Just to let people know attending Japfest if you are planning to stay at a hotel the night before, the nearest hotel is the Premier Inn at Cepen Park Chippenham.
http://www.premierinn.com/en/exploreSearch.action
I have just booked our room and they currently have 64 rooms still available.
Cost Is £71.00 per room per night. You can contact them on 0871 527 8244 Opt 3. You just need card details to hold the booking and then pay on arrival.
There is a very good Beefeater place alongside the hotel.
That\'s extortionate for a premier inn - I stayed at the one up the road last year for £29!!!
This year I have booked in at a small place, a few miles north east of the track, double room is £55 including full English breakfast - so I would suggest looking around a bit before you book ;)

Hi Marcus
Do you want to share the details?
Only an assumption , but guessing most hotels will know that it\'s jap fest that weekend, I doubt your will get much cheaper so close.
There is a travel lodge in Devizes with a subway if anyone wants to slum it, lol
Only 2years old , so shouldnt be that bad. About 15 miles from Combe
Would be cool if we can all sort out the same place like we do with Cadwell. Can get a meal in night before :D
Shaun
Im up for that are people taking the wives or are we on a pass?
Sorry Lisa, I didn\'t have the details at hand - it\'s called the Cross ways or something, and they only had a handful of rooms available (it\'s only a small hotel)
I had a snout around the local area last year and found it ;)

How about this place?
Guyers House Hotel (http://www.guyershouse.com/)
Not as cheap as Cadwell at £70 (single) or £80 (double) p/night, including full English. It looks a better deal than Premier Inn, which is room only? 37 rooms, plus a bar and restaurant too. Restaurant might be pricey, but bar meals from £8.95, otherwise could eat nearby somewhere. Quite close to Castle Combe, about 6 miles by the back roads I reckon.
Hope this link to Tripadvisor works CLICK HERE (http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g209966-d1449842-Reviews-Guyers_House_Hotel-Corsham_Wiltshire_England.html)
Very tempted.........any else got a view?
^^I\'ve just paid for a single room at the Guyers, £70 with Full English.
Used booking.com;LINK HERE (http://www.booking.com/hotel/gb/guyers-house-conference-centre.en-gb.html?)
There\'s no cancellation charge, so if something else comes up I can easily cancel. Just wanted to get something sorted before I forgot.
Lisa - thanks for starting this thread, I hadn\'t got around to thinking about accommodation but needed to!
Booked a Single too :D
Shaun
Booked at Cepen Park Chippenham. 69.00 booked on internet, no brekie but nice and close
The Guyers House Hotel have just confirmed thay can provide an early cooked breakfast service from about 6.30-6.45am on Sat 11th May, to allow us to depart early. Single rooms at £70, or £80 for a double if booked via //www.booking.com. Both rates inc full English breakfast :Thumbs-up
Guyers House is fully booked. Just managed to get a room at Premier Inn at Cepen Park !!
Guess I\'ll see you all at the track.

^^^ Chris; Guyers has 13 rooms left for the Friday night, but I\'ve just checked and there are none left for the Saturday night, so I guess you were looking at more than just the one night?
