    Perhaps you should post in the correct forum and then you might have some replies.
    Thank you all who post.
  • Hi,
    Have you looked at https://www.SingleWithKids.co.uk? There are a number of overseas holidays for single parents and as you'd be with a number of other single parent families, you're guaranteed company on the break. It makes things much easier, especially if it's your first time overseas with your little one.

  • I second the swk suggestion, we are shortly going on our 10th holiday with them and are off to Majorca in August, my 10 year old loves making new friends.

    Yes you will worry to start with but within an hour of being there you'll realise everyone is in the same boat as you.

    Enjoy and just ask if you want to know anything else.

    Good ideas folks.
  • I'm too late for Feb half term, I'm afraid, but take a look also at the Single Parent Travel Club. I joined about 6 years ago and have had some fantastic holidays abroad as well as in the UK during that time. It's a non-profit making club where single parents organise days out, short breaks and holidays in the UK and abroad. The website is sptc.org.uk (just put www. in front of this) and you can take a look at some of our forthcoming events on our Facebook - just search for Single Parent Travel Club

  • Hi Guys
    Mango (mangoholidays.co.uk) have holidays just for groups of single parents and children and always have a single parent coordinating the trip. There are holidays overseas, Mallorca, Cyprus, Malta etc. as well as in the UK like Devon. There are activity holidays too and ski trips in Feb Half Term.
