I think, it's a hotel standard.
Honestly, in my opinion Cranage isn't that expensive in comparison to other hotels.
For now, it's free entry, free parking. You never know, might be free food and free drinks in the future.

I seem to recall that I ordered a couple of turkey sandwiches and a pint of Boddy's and it was almost twenty quid. They were good sandwiches though.
It is a goof show though and a really good venue. I heartily endorse it and hope to attend. I will wrap some jam sandwiches in clingfilm and smuggle them in.
The sandwiches weren't some British Rail things sat on a tray under a plastic dome. They made them up for me specially with the bread just lightly toasted like I asked. Mind, you can get the same or better in America* and it would be about 8 dollars plus tip.
(*excluding the eastern cities where they will gouge your ass in anywhere even half posh).
Presuming Martin's recollection of the prices is correct, I'd agree it's pricey, which is why I fill myself up with a (very enjoyable) all-day breakfast at this place, 5 mins down the road from me: https://www.whitbreadinns.co.uk/the-...and-restaurant
...enjoying one of these for £8: https://www.whitbreadinns.co.uk/the-...ited-breakfast
You get the choice of (unlimited and very good quality) full English breakfast, with unlimited continental breakfast too, running alongside it, including tea, coffee (and cappuccino), orange juice, etc. I have that around 9am, then make my way along to Cranage Hall, suitably sated for the day, which is less than 40 mins away - job done! :cool:
There are stacks of these types of establishments all over the country, so find one local to you and simply 'fuel up' before going to the show, and your wallet will be happier!
