    Sorry if this has been asked before but I was wondering if it's possible to book more than one holiday with this offer?

    Thanks Bellajack

    We've booked 2 holidays for this year - but we put one in my name and one in Hubby's. We've also passed this offer onto family members despite them not having coupons and they've booked successfully.

    Does anyone know what the Premier accomodation is?On the Haven website they're under different names - Standard, Deluxe and Prestige, and on Breakfree they're Standard, Luxury+ and Premier. Are they the same?

    Just booked weekend at start of Easter hols in Primrose Valley, will have to travel down after school on the Fri tho:-(

    Just wondering if I don't book the entertainment passes and I change my mind when I get there, will I be able to purchase them at the same prices?

    hi

    Ents passes are i think £9 per person at Primrose Valley and from what i remember from booking a private van last year they are more than that £15 per person?? if buying direct from Haven. I would contact Primrose Valley and ask how much they are to buy this year.

    Re grades of accomodation and Haven, from what I can work out using the Haven accomodation chart and comparing with Daily Mail one

    Standard = same, 10ft wide
    Luxury = Superior ie still 10ft wide but more modern
    Luxury Plus = Deluxe or Deluxe Plus, 12ft wide, more modern
    Premier Plus = Prestige (only one with heating in all rooms)

    I think it's a minimum standard that you are paying for, I have only ever booked standard before and always received a higher level of accomodation. However, going in school hols this year when it will be busier and might not get upgraded so taking no chances and booked Luxury Plus.
  • Probably been discussed backwards in the thread (I think I've picked up most of the gist of it, but I've probably missed something).

    Why does this say that it's £15 PP when there are £10 breaks available?

    I've booked one which in total has cost me £42.50 for 4 (£2.50 booking fee).

    Bizarre.

  • the summer dates cost £15 pp Mokey so there the more expensive ones

  • Thank you for spotting this, have booked to go to Duinrell in Holland again.

    Re £10 thing. The point newsgroup_monkey was making is that the offer says "from £15". Whereas clearly the cost is actually from £10. f Premier Inn advertise rooms "from £29" that means £29 is for the cheapest rooms, restricted to certain days, the same would surely apply to holidays. If you are booking a spring break by post you are only asked to send £10.

    The only thing I can think is that The Mail want to distance themselves from The Sun in their advertising. So they advertise "Luxury Breaks from £15" but are willing to do the £10 offer for those only wanting Standard.
