Sun £9.50 hols & Priority booking

apoole12

Not sure why - but have just received 2 cinfirmation emails. Received the first one at 11:52 and the second at 12:23. I did only book the one holiday (even though I managed to get through to booking again!!!)

We live in Portsmouth but are going to South Wales to Parkdean Trecco Bay - I know nothing about it but we have never been to Wales with the kids so they will enjoy it.
Our Easter hols are 2 weeks from 6th but daughter's birthday on 9th and she wants her party on the day so we were a bit tied - there was more available for the first week.
Hope you enjoy yours!

trecco bay is a good park, i live in south wales. theres plenty to do so im sure you will all have a great time away!

Try putting what you want as first choice, but for your 2nd and 3rd choice put something you know they won't offer you! Put all 3 butlins, and then they will offer which one you have for first choice. For dates, put 17th july and 25th may - those will be the most popular so again you are more likely to be given your first choice.

I don't know why, but they always offer me my third choice if they can, even when my first choices are actually available!

This did not work for me, as when i did this it kept offering me camber sands, oh well never mind i only wanted butlins as i used to work at the minehead one for 9 years, so wanted to see what the others where like in comparrison, might try them again when the sun does the £9.50 holidays again later in the year, at least we got our second choice on may bank holiday midweek:T, Dave

I have just tried every date from April onwards for all 3 Butlins parks and there are no dates available

Very disappointed.

Never had any problems before. Makes you wonder if there was any holidays there in the first place?? :mad:

Has anyone else managed to get Butlins? I wondered if it was because I have Free Entertainment code that it didnt want me to have Butlins???

Not sure what to do now. Poor kids said I'd take them to Butlins, guess we'll be paying £400 for a break there as refuse to pay £1200 summer hols price :eek:

I managed to get Minehead in June for a weekend (my son has an inset day which is lucky). - had tried for Bognor but realised afterwards that almost all weekends outside school holidays were Adult only events. (so I imagine that anyone with kids in the party would not be able to book plus doubt that there would be any spare capacity). I did get offered Bognor for 17th July too did not accept.

thats right bognor is mainly adult weekends! except school hols and they are like golddust unless you choose half board, which is not bad we went HB at xmas, and have a party of 4 only!
