We'd shortlisted a handful of hotels at the beginning of this week and spent the next few days working out what to do in the area to determine which hotel would be best.

Searching for GB self catering for tall people
Hi, there are lots of websites where you can search for self-catering accommodation in Britain, but does anyone know of a website where you can limit the search to just those with a super king size bed and a big shower? Me and my wife are more than twelve foot between us so these are pretty much showstoppers for us, and so…

Jersey advice
Hi. I'm thinking of going to Jersey for a fortnight by car/ferry in the autumn. Any advice on where to stay etc. With a car we can stay inland, but are we then penalised if we want to come to the port towns re parking and accessibility? I can't find any recent advice on MSE.

to hotel bookings, and which is not clear on their website. I booked two rooms for several days for a

cheaper for the…

Accommodation on Booking.com versus Vrbo.com - big price difference for some reason
I went to book a caravan for Sept 2022 and found the same caravan, for the same dates, on both Booking.com and vrbo.com. The difference was that the Booking.com price was a massive £204 less - £568 on Vrbo.com £364 on Booking.com. The difference was so great I was concerned that the Booking.com listing could be a scam, but…

Haven - Know your refund & consumer rights before you go
Wasn't sure whether to put this in consumer rights forum but thought people more likely to look here before going on holiday. I'll try to be clear and succinct about our experience first. Re-grading of caravans and your possible downgrade. A lot of people booked before the grades of caravan were changed. We paid for a Dog…

We'd usually go to St Ives in Cornwall, firm, firm favourite for many years. However, with a six week old baby when we're due to go it's just a bit too…
