Hi Riadh
I checked all our supplers last night and I checked the hotels own website and none had two sea view suites - Travel Republic MAY have an allocation but it makes me suspicious. I dont think there are two sea view suites available and i am worried that there availablity is not live. If you really want those rooms book with them but i hate to say it - i dont think they have those rooms so I'm gonna have to pass on this one
By the way - i really hope im wrong - and there is a real chance they have exclusive allocation - let me know how you get on after the trip

Hi betterbargains4u
Yes we can beat this!
I had to do a bit of detective work but i'm guessing this is the Stansted flight (it could be Newcastle - either way I'll beat it)
We can do this for £420 per person saving you £120 overall
You will still be booked with Thomas Cooks so same flight, reps etc - and we will match their low deposit
