Travel Lodge Southampton

The Travel Lodge, Southampton is a hotel that provides its guests with comfortable, good quality but affordable accommodation.  Although the rooms may feel somewhat basic they still offer their guests en-suite facilities as well as a TV and tea/coffee making facilities in them as well. 

Certainly if you are looking to spend a couple of days exploring this town and are on a limited budget then staying here is ideal.  It is located within easy distance of the town centre and so provides you with the ideal base for exploring all that the town has to offer.

Just like many of the other major seaports on the South coast of England, Southampton is a town with a large maritime history.  A visit to the Quay in Southampton and here you will find the Maritime Museum which is housed in the only woolhouse in Southampton that dates back to medieval times (the 1400's).

It is inside this museum you will find housed one of the largest of all maritime collections in this part of England.  Along with information relating to the history of Southampton docks, it is here you will find a good collection of items relating to one of the world's most famous liners "The Titanic" as well.

However, if the kids are a little bored of ships then take them off to Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre, which can be found on Southampton Common, which is in the very heart of the city.  Here they will find things that will interest them and learn more about what farming is really like.
