Coming from where you are I would have made the trip worth it and get to Alton towers
However that, why not get premier inn or similar. Just somewhere nice and cheap because it being a stag do, you won't spend long in there!

Is this Nathan's stag do then? If you haven't already booked it mate like 4fingerdiablo says I'd go for Alton Towers. Not much further from you than Thorpe and far better, and if you're off out on the piss after Derby is a good place to stay, regular buses to Alton Towers and WAY cheaper than London...

will have a look into that this evening see what I can sort out,

I wouldn't say boring

Just think Alton towers is better

Its barely an hours drive for us so I've no idea why I've not been more but twice this year and only ever once previous. I could see how it would get boring after a few visits
