This, with some nice nosh at the Cold Harbour
Gotta say, the food at the Cold Harbour ain't good from recent exprerince. Stay a the Premier Inn/Travel Lodge (whatever it is at the Cold Harbour) and take a 5 min walk to the Heart In Hand in Blunsdon - would highly recommend it.

Was always good when I've been, but I haven't been for at least 2 years now.

The Premier Inn Blunsdon right on the A419 maybe a good alternative as it has good reviews
We stay there occassionally as its close to my Son and Grandaughters, it is the worst Premier Inn we have ever stayed at, old, tired, 14 in TV's int he room, we now stay at the Kembrey one as its way way better.

Try the Goddard arms aswell
Awful hotel, we have stayed there twice too but never again, old rooms with no storage and wonky floors, 1/10.

The best hotels for price/value are the Village Hotel at West Swindon (clean and cheap) and the The Sun Inn at Coate Water, nice clean and new rooms.

Its a well positioned good quality cheap hotel, me and the wife come up to Swindon probably 8 times a year from a Friday to Monday over the last 3 years so have tried pretty much every main stream and some smaller hotels, we have also hired the Swindon Apartments in Old Town which is good right next door to the Hop Inn, good value if you prefer an apartment to a hotel.

Was so disappointed with the Goddards, we got deals twice there and the first time the bed was broke, the 2nd time the loo seat was broke, the beds were old and there was no storage, it was a good breakfast though, but I could never recommend it to anyone now.

The best value is probably the Sun Inn at Coate TBH as its well placed and the landlord and staff are great.

It's amazing when you look deeper into accommodation local how many choices there are and it's great to Hearn first hand people's experiences. A shame about the Goddards considering it's history and I've never heard of renting an apartment for a couple of days etc

Always go Airbnb now rather than a hotel if I can. Had some excellent places at reasonable prices.
