Sun Holidays and compulsory entertainment passes - Manorbier

I booked Manorbier online with Sun Holidays. I have received the site invoice and it has entertainment passes - for the past six years with other sites I have had these removed as we do not use site facilities - however the Manorbier invoice says the entertianment passes are not optional and must be paid. Has any one come across this before - is there any way round it? I no longer have the brochure which came through the post to check what it says in there about the entertianment passes and I have sent an email to the Sun querying this but with no reply. Help!

    Yes i have heard of this as well, but i cant remember which sites/companies make you pay for them.We rarely pay for entertainment passes any more on the uk sites, and the Europe ones are all free:)
    Did it indicate when you booked that the passes weren't optinal?
    I wonder if more of the Sun hols are going this way.

    We had to pay for the passes too for a holiday at haven, they added bedding but we are taking our own. The last holiday we went on, they were considerably cheaper but they seam to be getting dearer what with having to pay for electric, passes etc.

    Lets hope we get some nice weather for our holidays.

    Remember though that Entertainment and Clubroom passes are optional. However, these passes may be required for access to facilities such as swimming pools, bars, restaurants, etc. The charges are listed by each park and are charged per person per break (pppb).

    off the sun booking website....
