Try looking again?

There must be different holidays being added, because when I first went on there wasn't the opportunity to book Newlands, Dorset at all but just looked (&booked) now about 90mins later.

I thought just to mention (if not already been said) that when people log-on to search the system it will then temporarily "lock" the one offered for you to book - for 10 mins unless you cancel, re-search or complete the booking. This is so the system can let you follow through with your search result offered to then buy it if wanted. Otherwsie while you are making the booking, someone else may also be doing it and you will clash. Basically while many people are doing searches some of the available dates/parks (especially popular ones) may seem not to be available because of this locking but then if you search again later they may appear as being available.

Booked for 4th June at kiln park Wales anyone been there before ??x

Yes we went there on a Sun holiday last October. It is a gorgeous park with gorgeous beaches in a gorgeous part of our country. We drove 6 hours from Yorkshire and we loved every single second. I am sure you will love it.

Yeah I see what you're saying.

But it wasn't that - Newlands wasn't listed online as a Dorset choice at all. But now it is. (Although it was listed in the brochure.)

you know I didn't get what I wanted last year one time, so I left it. Then a few days later I went back and just tried and got exactly what I wanted at Butlins.

I actually just checked again and Sunnydale in Skegness is now available! Am at the booking stage but now umming and ahhing about it being October half term, we froze on our caravan holiday last October lol. Would prefer August but in reality it would be too expensive as the apartment/caravan alone would be at least £320. (cheapest I can find) Sunnydale with sun hols is only £94 including service charge and entertainment passes. Ok with a difference of over £200 I think I made my own mind up! :j

No we stayed at Le Chene Gris last October which was fab
The reviews look good on La Croix de Vieux Pont so that eases the driving

We have always stayed at le Chene as its situated ideally for visiting dip I'm having a major unhappy moment that I can't book it for this year, I've nearly thrown all my toys out my pram lol

So, sadly, missed out on anything I wanted in Europe! I went out! Won't make that mistake next year.
All the seven day hols seemed to have gone. Is 7 days available on all dates?

Also, do any European holidays get reserved for people doing it by post? Is it worth me sending off for some dates that way or not?
