    Is this all legit as never known the sun to do this before so wary before I book. Also, it comes up with the hol I want but I have to upgrade. Is there any way of finding out what the upgrade is from/to?

    If you look at the particular place you want to stay it normally gives the additional costs at the bottom. On the one I've booked it states that the costs are different for £9.50 guests and £15 guests. Given that I can't find any for £9.50 and have booked at £15, I'm assuming this isn't the same as the £9.50 token collecting offer that the Sun were running earlier this year, it must be something different.
  • Wow just booked for Church Farm in April, very excited. Does anyone know if bed linen is included? Thanks in advance.

    I didn't factor in bedlinen, just looked and it says an extra £10 per person per break for Butlins, so that's another £40!! So far our £9.50 holiday is costing £250!!! Wish they wouldn't call them £9.50 holidays!!

  • You can always take your own linen. They provide duvets and pillows so you just need to take duvet covers, sheets and pillow cases.
    I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the Ramada/Days Inn BRG thread.

    We took linen charge off when we went on our break in march and when arrived it was still there so did not need our own which we took with us.

    how do you work out your £250?

    I'm going on a £9.50 holiday is september and have only paid £133

    the linen is per chalet, not per person. probably worth paying if you are travelling by train and don't want to lug duvet covers etc. around.
