We are planning a family reunion trip to a village called Moreton Pinkney where all our family originated from.

We are trying to find a reasonably priced place to stay for the Saturday night. Trouble is when you don't know the area we don't know how far away some of the places are.

Anyone got any suggestions.? We know there was a pub in the village but it closed down last year. We want to be as near as possible to the village

Thanks

Nearest places are Brackley or Banbury. Would suggest www.yell.com and search for hotels in both areas

Researching:
Evans, Radnorshire, Herefordshire,Cheshire. Jones, Breconshire. Lewis, Herefordshire.

Towcester would be a far and away a better bet - far Better than Banbury .

depends which direction you are travelling from,to an extent.

lots of B&B in Towcester as long as you arent planning on F1 weekend!
if you want to flash the cash - stay at Whittlebury hall!

£29 per room per nighthttp://www.ukhotel.com/heart-of-england/towcester-silverstone-travelodge.htm

Google travelodge, or similar chain.........they may have something in the vicinity, and their prices are usually reasonable
