    Ha ! I WISH ! If it was I'd sell up and move there! £45, but its a very nice place, owners very friendly and helpful.

    I believe the pub next to the crossing at Grosmont do B and B too.

    For a real budget stay - take your tent and camp in a site close to the line at Goathland :)

    Places near to Llangollen are listed on SSS2 website:

    http://www.6880gala.co.uk/Your_visit/Your_visit.html

    I will warn you i know most B&Bs are fully booked within Llangollen itself so you may have to start looking outside of Llan. Don't know how long the above will stay up for after April.

    I was thinking of taking a week off to see some of the South Western preserved lines that were out of reach when I was a kid. I don't drive, so does anyone have any recommendations for a suitable base if I want to visit the Bodmin & Wenford, South Devon and Paignton & Dartmouth railways?
    (I'm a Liverpudlian, so this region is a closed book to me - for now anyway).
    As a non-driver, my options are limited, so I was thinking of maybe findign a B&B in Newton Abbott?

    For the WSR I can recommend Lyn Valley Guest House
    3 Tregonwell Road
    Minehead
    TA24 5DT
    01643 703748
    We always stay there, reasonably priced, a very good breakfast and only 3-4 minutes walk from the station.
    Now can any one suggest some where to stay for the NYMR.

    I'm afraid so. Bit small for growing family and garden too steep for little ones!

    On an associated topic:

    There must be B&B's run by railway enthuiasts and in particular regular volunteers. I have visited the UK twice and the general std of B&B accomadation was excellant, with so many owners making us feel right at home. I must admit to being very wary at the start because B&B's are not common here in Australia- people tend to stay in Motels and it was all a bit strange staying in someones home to me, but in 14 weeks I only struck 2 I was not all that happy with. However, I just thought it would be a lot more interesting for my next trip if I could stay somewhere where there was a common interest, as I am a regular volunteer myself.

    Anybody know of any?
