Your best bet is probably the local tourist information - it's a good source in the UK

I am not sure if this is the closest to Stonleigh but you could start here

Can't recommend a particular place to stay but if you don't mind going with a branded chain then Premier Inn is normally pretty good

The only thing to watch out for is how close it is to a main road (can be quite noisy if right next to a motorway) but the website normally states this.

Normally had a pleasant stay with them.

Almost forgot....one year me and the missus stayed in a B&B in Warwick which isn't too far away from the show plus it's quite a nice historic town with it's own castle if you're into that sort of thing.

Can't remember the name of it unfortunately but there are plenty of B&B's in Warwick if you do a google.

Cheers, John

There are two options on site.....there is the Stoneleigh Park lodge

http://www.stoneleighparklodge.com/

Currently fully booked for the Saturday but may be worth contacting.

There is also another 'hostel' type accommodation on site, which I used in the Dart days and was really cheap (think about £20/night). Bit basic - share facilities, etc - but on site so you can join us for a beer!

Will you be hiring a car or relying on public transport?
That could change where to stay.

There's a few nice B&Bs in Kenilworth which is only about 5 miles from the show ground.
Also the Chesford Grange hotel isnt far away, but might be a bit pricey for you.

Can't believe I was entertaining the idea of staying in a tent...must have been halucinating of something (have been a bit under the weather )

searching for 5 star hotels in Wawickshire area

Hi Eddy, was thinking of hiring a car, because I'm not sure public transit travels from Birmingham to Stoneleigh, do you know if it does?

How far is keilworth from Birmingham Airport ? will check for B&bs in kenilworth...

Thanks
