Sun Readers Holidays for 2010

Hi Everyone
had a check around the threads but couldnt see anything (or that maybe because i have a very active six month baby bobbing about beside me lol and my brain is a bit slow).

I was wondering if anyone knows when the sun readers holiday things comes out? I dont read the sun but am willing to buy it for a week if i can get a bit knocked of a holiday!

We would like to go to duinreil in holland next year but dont want to book yet if the sun offers come out say at some time in the new year:)

Thanks in advance for any help:)

    I think the offer to collect tokens starts on 9th January 2010. good luck. We have enjoyed 2 breaks at Butlins costing £100 over the last 2 years!
  • My priority booking letter arrived today :j

    Just trying to cost up now if its worth going to Paris so we can visit DLP or just pay to stay in a hotel and Eurostar.
    Lightbulb moment Dec 2005 - debt £23700

    June 2010 - £17984.21
  • Check Canvas Holidays, Keycamp, Select camp, and Eurocamp first. At the moment, you could book 4 nights in a 2 bed caravan with Canvas holidays for 4 nights midweek in October (when you can have the place to yourselves) for £150.

    Canvas are still including 2 hours free in the pool before 2pm, Keycamp & Eurocamp will not be as of 2010.

    That price is including a dover/calais midweek crossing, and there are no supplements to pay, for up to 2 adults & 4 kids. By the time you add on the Sun extras, it may be more cost effective, and of course you choose your dates.

    I'm interested in the 7 night breaks but cant find any info on there yet, just wondered if anyone knows wether they offer the same dates as the short breaks or if selected dates only as was hoping for June time.

    received my priority booking form today

    We find them a bargain,as we can only go during school holidays
    so always make a good saving,especially the French ones

    we use tesco clubcard deals for the eurotunnel crossing ( don't like the ferry,after a bad crossing one year!)

    BUT ALWAYS have a look online to see what it would cost you to book direct,as often there's not much / any saving by booking with the SUN once you add on all the extras ,if booking term time / out of season

    HTH

    all it says is
    "........ just go online to check out our 7 night holiday park availability ..."

    Hi Rachie B - is that your review on UK campsite of the campsite near Paris that I have just read? We are thinking of trying France and doing Disney parks - was looking at the 2 different sites near Paris. Thinking of taking our caravan but would be easier doing the Sun one and just taking the car!
  • The vouchers start on Saturday 9th January. I shall be checking on here for the codes myself as it isn't a paper I usually read. Hoping to take OH, DS amd DD to a place in Spain that I went to as a child
