Stopped over on Friday evening after attending the NEC Motorhome and Caravan Show – warm welcome at The Boat, lovely dinner and a welcome drink after walking around the show all day. Friendly locals and live music (a guy and guitar) very peaceful area and had a great nights sleep. Will definitely be back sometime
