    I got my confirmation this morning. I got my second choice park and my last choice date. Unfortunately it means i have to take the kids out of school for 2 days but beggars can't be choosers.

    Now I just have to find the extra £40 that they want LOL

    Question - As there are only 3 of us do I still have to purchase 4 ent passes and 4 lots of bedding? or will they let me just order 3?

    You will be able to purchase 3 entertainment passes - we did last yr - I think we got charged for 4 originally on the invoice but then called up to pay and asked them to change it. Not sure abt bedding - thought it was a set price - ie not per person

    well my cheque was cashed last week ,and IIRC last year,it was a good week or so before i then had a confirmation letter after cheque was cashed

    If you havent been successful they will return your cheque ,so they will contact you regardless

    HTH
  • Don't forget as well peeps that you don't have to purchase entertainment passes for under 5's.

    I was billed for 6 of us, and rang and told them that 2 of the 6 were under 5, they deducted the cost, wasn't a problem.:T

    Don't forget as well that you don't have to get the passes or bedding.

    We went last year on a Sun Holiday and took our own bedding and didn't bother with the passes as we just used the park as a base and knew we wouldn't use the facilities.

    I am thinking about taking our own bedding but as it is just a weekend, the park facilities will be our holiday. Going out and about will just make it more expensive as we will have to shell out for bus fares.

    Definately wait a while longer .. I was a priority application and money only went out of my bank a few days ago and I am yet to receive my letter from them. if you aren't priority application and it wasn't a Feb date it could be a while yet . You will either have your cheque cashed or get it back if you are unsuccessful.
