Visiting Coningsby

Location : Harlow Essex Spotter Watch Member : No

Hi Everyone
I am a 'Newbee' to this site & am impressed. The standard of photography is impressive.
I hope to visit Coningsby for 2 days next week. Are there any better days than others to be there or is it Pot Luck??
Does anyone know a B&B in the area that is inexpensive & gives a good breakfast? Same with an evening meal?
Regards

I don't know why but I find Tuesday/Wednesday to be the best. Give Friday a miss as flying normally ceases at lunch time.
The Bluebell in nearby Tatteshall Thorpe offers great cusine and beers (Highly reccommend the Lincolnshire Ham and Eggs and a pint of Dambuster!!!) Along with loads of 617 sqdrn memorabilia
I am not sure whether they do accomodation but there are a number of static caravans to the rear, if I can find their telephone number I shall PM it to you (No I have no connection to them they just always make us feel welcome when we visit)

Hopefully I shall be over there on the 26th August.

You could push the boat out and stay at the Petwood at Woodhall Spa, if only for the history of the place. You might get to see one of the ghostly residents Shock

you could try The Leagate Hotel at Coningsby, Penny Farthing Pub Timberland or Clifton House B/B Timberland, Timberland is about 9 miles from Coningsby, know people who have stayed at all 3 & were happy
