Sounds like a Haven holiday to me:rotfl: Dairyland in Cornwall ..hmm i reckon that is a scam to get all the tourists to pay for the locals to have the cows milked:rotfl: It is not a bad place really, but wouldn't go again.:o Having been once when boblets were at an impressionable age::cool:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
I've been on a Haven holiday once Bob and never again - hated it! I would rather book a wee cottage somewhere quiet away from crowds tbh.
Farm parks do make me laugh with the 50p for a bag of food idea to feed their animals when you've already paid to get in! obviously on the odd occasion we've been we did it though!Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
