Holiday ideas

Hi there

I'm looking for any information about a holiday (obviously!!!!!!!!). I want to go to Cyprus in October and want to pay a maximum of £600. I want to go somewhere nice and fairly quiet (going with my mother!). Any ideas as to where I can go for that much, if it's possible, would be very welcome.

Thank you

  • Have a look at this http://www.mercury-direct.co.uk/mercury/ lots of flights from regional airports, which is always useful. I believe that Paphos is nice.

    https://www.medhotels.com have a 10% sale if you enter "med summer 10" in the promotional code box on their site; they have some very reasonable hotels in Cyprus.

    Then just find a cheap flight and you are sorted.

    Do you mean £600 in total, or £600 each, and do you want one week or two, and do you want HB/BB/SC?

    Thanks for the Med Hotels promotion code.

    Sorry, I meant £600 in total, going for one week. We want either SC or BB. They all look cheap until you cost it and the fuel supplements etc kick in. :mad:

    Try getting the flight separately and you won't get done for flight and fuel supplements.
