 Cheers Sloppychops. Could increase to £375 if that would help? Do you know how long the transfer from the airport is? I'll check out the options you've listed.0

 Im sure the transfer is only about 30-40 mins."Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."0

            Hi Travelman/et al.
 As some of you will know, I'm a DIY-er, but I remain intrigued to see what the true professionals can manage - so here goes... one thing.. no cruises! [:)]
 1-All airports you can fly from
 East Mids/Birmingham/Coventry/Luton/Stansted/Manchester/Heathrow )pref. not Gatwick unless it's a blindingly good deal)
 2-Duration
 14 days
 3-1st & last dates to leave the UK
 Can go as early as Weds 12th July or as late as Sun 16th July.
 4-Are night flights acceptable ? (Big point as night flights usually cheaper!)
 Acceptable, but not preferred - again, will consider if a really good deal comes up.
 5-Party size & kids ages
 2 adults, 2 children aged 12 and 8
 6-Board basis you require (ie self-catering, all-inclusive, h/b, bb...etc)
 Anything. The nearer the top end of the budget you go, the more I'll need food included though! Prefer a self-catered villa, but would consider anything, including all-inclusive if available, but I doubt it in our budget.
 7-Type of resort, ie quiet, lively
 Quiet with a few lively bits nearby - ie a water park or something
 8-Any resorts/countries you WOULD NOT go to
 Don't think so. Not sure if places like Benidorm and Magaluf are the nightmares they used to be! Don't want to be in a "kiss me quick/fish & chips style 'Brit' resort" though!
 9-Any other neccesary factors, ie must have kids club, pool, be within 'x' metres from sea...etc
 Can't think of many. Must be clean and don't want to be based over a hotel disco. Would be nice to be witrhin wlaking distance of beach/facilities if poss. Would like to be close-ish to public transport or have access to cheap car hire if not!
 10-Prices required by what day/time?
 Whenever - ready to book when right deal arrives.
 11-Max. budget FOR THE WHOLE PARTY!!! Now I know there is a preconceived idea that if you say maximum £1000 we'll quote £999-99-NOT the case! It just saves us all time, for example if you were looking at peak Season or Whitsun for £125 pp it's a non-starter. Just 'as cheap as posssible' is not a help I'm afraid.
 £1500 - £2000 is all I have.
 Cheers,
