Hey,

I hope someone can help, I am struggling to get my head round all these codes etc (to be honest I am easily confused!)

My friend has given me a priority code to use and I have seen the 8 codes required on here to make the booking.

I have some questions:

Is it possible to take a dog to any of the sites?
Can anyone make a recommendation for any of the sites in Cornwall or devon which will allow dogs if I pay extra?

Hope someone can help, I just don't want to book and find out I cannot take the dog with us

Thanks
Mike

Hi
When you get your confirmation through ring the site to arrange to take your dog - we have never had problems before. You can often find the parks own website if you google them to check if they accept dogs first.
Haven sites tend to charge for a dog - about £35 I think for a short break.

Haven let you take dogs, but i think only in the standard vans. We get upgrades when we go with haven as my youngest has a pet hair allergy and the cleaners aren't always thorough as we found out one year when we followed a family in who'd been smokers and had dogs in. Delightful wasn't the word!

I think the knack when searching for the hols is to put in the most popular dates and sites (which won't be available) then put in the date and site that you think may be free, that was how I had dto do it.

ie. 31st Aug Primrose Valley. Thats a top site and wont be available for a Sun Hol on a Bank Hol

i did it this way as well to check availability at blackpool and when it kept coming up with nothing to match my criteria, it was a pretty safe bet we weren't going to get in. I'm happy with what we've got, and can't wait now!

Anyone know if its possible to apply for only one park (choosing any date) and that one only? No second, third choices, and if you are unsuccessful you're not committed to pay for the alternative choice.

We want to try the sites in South Wales but holiday watchdog reviews are not too good. Has anyone tried any of them? We just want clean accomodation to use as a base to visit Skomer Island - we don't need entertainment passes/swimming pools etc. It is just the two of us - no children. Alternatively, can anyone recommend any site near the 'Waterfall walk' in the Dales. TIA

I stayed at Manorbier Country Park, just outside Tenby last week. The static caravan we were in was huge and very clean. had two double bedrooms, ours had an en suite. Manorbier train station is a 2 minute walk from the campsite.. probably the nicest/cleanest caravan we've stayed in so far

Hope so. I am sending the tokens in as no priority code but only want my favourite site in Norfolk. Have put down 6 dates though, so, fingers crossed !!!

Hi
Don't know if this has been replied to yet but I found out last time after trying unsuccessfully to book Butlins many times that they only keep 4 berth accommodation for these promotions so you can't book for 5 or 6!

Thnaks Beth, I'd heard that last time too. I've tried loads of time to book butlins, but we're a family of six, and have never been sucessful. Was just trying to confirm if it was true.

Have booked this site for 9 October. Thanks

Typical bad luck for me!!! The priority code I had been given appears to be invalid as it has been used (apparantly) previously and can only be used the once.

Is there anyway of getting one? if anyone has a spare one I would be very grateful!

Thanks
