How the heck do you find availability for a single park ?  I have tried every Fri-Mon date and cant fine one for Holiday Resort Unity (Somerset)

Very little left for that site (7 March is all I have found doing a quick check).  Haven Burnham-on-sea is just down the road and has good deals on for non-school holiday dates.

https://www.haven.com/offers/sun-holidays

Most of us on here booked/or tried to book our holidays at around 11pm last night when the last code word first became available, but availability wasn't great then.

OK thanks.  I had a feeling that there wouldn't be any Weekend deals available.  In the past I have had some super cheaper deals through the papers here but booking direct with HRU is far too expensive for a weekend (especially when I have to leave on the Sunday due to child being back at school on the Monday).  I'll see what I can get with Haven.

I'm probably going to book direct for June, the weekend of the 10th is £99 stay only, or £129 with passes for a family of four.  That's cheaper than Resort United would have been under the new Sun pricing structure which was £39.5 x 4 (£158), plus £9.50 each for passes, but it all depends on your budget and when you can go.

Thanks for the Codes essex_boy, I have booked in Cornwall, 3 nights costing £121, I intend to upgrade to a Siver standard caravan, pay for the passes and have their Linen, I suspect when I have completed this, it will be no cheaper than booking direct, I phoned for a direct price yesterday on the same site and it was £229 for the Silver, same date, I will let you know when the final bill comes in !

Thank you to everyone who contributed here and especially @essex_boy!🙏
I couldn't find anything in the UK in the school holidays I wanted but managed to book 7 nights in Lake Garda for £160 for October ½ term. And Easyjet flights for 3 were less than £300 so I'm really pleased with a week in the Italian Lakes for me and the kids for less than £500 😊😍
Not counting my chickens as had numerous holidays cancelled over the past 2 years but will be fabulous if it happens!🤞
This thread was relatively quiet this year, hope people got something they're happy with 😊

We went to Lake Garda October 2020 just before the second Uk lockdown, it’s very beautiful 
If you like history I’d recommend a visit to Verona and the Gladiator Arena

Thanks so much for doing this.

I managed to book a Monday to Friday break in Cornwall for October

Wow, that looks amazing, thank you! We're hoping to have a bit of a look around as the site will be mainly closed apart from one of the restaurants. Were you at Bella Italia?

Yes, went to the Pizza restaurant on site that was open, very nice and not to expensive 
There wasn’t any entertainment, they was having a Hallowe’en Party but that was on the day we was going home so we missed it 
Verona also has Juliet’s Balcony but we didn’t have time to see that on our visit as it’s a long way from the Arena 
They still use the Arena for Opera concerts but because of Social Distancing they was cancelled when we was there

Really appreciate you sharing your experience, @essex_boy! Good to know the pizza restaurant isn't too expensive as think we'll be using that a lot! I went to Verona in my late teens when inter-railing and now really looking for to going back there, thanks 😊🙏❤

We tried to book a 4 night in Cornwall in October for 2 + dog. Nothing available anywhere. Booked direct with a site no problem. Go figure….
