    Those of you who have contacted the sun to ask about priority codes - where did you e-mail please? Is it the 'contact us' on the sun page or is there a direct one to the holiday department? Thanks

    I got my form last week but only got the one code word 'PLAN' we have been booking with them for around 10 years now so you must be a very good customer to get 2 starter tokens!! :)

    So, so far we have-

    PLAN
    MEET
    FINE
    KEYS (NOTW bonus code?)

    Can anyone remember do Butlins only take bookings for a maximum of 4 people now please? If so we have a 2month old do you think I could book for 4 then add him on when we go as he wont be using a bed (I know we still have to pay £9.50 for him though) any ideas???

    Thanks.

    We have been taking sun holidays about 2 times per year since 2004 and usually recieve a priority code now, so I do not know what criteria they use to decide. :)
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
    It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound in weight. Target 13 lbs weight loss. 18.5lbs lost 2nd May - 28 September.

    Hi
    I'd also like to know if this was possible please at all?
    I've been lucky enough to get a priority code this time but would like to take my parents along too - would make us a party of 5 incl my 3 year old.
    Could I just book for 4 adults and add him later diresct thru butlins?
    thanks

    Hi all,

    I've never been on one of these hols before and am thinking of trying it out. Got my first two codes but what I want to ask is can anyone give advice on where best to go? It will be my husband and me only - are there any adult only places? or is it all family places?

    Any advice much appreciated.

    Don't forget you can download a bonus code on the website too!! Try to avoid the usual well known sites (butlins/haven etc) and look for the more private sites as they are usually cleaner and quieter!

    You will still have to pay for the minimum 4 places though.;)
