    Hi guys, I am looking for something in Turkey, was thinking Dalaman for 7 nights. For a party of 4, we want to go after the 1st of April but be back by the 17th so 7 nights within these dates.

    I have seen a deal for £299 at http://uk.regional-departures.travelzoo.com/northern-england/768936 but think it might be too quite.

    I was going to say AI but half board will be better
