    Anyone know what the chances of changing the names are? Just wondering as need to do that. Do they check everyones ID on arrival?

    Cant see why it would cost to change the names... I know it says "no changes"... but just wondering. Thanks.

    If its with Haven they dont put your names on the passes they are just different colurs depending on what week you are staying anybody can use them,when you arrive just go to reception with the Invoice they sent and thats all you need when you first get there and they will give you your keys and information pack with times of entertainment etc..

    Chuffy,

    Have you more information (a link?) re how/where you can convert Tesco Clubcard vouchers into 4x face value for Hoseasons holidays? (I tried Tescos website but couldn't find any mention on there about Hoseasons who own the Haggerston Castle site)

    you dont have to pay the £10 for bed linen.....i never have....you just ring the park and tell them you'll bring your own and they take the £10 charge off.

    wall park(pontins) in devon has no extra charges.....we always go there for precisely this reason :j
    Me and the kids used to do the Sun holidays a lot. I always declined the linen charge, and there was always linen in the chalets waiting for us :confused:

    I received a letter from The Sun offering breaks in April with no service or entertainment charges whatsoever. You only pay £9.50 per person (min 4 people).

    It only applies to certain parks in Essex, Kent, Sussex, Isle of Wight, Devon, Wales, Linc & East Anglia, North East, Scotland. This only applies to 3 night breaks (Fri-Mon) on 21 April, 5, 12, 19 May and 4 night breaks (mon-fri) on 24 April, 1, 8, 15, 22 May. Also, a special pre-Easter 3 night break on Mon 10- thurs 12 April. In May, there are no entertainment charges, but I think you have to pay service charges of about £3.50 per unit per day.

    You need to call 0871 200 6200 and quote 'Sun Special Letter'. You need to call the special tel booking line to get this offer.

    This is outside the school holidays, but hope this helps someone. You could get a holiday in April for £38 for 4 people, without extra costs.

    I've just got an invoive through from Wall park asking me to pay £10 for bed linen..... what do you do, phone them and say you dont want it?
    The way they word it sounds like they will not let you do that. Dont really want the bed linen, we take sleeping bags.
    2012 wins approx £11,000 including 5k to spend on a holiday :j
