1 week holiday in hotel - what to take food wise?

[hollybatgirl]

Hi All,
I am taking my 12 year old daughter away for a week to Glastonbury in the summer and we are staying in a hotel (Travelodge). We camped nearby last year so I'm aware how expensive it is to eat out there and I am on a strict budget so I was wanting to take some food with us to have in the Hotel to save a bit cash for days out. I've started a list already with snacks and pot noodle type things but was wondering if anyone has any better suggestions. I know the hotel wont have a fridge or any cooking facilities so kettle only unfortunately.

Have you already booked the hotel? You could try getting an air bnb which would let you use the fridge or even kitchen. Often cheaper than hotels.

Cancel the Travelodge and get an AirBnB instead. Cook all your own food, feels much more relaxed.

I can't cancel the hotel as it's paid for with no refunds unfortunately. I'm planning on spending very little time in the hotel anyway and I know there is a supermarket and bakery close by. I looked at the airbnb but there just far too expensive for the week and the hotel is right in the centre too.
