    Sloppychops have you heard of a company called www.holidaysinspain.com? I can get the dates for 240 euros (approx £224) but haven't heard them mentioned on here they are ATOL protected if I book on credit card will I be ok? Unless you can find me a better deal but I have been looking everywhere!
