Re: Darklands Sherwood GT 2022

People, Iv'e just checked the hotel website, and you can book a tripple room for 3 people for the weekend and it works out at £60 per night for each person, so only £3 pound more than thr discounted twin, so it may be more cost effective to do it that way if there are mroe than 2 of you coming.
