    https://www.paradores-spain.com/ Paradors are all over Spain and can be cheap but also very expensive depending on which one you use they are often Spanish listed buildings.
    It would be nice if you went for the C/D holiday to maybe take 3-4 days out and stay in one up in the mountains
    http://parapromotions-spain.com/parador/spain/pvicsau.html this one close to Gerona is 144 euros a night BB but stunning

    The mobile home parks now are very good and can be anything from very lively to quiet country parks and they are nothing like the old carvan holidays we had as a kid most come with thier own patio and sunloungers BBQ. so when little ones in bed a nice bottel of Italian wine, a couple of steaks on teh BBQ and arhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Travelman please can you help?

    i've just been accepted for a 6 week course in cairo. the start date is 2nd June until the 13th july.

    i only need a flight as accomodation is included in the course fees. ideally i want to travel on the 31st may or 1st june and would like to return on the 15th or 16th july.

    i can only travel from manchster airport. i have had a look around and can't find anything cheaper than £300. i dont mind if the flight is not direct.
