    Going 1/7/06 ish kids in school finishing end of june and flying from glasgow airport, budget wise we are looking for a bit of comfort not just a tiny room that fits 3 and 4 at a push and we would like to go either all inclusive and at least half board example last night - Benidorm a.i £2500 for the 5 of us but the location was far out from the center and up a hill which is ok for us but there are in laws coming and hills dont go too well, so we looked at closer to resort coming in at similar prices but dropping to 2* and 3* so for that price and half board but the rooms were still very small and were thinking maybe there is somewhere else. Ideally i would like someone to come on here saying they have been somewhere and kids the entertainment was great for kids and we could look hotels.
    The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
