    My turn on this! Seems a really good deal for a place with excellent reviews, but anything off this price would be great. Most of the places teletext holidays seem to offer have chronic reviews so this was a pleasant surprise to find and there's no option to book online so I'm unsure if the £542 x 4 is the final price before I call today.
