when do you want to go, and for how many nights?
Are you sorting out your travel separately? Do you need to stay onsite, or would very nearby (with free/cheap local transport) suit?

okay well for travel, driving and ferry/eurotunnel will be cheapest for your family size. If you have tesco clubcard points, you can use them for ferry and eurotunnel crossings.

hotels for 5 plus an infant means you are probably looking at an apartment in val d'europe - have a look at the residhome prestige, the Adagio, or the sejours et affaires. These are all very close to the train station at val d'europe, one stop and 5 minutes journey from the gates of the parks. Or you can drive there in less than 20 minutes.

4 days in the parks for park tickets will be the main expense, and you will need 2 adult park hopper tickets and 3 childrens hopper tickets (ie anyone aged 3 or over needs a park entry ticket).

If you can wait until May to buy your park tickets, you may be able to get free annual passes for 2 of the children if you buy annual passes for yourself and your partner (these usually work out just as cheap as adult 4-day park hopper tickets anyway). Then you'd only have one more child's 4-day park hopper ticket to buy (look at attractiontix etc for the price).

check DLRPMagic for annual pass prices and conditions (check blackout dates etc) - the free passes will usually come up on cemultiavantages or promoparcs, but they're not on sale yet.

Hope this helps,

Do you have to go over a weekend? DLP is always much much busier on Saturdays and Sundays compared to midweek, because its local to Paris and gets many local guests on the weekends.

no i can go during the week, euro tunnel would be £88 return, just trying to find a hotel now x

TIP

When you enter the park, it's a good idea to take a trip around the park on the railroad to get "the lie of the land".

The only problem is that almost everyone else has the same idea.

The train goes around anti-clockwise. So, turn left and walk to the station down the line (it's not far) and get on there.
