Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Brough cost?
Budget hotel prices in Brough vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper.

Which area of Brough is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking cheap hotels in Brough, the most practical approach is to look for accommodation in the surrounding towns and villages, as Brough itself is quite small and has limited options. Nearby towns like Hull or Beverley offer a greater selection of affordable hotels, guesthouses, and B&Bs, often with good transport links back to Brough.

Hull, a larger city just a short train ride from Brough, provides a wider range of budget accommodation. Solo travellers can find numerous inexpensive hotels and guesthouses, particularly around the city centre or near the train station. Hull also offers plenty of free attractions, such as the Maritime Museum, Ferens Art Gallery, and the Museum Quarter, making it an excellent base for exploring the region without overspending.

Alternatively, Beverley, a charming market town a little further north, offers a quieter atmosphere with some lovely guesthouses and B&Bs that can be more affordable than staying in a major city. While transport links to Brough might require a bus or train connection, Beverley itself is very walkable and boasts a magnificent Minster that can be explored for free.
When is the most affordable time to visit Brough?
The most affordable time to visit Brough is generally during the shoulder seasons of spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October), or even the quieter winter months (November-March), outside of school holidays and major festivals. During these periods, you'll often find lower prices on accommodation and travel, as the tourist crowds thin out.

For solo travellers, visiting in late autumn or early spring can be particularly beneficial. Public transport, while not extensive directly within Brough, connects well to larger hubs like Inverness or Aberdeen, and off-peak train or bus fares can be significantly cheaper. You'll also find better deals on local guesthouses and bed and breakfasts, which might offer more personalised service at a reduced rate. Many of the natural attractions, such as coastal walks and historic sites, are free to explore year-round, offering an authentic experience without the summer rush.

Couples looking for a peaceful getaway will appreciate the tranquillity of Brough during these off-peak times. Accommodation options, from cosy cottages to small hotels, often have reduced rates, allowing you to enjoy a more comfortable stay for less. The local pubs and eateries, while perhaps having slightly reduced hours, still offer a warm welcome and often feature seasonal dishes using local produce, which can be more affordable than dining in peak season.

Afterwards, take a leisurely stroll along the River Eden, enjoying the picturesque scenery and perhaps even spotting some local wildlife. The Brough Hill area also offers lovely walking paths, great for a peaceful afternoon ramble.

For those interested in local history, the village itself is a delight to explore on foot. You can admire the architecture of the old buildings and visit St. Michael's Church, often open to the public during daylight hours, offering a moment of quiet reflection and a chance to appreciate its historical significance.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Brough as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Brough for you.
