    I've never been on a Sun holiday but I do believe the Woolacombe Bay (& the others like the Golden Coast) are an option in Devon......my advice is

    STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!!!!!! I've stayed in a caravan in the Golden Coast & it was like something off the set of a Holiday On the Buses film & I was expecting Reg Varney to appear. Just awful, dirty, dated. Just google the place & you'll see the reviews for yourself.

    Anybody know when they start printing them in the paper?

    Tokens start 9th Jan & booking online from 16th Jan.
    I think last time round they opened up the booking online earlier than advertised as all my choices were not available when I went online :mad: so will check earlier than 16th this time.

    yes they do tend to open up the website early, normally anytime from lunchtime the day before it is due to open, then everybody has a free for all trying to guess the last code, and get in and book before everybody else so they get what they want, i managed this last time and mangaged to get butlins bognor for halloween:D
    Take every day as it comes!!

    I think I might try out the North of Scotland ;) it's a four hour drive though :eek: My friend has been to the park, it's a parkdean one, and she said it was really great and the kids had a great time. I think I might be going on my own with the girls, we will see :cool:

    Which parks are you looking at ?

    Christmas was fab, the girls had a ball, how did you get on ? Did you all have a nice time ?

  • Hey,

    Just wondering if anyone can help me my mum received a booking form which I am going to but just wondered how it works, can someone answer some questions please!

    1, Do you still have to get tokens out the paper with a PB Form?
    2, Do we have a higher chance of getting a holiday?
    3, Do we pay on-line instead of sending postal order?

    Sorry if i sound like I'm being a pain its just last time we went we went with my mum and she sorted out everything! lol

    1. No,you just need the words from the tokens ( which people kindly post on here) not the actual paper tokens

    2. yes,and none of the frustrating waiting! you find out there and then

    3.Yes you pay online at the time of booking,by card

    HTH
