Camping
There is a widespread network in country locations of campsites which welcome tents, caravans, or motorhomes. sites may welcome some or all of these. but don't expect to find many close to cities and major tourist attractions.
England offers the usual Western assortment of sleeping options including
Hostels Both private institutions and those part of a hosteling networking which may require membership so check ahead usually offer dorm style accommodations, sometimes with a simple breakfast included think toast and tea. Many hostels in popular destination cities fill up during the busy summer season, so try to book ahead or at least call before you arrive.
Bed and Breakfasts
Can range from a single room in a private home to large historical buildings with dozens of rooms. in many towns the tourist office has a list of rooms available and can help you call around.
Motels
Mostly in the form of large chains such as travel inn and travelodge, with hundreds across the country.
Universities
It has been possible to get accommodation in some universities and colleges out of term time for a while. however (http://www.universityroom...) is a bit better than most previous sites, in that it provides good information and tips about the places it covers, which include oxford and cambridge. however it does not cover all the places where accommodation is available.
While the rooms are generally comfortable, rooms at the lower end of the price scale may be small and usually come without air conditioning, cable TV, coffee machines, and other amenities. In very inexpensive accommodation, for example in dormitory style hostels, towels and soap may not be provided.Most hotels that provide breakfast will offer a choice between a full english see above or continental. The continental normally consists of bread rolls, croissant, cereal, pain au chocolat and cold meats such as ham and salami. Beverages such as fresh fruit juice, tea, coffee and hot chocolate are served too.
