Billy's Bothy Ashbourne - WARNING
We are a group of retired friends who recently spent a short walking holiday in Ashbourne Derbyshire. We stayed at Billy's Bothy DE6 1JQ from Monday 12th to Friday 16th September. We had a thoroughly great time which was then soured on our return home by the owners' refusal to return our deposit of £250 because she said we…

Birmingham Constitution Hill Area to Edgbaston
Hi All I need to attend an event in the Constitution Hill area of Birmingham. I have researched hotels in the city centre and cannot afford any of those. Only things coming up in budget (£45-55 per night) are in the Edgbaston Area. (Hagley Road?) Is this far out from Constitution Hill? Can I catch a bus quite easily to &…

Shearings & Savoy Bournemouth.
Just returned from a rotten time at the above hotel. Everyone please note: this hotel is awful! A list of all the faults and problems would be far too long, here is a taste: * the "Garden Room" (basement) - first use of hot water, had to run the tap for 45+ minutes before the brown, rusty water stopped and clear water ran.…

Legoland Resort
Are there ever any deals for Legoland which involve the hotel accommodation as well? We're going to splurge and spend one night in the hotel (Legoland is my kids' Disney!) but at the moment it's coming up at about £370 for one night plus 2 days in the park. (One day really, the second day is free!) I know that you often…

RyanAir
My daughter and her friend booked a weekend away using RyanAir. They were due to leave on the Friday night and fly back on the Sunday. They booked the flights and then realised they could not go on the planned dates. They then rebooked the flights for the following week, paying the cancellation fee etc. When they got to…

Do distance selling regs apply to hotel or apartment bookings - **updated**
I have just booked, via booking.com, an apartment for the weekend of my husband's birthday in late September. 2 bedroomed apartment, so we have asked his mother to come along too, and she is really keen. Before booking, I looked on tripadvisor and the place had absolutely glowing reviews. The photographs on booking.com's…

Hotel says I made a booking - no confirmation
It seems things do come along in threes - after issues with travel insurance and my car, I'm now having a problem with a well-known hotel group. I made a reservation about 6 months ago for a single night stay (flexible rate). I then found a hotel closer to where I was going for a cheaper rate, so I cancelled. A couple of…

London Hotel
Hi everyone, Next September I have booked to go and see Harry Potter in London as a bit of a birthday present to myself. I'm meeting up with friends there to go and see the show, but fancied making a weekend of it, and splashing out on somewhere to stay that is a bit nicer than a Travelodge! So, I'm after suggestions of…

Eden Project parking charges a bit stiff!
Recently discovered that it's £4 per person dearer if you arrive in a car. They claim parking is free but if you are disabled and unable to walk or cycle there you will have to pay the £4. They claim the incentive is to encourage people to walk, cycle or get a bus. Very admirable but I think they should be honest and just…

On line travel agents
In a story covered in the last series of Rip Off Britain holidays, it was disclosed that booking direct will nearly always get a better price than the likes of Booking.c and others a point which I certainly agree with. What the story did not disclose relates to review scores. With the named site reviews are only from…
