We'll be in Bristol for 2 nights in the beginning of September. Where should I stay? What hotel would you recommend? Restaurants? Which sights should I not miss while I'm there? Thanks for your help.

did they ever pinpoint the source of the Hum?

We will be flying from the States to London and then by train to Bristol. Would it more expeditious to travel to Bristol from Heathrow or Gatwick?

Hi!
I'm an Erasmus student, and I am going to live in Bristol for six months.
I found a beautiful house in Kellaway Road, which seems a quiet place but it is close to Gloucester Road and Southmead, which I heard are dangerous areas.
Do you think Kellaway Road is dangerous as well to live?

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I am a German student of history planning to be on an internship in Bristol from the 10th of February till the 10th of March. Now I am desperately looking for some cheap accommodation - a shared flat would be great - rather close to the town centre.
Basically, all I need is some space to roll out my sleeping bag; I do not necessarily need my own room nor a proper bed. I am very unpretentious, very flexible and most of the time, I am fun person to be with :-)

Hope that anybody is able to help me. You can also contact me via

Thanks to everyone and best wishes,

I am going to come in Bristol 3/4 days for the end of the year 2007 with a friend.

For me it's very important to find a vibrant nightlife.
We are italians so we don't need a few drinks. What about the cost to "come in " in the clubs?

Last year i have been in the south, in Bournemouth, the accomodation it wasn't cheaper but the cost of the nightlife was good, 1/2 pouds for "come in" and only in the weekend,so also the cost of the drinks was good of our local standards.

I need any useful information about Bristol clubbing nightlife. thanks

hello,
i'm looking for any cheap accommodation in Bristol for a couple of students in 19 and 20. november.

what would you recommend ?

I'm moving to Bristol at the end of the month and I love to go to car boot sales.
Anyone know of any in and around Bristol?
I searched on google and only found some in another forum of 2005, bit out of date now.
One mentioned was in Bradley Stoke (where I'm actually moving to), is this still going? Is it any good?
I'm thinking that looking in the local papers once I get there might be the way to go....?

Thanks for any help.

Hi, me and my friend are coming to Bristol next weekend. We really enjoy intimate old pubs with a nice athmosphere. We are staying in the old city. Help, please? Also where in the old city would you take your lover for a romantic dinner. Not too expensive, and jeans allowed ;-)

I have been searching high and low even been to get on the housing list, I was woundering the cheapest way (except for living on the streets) can I live in Bristol? if anyone knows any cheap places for rent please let me know.

Hi we are a family of 5 moving to the Bristol arriving in April 2007.

There are a few questions.

Does anyone know of:

1) A safe caravan park
2) Caravan parks that have what I understand to be permanent dwellings that can be rented I understand for about 150pounds a week.
3) Any civil engineering or construction companies in the Bristol area.
4) Cottages available on short term rent, I think this is usually done on a weekly basis.
5) Good primary schools for the children to attend.

Regards

hi,

Grew up in Bristol, only been back a few times, and am planning a reunion for a weekend in july. Although getting too old for it, we fancy a night out clubbing. Pubs we can just revisit old haunts, but clubbing has probalby changed beyond all recognition. I'd like something more dancy, but still quite big, along the lines of Fabric in london. Does such a place exist? Any going out tips appreciated. I saw 'the Depot' reviewed on "Doc Strange" VT sight. Any more info on it? Any tips welcome, seems funny asking VT about a UK place!

can you please tell me the best way to get to parkway station from the airport and if it is taxi approx cost-----thanks

please can someone suggest me a hotel in the centr of the city? i don't want to pay more than 75 euros per night. is there any?
thanx in advance!

I currentley live in London, but considering moving up to Bristol (quite soon, possibly). I would be looking to move into a shared house in one of the nicer areas, and hoping to get work asap. I'm temping at the moment but this is my last week, but can't afford to leave it too long as I don't want to spend any unnecessary amounts of money. Any agencies that you could recommend that I could get in touch with?

Thanks in advance

Hi, Has anyone stayed at this hotel? The webpage makes it sound very good- Booked in for a night in October (attending a meeting, with 5 colleagues, so We're all curious to hear any personal comments)
Best Wishes,

SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH. I´M LEARNED!

I will stay in Bristol for a year, I will go in September, the next month, but I don´t have accomodation. I´ve seen pages about accomodation like www.accomodationstudents.com, and pages about hall of residence in Bristol, but I don´t know if there is a place avalaible for me, if I´am not english, and I´m not student. I find something cheaper for a year. I´m desperate!!

Hi there

I'm looking for an apartment to rent for two days in November, with a group of 5 friends. We're all professional girls looking to have a nice, fun, pampering weekend.

Ideally, we would like an apartment to sleep 4-6 of us, as we can also bring along some airbeds if necessary. Where should I look? Days Inn has no availability for the weekend in question.

Thanks in advance!
