I came across some great deals with Hotel du Vin for double rooms over the December/ January holiday period. Newcastle is the cheapest I found at £44 and most are at £49. These rates are non-refundable.
A few tips:
If you are booking via the Hotel du Vin site and you attempt to abandon the booking, you should get a pop-up asking you to continue the booking to receive a free glass of wine each ;p
Alternatively, most of the rooms seem to be available on hotels.com (which is where I booked mine), currently quoting £51 giving 12.12% cashback on topcashback for mobile bookings, reducing the cost by another 6 quid or so per room, reducing the price to £45. (I made my two bookings separately clearing cookies in between and both sets of cashback have already tracked).
I booked:
Saturday 17 December - three doubles at Poole for £45 each after cashback
Friday 30 December - one double at Wimbledon for £45 after cashback
Play around with the dates to see what you can find. I took a look through before posting this to check other dates I noticed at around £49 on the official site included:
Sunday 2 January (remember next day is a bank holiday) - Poole, Wimbledon, Tunbridge Wells, Cheltenham, Cambridge, Birmingham, Henley, Windsor, Bristol, Brighton, Harrogate, York. Newcastle is cheapest at £44.
Friday 30 December - Poole, Wimbledon, Birmingham, Winchester
Tuesday 27 December - Wimbledon, Birmingham
Wednesday 28 December - Poole, Wimbledon, Birmingham, Tunbridge Wells
Thursday 29 December - Wimbledon, Birmingham, Tunbridge Wells
Friday 23 December - Wimbledon, Brighton, Birmingham, Cambridge, York, Winchester, Henley
Saturday 17 December - Poole, Wimbledon
Note: if you require a twin room, the only hotel I saw with twins at the cheapest price was Brighton.
Hope this helps someone get themselves a nice Christmassy break!

Stick to the Travelodge mate, you'll feel much more at home there. Leaving the great value rooms in the nice hotels for us!

You can't even get a Travelodge room in Poole for £49; this is a bargain!
Enjoy your mini breaks OP :smiley:

Got a night in Edinburgh in December for better half's birthday, £49! Will see if Quidco tracks at 6%... Not bad for the price, will be nice to head across to the capital without worrying about car parking (and limiting alcohol intake!) nor last trains and buses!
Thanks OP, usually these sort of deals never work out for me (wrong dates, poor availability) but for once I got something suitable!
