Is it pretty decent? I hate travel inns with a passion so would prefer a b&b or something like that..

depends very much how much you want to spend; I live less than 5 mins from Alton Towers.

Do you want cheap and cheerful or a B&B or hotel or farmhouse.

I know quite a few as used to manage one of the biggest pubs close to the Towers

There's now a Travel Lodge in Ashbourne which is closer to Alton Towers than Uttoxeter and has a pretty good nightlife/selection of restaurants etc.

Missus runs this place which is 10mins away

Green Man is right in the centre of Ashbourne with loads of pubs/bars/cellar bar/shops/restaurants close by

alternatively, the Travel lodge which was only finished a month ago is about 1/2mile from the centre
