You may wish to stay overnight before the race, but a two-night stay would let you really enjoy our picturesque countryside, historic buildings and other tourist attractions. Below is a selection of establishments at various distances from the marathon start. The contact numbers are applicable when calling from the UK. If calling from outside the UK, the country code is +44 and the first 0 of the number should not be dialled.
Prices and room types are a guide only. The list is in no particular order at present but we plan to rate them for 2007 using your feedback.
