A Leeds couple are set to return to the same hotel where they spent their wedding night 40 years ago – for the same price.
Nell and David Adcock spent the first few days of their married life on the shores of Windermere Lake at the Low Wood Hotel and have decided to return there to relive the magical experience they had at the Lake District hotel.
Mrs Adcock claims that they "loved it so much the first time" that they just had to return to celebrate their ruby wedding anniversary.
But while some of the surroundings in the area might have changed over the years, the price hasn't as the hotel's current management have stepped into help the couple have a second visit as good as the first.
Low Wood normally charges £160 for bed and breakfast accommodation but Mr and Mrs Adcock will pay just £20 1s 6d – the same price they paid back in 1966.
Simon Berry, managing director of English Lakes Hotels who now own Low Wood, said: "We're delighted that they wanted to celebrate their special day back at the Low Wood.
"So we thought it would be nice to give them a gift of our own. I hope they enjoy their stay here as much as they obviously did forty years ago."
