    Looking forward to this starting. Does anyone have any recommendations for sites in Scotland / North of England. I want to go early April or mid May.

    When do you have to start collecting if you have never been on a £9.50 holiday before? And any other tips.

    Fancy a cheap local break, as we don't want to go to far away with a tiny baby!
    Here I go again on my own....

    cuddles i think £150 per person is a good deal,then it would depend on how cheap or not food is out there ?

    becles just be aware that many of these mobile homes arent big enough to accomodate a travel cot!
    as my sister found out lol and the single beds were fixed to the floor so unable to move them.
    If your baby will still be in a carrycot / moses then you will be fine :)

    Ive not had my priority booking form yet <sulks> lol

    Can recommend berney riviere to anyone wanting to go to a french site,disneyland re sort paris is just under an hour away from the site

    but we are going to try for the site thats 20 mins away this time :)

    also we are going to travel via Eurotunnel this time instead of ferry (using tesco clubcard deals of course lol) as the fery made us all feel sick :(

    we usually just go to parks in this country but we have already rebooked the park even cheaper by doing it whilst we were there last time with an offer. wasnt going to bother this time as we already have 2 hols booked for this year but got my priority booking form and after reading on here about disney land im tempted. i have some clubcard points i coud use and have looked at an example on the eurotunnel website and the cost is £111 woult this still be the same if i used the deals or do they charge more. how do they work, do i get them exchanged then post them somewhere. i could probably find the info if i looked but at the moment my toddler is trying to climb up the tv :)

    thanks for all the advise on this thread.
    regards

    Portugal is always expensive to get to and in sept/oct there aren;t any deals. I would say this is a really good deal.
