Travel partner plans to expand TT accommodation

One of the TT travel partners is planning to create pop-up hotel rooms and extra glamping facilities for next year's event.

Duke Travel Ltd. is looking to provide at least 150 of the hotel spaces on the old prison site between the TT paddock and Victoria Road.

It's also expanding it's glamping accommodation - with 200 2-bed to 4-bed tents on the football grounds next to Governors Bridge.

The company's chief executive, Peter Duke, says it will combine a prime location near the course with a quiet place to stay during the evenings.
