    I've been Money Tipped!
    Can anyone recommend anywhere in the Vendee? We've stayed at Bel for a few years, just fancy somewhere different?

    227 La Yole 228 La Foret St Jean 229 Le Clarys Plage 230 Les Genets 231 Sol A Gogo 232 Les Ecureuils 233 Le Pin Parasol 234 La Garangeoire 235 La Foret St Julien 236 Les Ilates 237 Interlude 238 La Loubine 239 Le Littoral 240 La Dune Des Sables 241 Bel
    Also, which of these insist on the males wearing speedos (hubby wont), Bel is happy with swimming shorts. I know some of them specify no shorts, but I wondered how strict they were. TIA

    We stayed at Fantasy Island once, don't go there! Doubt you will beat Butlins though. I have just booked Oct 1/2 term at Butlins Skegness via the Mail offer so there is still availabilty.

    Thank you
    We don't usually go in half terms we go in term time

    There is only ONE site in Ireland and that is Hagan's Leisure's Causeway Coastal Holiday Park in Ballycastle. I can find only the limited info given by the Sun re their sites, nothing else!
    Have searched Hogan's site too.
    Can anyone please tell me anything about it, anyone been there?
    Do they take dogs?
    I have emailed Hogan's but may have left it a bit late by now as I want to book as soon as booking office opens!! ;)

  • Just wondering if anyone can help me out, been doing these holidays for a couple of years now, on the last lot back in September I decided to book Butlins for the first time.
    I booked it for April and as yet have had no confirmation from the park, I had an email from the Sun that said if my confirmation didn't come through by end of Sept then to contact the park. I did contact them before christmas and was told my details would be put on the system at end of feb.
    Has anyone else had to wait this long for confirmation before or should I be chasing them up, just getting a bit worried as my holiday should be in 3 months and I'd rather have it paid off sooner than later.

    Considering one of the sites at Yorkshire...anyone recommend any of these through personal experience ? :D

    40 Sand Le Mere Holiday Village
    41 Park Resorts Skipsea Sands
    42 Park Resorts Barmston Beach
    43 Haven Reighton Sands
    44 Haven Primrose Valley
    45 Haven Blue Dolphin
    46 Park Resorts Cayton Bay

    Thank you :D

    Also Check out Haven Thorpe Park at Cleethorpes (its in the Lincs list) a stones throw away from the Yorkshire Border and is close to Mablethorpe, Skegness.

    I am a Yorkshire Lass and have been to 44 and 45.

    Blue Dolphin (45) is nearer to Scarbrough (15 mins away) and is a smallish site with a small pool not very deep. It caters better for camping and touring.

    Primrose Valley (44) is nearer to Filey ;) Has beach access. The better facilities are here as it is the largest of the Haven sites in the area. Good for day fishing, riding bikes and evening entertainment. Better for children and families.

    We tried to use both sites when we booked direct but you cannot because they colour code the entertainment passes so stop you doing so! :rotfl:

    Both are within 5 miles of each other and are great for visiting Filey, Whitby, Scarbrough, Bridlington.

    Ive been to (44) Primrose Valley a few times and find it the best one for children, also been to Thorpe park at Cleethorpes which is good too but you need to book early for both
