Jono 46 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I can't get any search engines to bring up what I'm after. My Servce boss is coming over to update his certs in Jan. He'll be going to Ocean Safety, Spinlock on the IOW and down to Baltic in the Hamble. I'm cheap and the NZ peso doesn't go far. Who has an awesome little pub or B and B they use??

cms 566 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 If he is into sailing, check out the bedrooms at the Royal Southern. He can walk to Baltic, get the bus into town for the Redjet (or bum/borrow a RIB at the Club) and I am sure we can organise a lift to Saxon Wharf (Ocean Safety) if needed. http://www.royal-southern.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites

Who has an awesome little pub or B and B they use?? with the way the pound has gone these last few weeks he could probably stay in a five star hotel in London and get a taxi down to Southampton and you wouldn't be seriously out of pocket, if you are paying in a ahrd currecny like the New Zealand Dollar.....

Heavy Woman 0 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 the other bonus of staying in Hamble is that he can enjoy the villages excellent hospitality - if the southern is a bit pricey you could try the farthings, though not sure how much cheaper that is and try sticking Satchell Lane B&B's Hamble into google, that might help. Failing that if he goes to Boomers each night, I'm sure he'll be able to find someone drunk enough to lend him their sofa! HW Link to post Share on other sites

I have done the seamans mission in So´ton some years ago. Fine place. Not expensive and as far as I remember, it was within walking distance to "Fridays". smooth traveling M Link to post Share on other sites

HW On the other hand a FULL set of innoculations will be required before arrival; liver transplant, delousing, tattoo and piercing removal, second identity, tummy tuck and facelift, two to three weeks in a good health farm, and ownership of a "safe" house required upon leaving.... If you want to survive, that is.... Link to post Share on other sites

Jono 46 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 I'm sending him to work! I'm a bit out of date as my last trip was for the Jubilee in 01. Greg's not a true yachtie but he's one of the best at packing rafts and PFDs. He's better off at Southampton rather than the Hamble as he has to do a Portsmouth run one day as well. I'll try the directory. The folk at OS had a couple of places too but their budget was a bit higher than mine. Thanks all. Link to post Share on other sites
Jem 0 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 You could usefully look at the local tourist office they can often be very helpful for city accommodation in the UK, one in most towns... Quietly ask their advice on where they would stay J Link to post Share on other sites
JimC 698 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I've used the Premier Inn chain a couple of times lately. The ones I've been to were cheapish, cheerfullish, clean, and low hassle to book. http://www.premierinn.com Link to post Share on other sites
