Hotton Cemetery - visit

dickiemint · 27-03-2008, 09:57 PM

Hi, excuse me if I am on the wrong forum - newbie.
I am hoping to visit Hotton at the end of May with my parents. My uncle, father's brother, was shot down on 29 May 1943 on the way to Wuppertal and the Pilot and members of crew are buried in Hotton.

Can anyone recommend a comfortable hotel near there for a couple of nights stop.
Thanks vm

Hello dickiemint.
Welcome to the forum.
I moved your post to here.
I was in that cemetery last month.
Pity I didn't know of your uncle then I could have taken a photo.
I take it you've seen my thread?
Sorry can't recomend a hotel as we stayed in a cottage at Trois Ponts.
Hotton and La Roche , down the road, a bit are lovely little towns.
Have a good trip.

Thanks for the quick reply Owen. The visit is not confirmed yet as I have one or two things to sort out.
If it is a goer I will post details and will be happy to take any photographs that may be wanted.
Cheers
