We went to Haggerston Castle in Northumberland a few years ago and we really enjoyed it,I am presuming that this park is on offer.
As a general rule I try to pick parks with caravan accomodation ,as we went in a chalet once and it was horrible, in a Pontins complex,the decor was still 1950's and the place stunk foisty and horrible.

I have to say cardtart that I agree we went a few years back to a Pontins site in rhyl and we left a night earlier as it was horrible and the site was no where near Haven standards. Now I always choose Haven or we might try butlins this time as we now have the 3 children instead of the one. Has anyone been to butlins skegness is it really as good as it looks in the brochure?

If its a Haven site you are intrested in you can ring Haven direct and not bother with the tokens

Haven charge £10 for linen + £10 refundable deposit

You can also upgrade to a Luxury (£1.50 pppn) , Luxury Plus ( £3 pppn) or Super Luxury caravan (£5pppn) min charge of 4 persons per night.

They good thing with Haven is you can add 2 of the Sun holidays to make a full 7 night holiday, you do this when you get your conformation through.

I can recomend the following Haven sites.......

Devon Cliffs, Hopton, Wild Duck, Primrose Valley

Is there a link so that we can 'have a look' - where are you getting all this info from??!!

deanos

Not been on one of these for a while now but for a few years when money was very tight we used to go twice a year on them.

I would recommend a park at Wemyss Bay in Scotland, it has lovely views and is not far from Glasgow, Loch Lomond or you can take a ferry across to one of the isles (can't remember which one).

Also once went to a really nice small park at Bethesda in North Wales. You can usually get the names of all the parks on the Sun website, then you can check them out online. I used to get the Hoseseasons brochure as a lot of them were featured in there.

Generally I would always choose one that isn't Butlins or Pontins, and like the other posters, would always choose a caravan over a chalet.

There are extras but it still works out very good value.

Hi everyone, I've long been a lurker on these forums but I decided to register to post because I need some help!

Could someone post the Sun's daily code words that allow 'readers' to book online? Purleaze?

Hi Deano

I have a priority booking form, where it says to book online I'll need my Sun reference number (got it) and six different code words - one printed each day at the bottom of the tokens in the newspaper, starting today.
