My wife and I are planning a trip to the UK to see ailing elderly
relatives probably for the last time.  We are going to have to go on
the cheap and are looking for clean, economical hotels within an easy
drive of Hartlepool/Seaton Carew.

Although this is not exactly the forum, we are also looking for
similar within an easy drive of Bournemouth, which is where the other
elderly couple lives.

We will probably do a lot of picnicking, so any recommendations on
easy to reach pie shops and fish and chip shops in either area is also
requested as is advice on other forums to try.

Many thanks in advance.
