I've just booked a week for my family for August 2010 for 7 nights, saving over £650, 50% of the booking price.

My 3 boys will be delighted when the know. My 8 year old asks me if he can go to Butlins everytime he see the advert.

:money:

Thanks for the tip off.

Also make sure you have the right website to get the 50% off

www.butlins.com/halfprice

I'm really tempted, but the link on there is for people who've been before and I haven't been in twelve years! I did read somewhere that if you're not eligible they can ask you to leave- not sure how true that is though- does anyone know?

Its a con, honestly!

I usually book 'Rock n Roll' week with the kids at Skeggy......early booking plus £30 off in January cost me £135 for 2 adults and 2 kids in Silver self catering. We got a 3 bedroomed apartment this year as well.

With this offer at the minute its £212 for a 3 bedroom silver self catering apartment :eek:.:eek::eek: I'd rather wait a few more months and get it cheaper :rotfl::rotfl:


Not worth it!!!!!!!

If you checked stega's comparisons you would see that they are talking nonsense.

zakiya12, is the price guarantee on the website, and does it include future discounted rates? If so, it would be worth booking and periodically checking the prices.

i got this in a letter and i quote "we'll guarantee that if you book now for 2010, you won't find a better deal nearer the time (if you should find it cheaper'simply let us know and we'll refund the diffrence)" there is also no small print or t&c for this.

The half price link is the same price as the normal site!

So not saving for me

Thanks all the same

I got the mailing today, but my quote is the same as one i got about a month ago. Still, we'll be going back next year away as the kids just love it there.

I am not replying to you again, because you clearly do not understand what I am saying.

You booked for this October and you were offered 50% off the full price. The price quoted for next October IS NOT 50% OFF. To compare like for like, you need to compare the full price, without any discounts. You are not doing this.

Is it really that difficult to understand?

This offer has been on the website for awhile, I booked a few weeks ago for the last week of March which is the start of the Easter hols at my school. I am paying £331 for deluxe half board.

I am also going in a few weeks during Oct half term which I booked through the sun off and it cost £130 including upgrade to silver self catering.

Haven is ok in good weather if you get a nice van, but the facilities for children are better at Butlins particularly in poor weather. You can also get some great last minute deals with Butlins.
