My dad is doing the 6-hour trip to Snett (from Okehampton

) - nutter!
Anyway, he was looking at stopping in the Travelodge on the A11 (about 20 miles from Snett).
Does anyone know of a better place for him and his missus to stay Friday & Saturday nights? Maybe a bit nearer to Snett?
He may decide to stop near the M3 on friday night if they get away late.
£50 a night sort of touch and not a pub or someones sofa!!
Thanks
