    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.

    You dont have to pay for Linen or Entertainment passes just ring up and they will take it off.

    Hi
    I must have my say .
    Sun is the best for me .
    We have always have booked with tith sun for the last 5 years booked with them on the half therms, you could never get it cheaper than this.
    Next week we are going to Devon for 4 nights £57for 2 adults+ 3kids.
    In October we are going to Paris for £198 for 7 nights in the caravan + ferry crossing for 5 people. I don`t think you could get this any cheaper. Any idea on cheap ticket to Disneyland there?
    We never upgrade, we take our own sleeping bags, so we know what bugs will bite us.
    First time we went with the Sun we weere in Devon fabules caravan right on the seefront the best wue. When we asked our neigboures in the morning - they have payed £350 for the same week for 2 adults. Whilest we have paied £50 for 5 people - they were disguasted all that spare money for us. And we didn`t have to take the kids out of school too ( not that they would miss anything anyway- as the schools aRE RUBBISH THESE DAYS). I think even the famylies on income support can efford this to keep a happy family life- no need to spend a fortune.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    the accomodation, the shed where you sleep?


    Yes the caravan or chalet is included and no meals but use of the facilities eg swim, dance, boozer etc

    You can just use the 'shed' to sleep ang go out the rest of the time if u like.

    Enjoy! I've been to loads of these hols as kids just live in the swim pool and the sites are good but can be a bit noisy when the pub/clubs shuts but if you're at your own pub/club who cares?

    I checked that link but couldn't find a link to the special offer on news of the world. Perhaps it's no longer available?

    Thus, I decided to post it as a new thread as it's a separate offer. I was sent the letter because I booked with them last Oct but failed to do so this time around.

    We enjoyed our break then, and would have booked another one in April again, only the dates were not suitable for us as my husband is a teacher and therefore, can't take any school days off!

    Thanks for the info! It is good that these do not have entertainment or service charges too!!!

    As for the NOTW offer, check the link in the second post in the thread as these offers are still available and good cos you can book them online with no vouchers! :D

    Hi,

    Do you know what sort of accomodation you get - is it a caravan or chalet? We have a 4 year old and a 2 year old, but for all our sakes it would be easier if they had seperate rooms. If we booked for 4, would we be allocated 2 or 3 room accomodation.

    If it's 3 rooms, we'll make the most of the fact that our children are not at school yet, and book a couple of breaks, one early summer, one late summer.
