    Hi
    My numbers after the / start with a 6 try jiggling around with the numbers?!
    Just booked Breydon Water for Oct 26 Mon to Fri but really wanted to take kids to France but couldn't get anywhere in Brittany or Paris around school hol time - has anybody else had any luck? Hope its not one of those booking for 5 people things like I found last time after trying to get Butlins for 5 people for years and never understanding why!

    I'm having the same problem.. Invalid reference or PIN. I've checked all our previous forms and it seems your booking reference always has the same last 3 digits, mine has anyway. It seems strange that some people can get the site to work and others cant. Also seems strange that people are unable to find any holidays when the site has only been supposedly open for a couple of hours.

    I really don't think the site is fully functional... wonder if the holidays that people have booked will be honoured!

    I did find it strange to be honest how i could not get my top 3 sites as these are not popular sites and even when i changed the dates i could not get any dates at all for these sites it just offered me other areas. i thought maybe the site was full but i doubt that very much something odd must be happening.
    i must admit though my words and code went through no problem.

    I've always booked as soon as site has opened and never had any problems, payment has been taken and confirmation received. The most popular holidays go quick and some parks won't have all dates available.

    I managed to get Tencreek in Looe for 12th April but went through nearly every park and only 2/3 available for that time period - confirmed as 3 nights though and am hoping this is a mistake and it's really for 4!?!?

    Thanks for the code Spaceman

    I've always booked as soon as the site has become available also and same here no problems in the past. However this time no luck and I'm sure in the past the site has only opened the night before it does officially. I thought the official opening was Saturday 11th July which means the site is open 2 days early.

    Aaaaaaarrggggghhhhh!!!

    Why are all the holidays for 2010 showing only three nights (even for the midweek breaks which are clearly listed as four night breaks in the leaflet?). The only thing I can get for the holidays next year (12th) is Bude and that's 300 miles from here:eek: I just can't do a seven hour drive for a three night break - the extra night might just swing it. Have the sun made a mistake on the booking site or are the holidays really three nights?

    There is a mistake on the site, I got that too

    you need to remember that not all sites are available on all dates! and that some may not have any availability when you come to book

    there are prob hundreds of people all booking ,not just those on MSE etc lol
