    For Self catering quoted £1737.00 by Thomson's for 3 adults as it's cheaper than 2 adults and one 14 year old child.

    I would like to go 1/2 board but can't seem to find this option to see how much extra it is.

    I'd like to get it booked in the next couple of days if possible.

    Thank you.

    Going a few days earlier and returning by 29th August as OH is due in work on this date and might not be able to change his dates. We prefer Cardiff Airport but will go to Bristol or even London.

    I can't beat these prices I'm afraid but just to let you know the St George Gardens is still available but the Queens Bay Beach including the extras you mention (sea view, 25kg luggage, reserved seats) has now increased in price to £2399.00) on www.firstchoice.co.uk

    Where/How have you obtained this quote? Are there any children in your party? My system states "This hotel is only suitable for families. All bookings must contain at least one child under the age of 16yrs. Bookings of all adult groups will not be accepted. Family activities are available from May-October".

    Can anybody beat this quote??
