  • The Sugar Loaf, is a pub in the centre of town.
  • Cubes, is a nightclub in the centre of town. Is expensive and not very good.
  • Bar Chameleon, Across from the Sugar Loaf. There is a line to get into this place on a Friday night.  edit
  • Norman King, Next to the Old Palace Lodge. Easy walk back to the Old Palace Lodge. This place was built in 1109.  edit
  • The Gary Cooper, Behind the Asda. This is a Wetherspoon "chain" restaurant. Better pub food than some of the offerings in town. Also largest menu in town which includes some pasta and wider range of meat dishes.  edit
  • Limpini, just south of City Center. Good Thai food alternative if you are tired of pub food.  edit

[edit][add listing] Sleep

  • The Old Palace Lodge, Church Street - Across from the Church. Upscale hotel. Excellent staff. Rooms have been remodeled in the past couple of years - i.e. flat screen tv with dvd attachment. Pillows weren't the best and the shower pressure was pretty weak. Price was about 100 GBP per nights but great long-term rates. The price included a cold buffet and hot breakfast. There has been a building at this location since the 1100s - when Henry I built a palace here.  edit
