The Couple Who Stopped At A UK Travelodge - And Stayed There For 22 Years | timesonline.co.uk
To the weary traveller, roadside hotels are usually little more than a welcome pitstop for one night at the very most. However, for David and Jean Davidson, the Travelodge chain is the place they have called home for 22 years. The couple, who never have to cook, clean, do the washing up or make a bed, spent their first night in a roadside Travelodge in 1985 when they drove to visit an elderly aunt in Staffordshire who was in poor health. They enjoyed their stay so much that when the aunt died four months later they moved out of their flat in Sheffield and took up residence at the Travelodge in Newark, Nottinghamshire.
