    Hi, I'm a bit dismayed by all the extra charges - for a weekend away that I thought was £40 plus a few small charges extra, they are now asking for an extra £85.95. Plus £13.30 on top of that to use the swimming pool :eek:

    Ok, £30 of that is a returnable key deposit, but I have to pay £16.00 for linen, or bring my own, £17.25 for service charge, £14.00 for entertainment passes etc...

    I know it says in that the holidays were *from* £10, but I think the advertising was very misleading, with £10 Holidays emblazoned all over it...

    ... or am I just a numpty for not reading the small print? :o

    Same in the Lincolnshire Echo. Presume the codes will be the same nationally.


    As each group of media companies are different the same codes only apply to a certain media group. You cannot mix tokens with different media groups. IE You can only mix West Briton with the Cornish Guardian and The Cornishman but not the Western Morning News. This is because the park centres are local to those areas too. The WB, CG and Cornishman are Cornwall & Devon Media whilst Western MN is South West Media Group.

    All of this information is under the terms and conditions on the newspaper website. It is also on the website of breakfree holidays.
