Officially rated as 3 stars, we rate the hotel as 4 star for the high standards of accommodation & services provided and due to the complete refurbishment which has taken place during the winter 2005/6 season, including the renovation of all of the bedrooms.

8th sept for 7 nights at roseland hotel
no meal on flight
own insurance
for 2 adult and one 2 yrs old child( free child)
coach transfer( free)
flight from manchester
could anyone find below £828.50 with r points please?0 -
There isnt many agents about that can discount Thomsons holidays compared to the internet, They cut the agents comission this year so its really nto worth them booking it. on that price average comission would be about £20.
I get it to £810.00 unclick the sit together too ..its a con you can still be behind each other DONT PAY IT
then use cj-pineapple(£20) or hu-sunset(£25) (if they are still valid) or any other thats comes to lightIf you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel0 -
Thanks a lot guys,I will have a look at all your suggestions and make the decision this sunday.

Hi there,
looking through all the thread, have followed some of the links but I'm also looking at guidance from some of you parents out there as well!
My wife and I are about to part company, I'm really unsure of the future so I want to ensure that at least I can make the summer fun for the boys.
What can the forum suggest?
Budget is the only limitation, and that's around the £800 mark for the 3 of us.
Don't care what she organises (not quite acrimonious yet, but getting there...) but both the boys love the water, are outgoing, social animals! If a club is available, then great, it'll give me a couple of hours to myself.
Oh, and if whale watching is available, that'll do!!!!!
Details:
1-All Midlands, Stansted or Luton
2-14 Nights
3-21-22 July 06 (because they finish school, so flights after 8pm on 21/7)
4-Yes
5-1 Adult, 2 Kids (my age - about 3 in my wife's eyes!!!) (10 and 8)
6-self-catering, all-inclusive or bb - NOT h/b
7-Not fussed really, but not looking at Ibiza clubland either.
8-Nope - eyes open though...
9-Yep, kids compulsory
10-When you can, but I'd like to get it booked and know it's done.
club, pool, be within 'x' metres from sea...yes please...etc
11-Max. budget about £800.
Beach required! Pool might be useful, but not essential.
Local facilities, a bit of nightlife but has to be child-friendly.
Anywhere!
If you can come up with something amazing then I can move on budget, but this money is for my new home so don't go mad!
Thanks in advance,
hapless4kWp, SSE, SolarEdge P300 optimisers & SE3500 Inverter, in occasionally sunny Corby, Northants.
Now with added Sunsynk 5kw hybrid ecco inverter & 15kWh Fogstar batteries. Oh Octopus Energy too.0 -
