    ring them quick.
  • I dont want to pee on anyones bonfire,but we went to Pontins in Brean Sands and the end of May .It was the absolute pits damp mouldy and very very dirty we ended up with a refund and booked into a caravan park down the road which was fab.It was so bad that we photographed every bit of grime ect and have passed them onto trading standards,Pontins head office etc. The fact that they are giving the breaks away speaks volumes.

    sorry but i have to disagree, we have been to Brean for the last 3 summers running (always stayed in a club apartment) and have always found it clean, no mould or damp, the activities are great and the bluecoats always get even the shyest kids involved...
    im sure some people will always fnd something to moan about, i once saw a review of a great hotel on tripadvisor and the poster had actually slagged the place off for only having one soap dish in the bathroom and that it was too small!! :mad: you really cant please some people!

    Camber was a bit of dump when we went 4 years ago, ive heard its improved but i wont be going back there to check!

    we are off to Hemsby for the week tomorrow (booked with a regular customer special offer not this deal) we LOVE Brean but it occured to me how silly it was to drive all the way across to the other side of the country and then not leave the camp! so we are trying out one a bit nearer to home :D

    does anyone think their is any hidden cost in this free holiday? like when we check in, they hand us a bill?
  • Hi, I booked mine t'other day and been reading the posts to see who else is going to Prestatyn on 29th June, sounds lik a fair few of us. Also, thought I'd ring pontins and ask about bed lined too and we are in a classic 1 bed so bed lined is provided. Electricity is about £2-3 a day, depending I guess, on whether your in the bar a lot!! hehe :j

    Can someone tell me do you get issued with like an entertainment pass with your name on?

    I just wonder because when my hubby rang to get a booking with his friend and friend's son, he said his friend was a 'Miss' (he has a unisex name) just incase they didn't want all male bookings or something. So now hubby is worried that friend will be none-to-pleased that he is down as a 'Miss'. lol. So, will he even find out? Or does it not matter at all.
