Holiday Help!

Hi,

Myself and my family (husband and 3 children aged 7/9/11) have holidayed exclusively in the U.K. since the children were born bar one trip earlier this year to explore the Artic circle area for a snowy adventure.

We're keen to get exploring more as a family but are finding cost prohibitive.

We've thought a week away in the Easter holidays or May half term may be cheaper.

The children are very keen to go in a sea without wetsuits and that's their only requirement!!

We'd like somewhere with some water sports options, maybe a water park, nice beach and not too touristy/bit off the beaten track. Our idea of holiday hell would be all inclusive and not leaving the hotel complex to give you more info.

Open to advice re accommodation. Always do glamping/holiday cottages in U.K.

Just don't really know where to start!!

Any help gratefully received.

Confused

Sounds excellent! And we usually go to south east France in August and it’s usually at least 30 degrees, this summer just gone was unbearable due to the heatwave. So I seriously doubt you’ll be cold Smile

PS I was talking about sea temperature. Average temperatures (air) are 24° so anything around that will be awesome! We've been on Norfolk beaches for a week in 11° temperatures so 24° will be positively tropical!!!

Done a few Canvas holidays, always enjoy then and they were in Brittany in August. Hot enough days(20-25c) and cooler evenings but suited us fine. Will be warmer in south.
