To ask what you have planned for the summer holidays and what you paid for it?

[HackAttack]

Normally I love to organise things in advance but my husband had an unexpected work change meaning I couldn't.

Now I feel totally lost as to where to go, UK, abroad, what kind of holiday, what to budget. I'm hoping hearing other people's plans might inspire me?

We have planned for 20 days on West coast of France camping. Have all our gear anyway then the pitch for five of us and a few dogs plus chunnel is £1500.

aaah this sounds lovely. I’m really keen to go to Croatia

Ancient dog who may or may not make the summer scrapped the planned trip to France. We’ve booked a lovely house in the Scottish Borders for a week in the school summer holiday, cost about £1600- which is more than I’d normally spend on a UK holiday but less than France- but last year’s Devon house was thoroughly bloody depressing and I really wished we’d stayed at home so I wanted somewhere nice this year.

3 bed cottage in Cornwall, £3K for 2 weeks. Provably another 1K for activities/eating out.

Who is this through please?

14 nights on a tour/beach holiday in Costa Rica, about £12k. I'm massively excited.

Oldest DC is going to Haven with his friend's family for a week, £100 spends. It's not costing us anything as we're taking friend to Center Parcs at half term so we've called it quits.

Not sure what we'll do with younger DC while DS is away. She wants to go to PGL again so that's a possibility, about £900.

Then we'll probably stay at home for a couple of weeks so the DC will mooch around the house and have friends over while I WFH. I would say it costs nothing but they both eat like a plague of locusts.

Last week, we'll probably go to see family. Costs ~£1k with flights, hotel and food.

3 days in London in June.
Transport from Glasgow=£20
Air B&B for two nights=£70

I'm allocating £100 for spending money but hoping I won't use it all since I'm just planning to do all free things and eat cheaply.

we booked bits separately. We are flying Ryan Air. Flights at decent times and with some luggage were £1200. 2 bed apartment is £1100. Transfers on top. I did book back in October though as I could see prices creeping.

We're going to the Cotswolds water park, paying a ridiculous amount, but it's to celebrate end of A Levels for DS1 and thinking it could be the last family holiday he comes on

Rhodes,2 weeks in August, 2 adults and a teen who counts as an adult causing the price to go up to nearly £8k

Love that idea!

2 weeks camping in our motor home, 1 in Yorkshire, 1 in S. Wales. Total about £400.

We’re staying in north wales to explore all the castles. Paid £260.

We booked salou for 2020 but its been put back til now. £2000 for the villa (it's sleeping 6 of us) and £1000 for flights (2 adults and an infant.) Flights are so much more expensive this year. Only for the villa being booked we prob would have given it a miss as we can't really afford it but it's with family so we've been really looking forward to it..for years!

2 adults
2 kids (teens)
A week in Turkey at a 5* all inclusive last week of august / start of September - 4k
I can't wait

Also going Dublin for a long weekend without the kids this weekend flights and hotel will come to around 450, but food will be expensive

Hoping to go for a cheap last minute adult holiday in the sun in June if I can afford it too

caravan at southerness-middle of may, 3 nights- £200
sa coma for two weeks all inclusive, start of June £3000
still looking for a get away for August time

We have booked a (beautiful) villa just outside of Florence for 7 days which costs £4.5K but then we have flights and all food etc on top (flights £2k and food will be about £1k ish) for 4 adults and 3 kids, as we are taking my parents. At the end of the summer we taking the kids to Prague for 5 nights but haven’t costed that up completely yet (probably £2k all in) in October DH and I are going on an adults only luxury trip to do the typical ancient Egyptian tourist route (Cairo, Luxor, Nile Cruise etc) and that is £9k plus spending money 😬 but I am sooooooooo excited as it is our 40th birthday gift to each other! I know we are extremely spoilt this year but I love holidays!!!

We are going to Italy for 2 weeks in August (near Venice) seafront apartment/hotel with a large pool for 5 people and a dog - €140 per night for the room. We only booked recently so were very lucky to get something fairly cheap.

A week in Tenerife AI in August, four of us £2500 with easy jet holidays. Booked last July.

It's a 2 storey apartment rather than a room*

Camping in in-laws garden for 3!nights....they live 30 mins away and have a normal sized garden....3 children aged 6,5 and 3 are very excited 😀 We will make it fun with BBQ’s, games and star gazing 😀

Unsure and unsteady
I am envious of your holiday plans.

7 night self catering holiday home in Devon £500ish. +£100 ish on day trips, food etc.

4 nights camping at site with many amenities. £300, no cost for day trips as all on site.

Oh we are also staying with family in Cornwall and camping at my grandparents in their paddock, both of those the accommodation is free.
