Sun £9.50 holidays back again (merged)

kal25 · 12 July 2006 at 11:52AM

Hi I just thought I'd post that I had a leaflet from The Sun telling me the £9.50 holidays were going to be back this week.Starting on Sat 15th there will be tokens to collect and post or you can enter the different code words to book on line. The £9.50 holidays are for Sept, Oct and Nov, or book for March/April 2007. There is also a chance to book a £15 holiday, dates-Aug 28 & Sept 4 (4nights) Sept 1(3 nights) this would save quite a bit for families with children as the cheapest caravan holiday I can find in school holidays is about £200. Hope this helps anyone.Thanks

okay now these might be dumb question but never looked at these holidays before so would be grateful if someone could help me?

what type of accomodation do you get ? and is it possible to upgrade ? is bed linen included ? or are there loads of hidden "extra's" that you have to pay for therefore not making it that cheap a holiday ?

Thanks in advance

It is right mummyyummy, as I said I had a leaflet sent by The sun stating that they will be starting on Sat 15th July when first token is printed.

what type of accomodation do you get ? and is it possible to upgrade ? is bed linen included ? or are there loads of hidden "extra's" that you have to pay for therefore not making it that cheap a holiday.

To answer this question financial filly in one of the days papers there will be a supplement that will show you all of the parks you can choose from. On this supplement it will state by the park what accomodation is avaliable ie chalet/caravan/apartment. I'm not sure if possible to upgrade, I think this would be down to the park you go to and you would need to speak to them I think. Linen is not included and can either take your own or pay a small charge. On some parks you will need to pay service charge (varies from park to park,some are free. The only other extra is club passes and they are optional. Even with everything I still think it would only cost you about £100 approx for 4 nights, not bad considering most caravan parks charge at least £200 in Aug, Sept and Oct. Parks that are included are Haven so if you need to see the parks you can visit https://www.havenholidays.com Hope this helps guys.

You have to pay for 4 people regardless if there is only 2-3 of you.

There is extras, and you can upgrade if you wish.

We went to Butlins, 3 of us, i think cost around £70 alltogether for 3 nights

Can anyone recommend a park on this offer in Scotland or the north of England. I have two weeks September and this would be ideal.

We went to Haggerston Castle in Northumberland a few years ago and we really enjoyed it,I am presuming that this park is on offer.
As a general rule I try to pick parks with caravan accomodation ,as we went in a chalet once and it was horrible, in a Pontins complex,the decor was still 1950's and the place stunk foisty and horrible.
