weekend 24-25th of October to a log cabin around Yorkshire....countryside, nice walks, hot tubs and so on..... But there is absolutely nothing available!!!!! You have to book about 2 months in advance!!! Everybody is going on about credit crunch and stuff...but how can so many people afford £500 accommodation for a weekend away in October??? Quote
Greekman Posted October 9, 2009 Author Posted October 9, 2009 you tried the ones in the lake district? tried hoseasons and there are a couple in devon and cornwall!!! i was thinking a couple of hours from Hull....dales, moors and coast, lincoln, up to Shipley area....nothing... Quote
nixy Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 what about a centre parks? I've never been but heard they are quite nice for couples? Failing that for £500 you can spend the weekend at my house, have my massive bedroom with ensuite and i will do a fantastic breakfast! Quote
srobrien Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Try bonnie Scotland, there are some lovely cabins around aviemore and royal deeside. R Quote
Arkwright Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 www.sherwoodcastle.co.uk just off the A614 near Ollerton. Notts. Very quiet. Log cabins set round a lake, never stopped there but popped in to spy out the land. Quote

nixy Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Oh great stuff! Shame i missed out on the £500 though! Quote
Lexx Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Failing that for £500 you can spend the weekend at my house, have my massive bedroom with ensuite and i will do a fantastic breakfast! I dont think spending a romantic night with you in your massive bedroom was quite what he had in mind for him and his partner! lol Quote

Greekman Posted October 9, 2009 Author Posted October 9, 2009 I was thinking me sleeping in the garage out of earshot actually! That prob woudnt be enough.... Quote
BulletMagnet Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 When I saw this thread, I was expecting toilet humour, not actual log cabins... Does that make me weird? Quote

BladesGrant Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I recently stayed in Pod in the Lake district. Its described as camping without the tent. It was very close to the 'Go Ape' in the lakes as I went there the next morning. Quote
