AIBU?

To be really annoyed with Center Parcs?

A year ago I booked a break with them for this August.

Have just today had an email saying that there will be fairly major building work close to my cabin and to expect noise and disruption from 8am to 6pm.

They will give me £50 of vouchers to compensate me or I can book other (far more expensive) accommodation away from the noise or I can cancel my main summer holiday six weeks before I go.

I go for the peace and quiet and the squirrels and ducks by the patio not to spend it in a fucking building site.

Its not the brilliant place its made out to be.

But dd loves it and its normally a stress free holiday. I don't have to think or plan anything which is a big attraction. I can get out of bed Monday morning, throw some clothes and swimsuits in a bag. 20 min drive and I'm there.

I can cope with slightly grotty accommodation. I can just about cope with the crowded slightly chilly pool. I like the cycling and the wildlife.

Just read this post, and I'm booked up for sherwood middle of September and have not had this email, are you sure it is legit? I might ring them tomorrow, what lodge/ area was it? Also can you not ring sherwood direct and just kick up a fuss and hope they move you?

" Are you sure it's legit? "

Really? Have you not read the thread?

They should offer alternative non-disruptive) accommodation or give you a full refund.

You won't get that though.
