cheap (ish) all inclusive style family uk holidays?

ok we are wanting to book somewhere in the uk for october half term. have 2 children 5 and 3.

would prefer dinner bed and breakfast so we dont have to worry too much about food !

need lots of entertainment/activities/free things to do which are included. i guess butlins style?

open to any suggestions. cheapish please! have had a quote for butlins for £600 so less than that is fab.

children enjoy parks, funfairs, swimming, activities etc- any entertainment.
Started comping October 2011, no wins as of yet. Would really love to win a short uk break so we can take the children away :D Thank you to everyone who takes the times to post competitions and good luck:j

    why not book butlins for october half term through the sun holiday promotion?

    even if you have to buy a priority code from ebay for £20 it would save you £100's...

  • The sun have just started there summer promotions, i worked for Eurocamp for the past few years and had a fair few holiday makers come to my site. It was a 5* campsite and they got the same access as people paying £1k a week..... definatly worth a shot imho.
