  • I wasn't even advised whilst paying how much the total balance would be I assumed it was £62 that's what it said originally. Then I was shocked to see the full price can I cancel??it has added on £24 service charge £40 entertainment passes
  • Please can somebody advise me

    It will add these figures as extras on all bookings unless they are free with some parks, the extras are normal.

    Yep, one of Martin's biggest tips over the years has been to pick the parks where either Entertainment passes are included or no service charges are applied. The parks pretty clear about the additional costs and you may not be able to cancel. I'd ring them and see if they can offer you anything else to save cancelling but tbh the holidays are so popular they're not in a position where they HAVE to give you anything.

    Most popular ones would be sold out,you can normally find something outside School holidays.
    There should be another Sun deal in July,if you do find anything you like this time you would be entitled to a priority code for the July offers.
    The non priority website opens today,the priority website opened just after midinght early Friday morning.
    I'll be posting Saturdays code around 8am this morning.

    I got Hendra Holiday Park in Cornwall 25th Aug :)

    Well done you :) But this does go to show that dates and availability must alter slightly.

    Reason I say this is I was desperately trying to book for August 25th when the priority site first went live on Thursday Night/Friday Morning and this date at that park wasn't available then (it offered me the 22nd instead I think)

    I've ended up with Dorset Cliffs for 13th to 16th June, then we are taking the train across to Parkdean Ruda on the other coast for the 16th - 20th June, so we got a week in Devon with a bit of juggling around ! (I'm travelling from North Wales, so for such a massive trek on the train I wanted to get as much squeezed in to the trip as possible!)

    Extra's are normally clearly listed park by park in the booklet that comes with your Priority Booking Reference. Sadly this was not case this time, which was always asking for trouble.

    You can cancel the Entertainment Passes if you don't require them, the £62.25 holiday charge and £24 service charge (if you've already paid it) are non refundable under any circumstances however

    When the total bill comes through from the site it could also have linen as another added extra.
    This would also need to be taken off if you want to avoid the cost and take your own
