Bath, Bristol and Swindon is the set I usually aim for. Sometimes Tewksbury, Warwick, Coventry, etc.

Its generally Bath and Swindon I'm keeping an eye on for a ~£100-£125 room opening up. I reckon that ~30% of the time I'd like a room at one of those but it isn't available a week or so before one will appear later, and often on the day.
