Breakfree holidays

I received an email from breakfree holidays today and their site offeres up to 40% off/£300 off holidays with companies such as Haven, Park Resorts, lodge holidays and some in Europe.

Has anyone used this company before? Are they legit?

Many thanks,

Emma.

    Am just looking at the site now. Could be that they are like a rep for the other companies iykwim. There doesnt seem to be an awful lot left, so they could just be getting rid of whats left fom the other companies. I could be wrong though...and am still browsing now

    I have booked Haven through these before - all went well, just make sure you read the small print about service charges, linen and club passes - I booked and received a further invoice through the post, you can ring them up though and get the passes and linen removed if you dont want them xx Hope this helps xx

    Thanks Stacey, did you stay in a standard or luxury plus? I presume the luxury plus is the superior plus/deluxe equivilant? We are also going on the basis that passes are about £40-50 extra and linen we read as £7 per bedroom.

    we just stayed in standard which was fine, to be honest i'm a bag of nerves in the luxery caravans with the kids in case they spill a drink or aomething! when we went through them there was three caravans of us, two paid for linen and one cancelled. but when we got there the linen was all in the caravan anyway!

    hope you have a good time xx

    We have just booked for Caister Haven for end of August in luxury plus. Now awaiting the invoice for passes, service charge. Still it is alot cheaper than booking direct. :o)))

    Not been to Caister before, only Wild Duck and Coombe Haven.

    We are away early August so this will be a lovely extra holiday.

    There are mainly Monday-Friday and long weekend breaks available but still good prices.

    we have booked a special promotion at haven devon cliffs, they charged us £8.95 for entertainment passes(if you have any children under the age of 5 they dont charge for their passes), £26 power charge, and a £14 power charge(which you can have dropped if you wish, funny thing is i would have expected linen in luxury plus accomodation, you do afterall pay more for this accomodation, but never mind) so the extras came in at £75.80 for us, oh and by the way caistor is lovely, granted not as nice as seashore in great yarmouth itself, but it is still a nice park
    Take every day as it comes!!
