We have finally pulled our finger out and decided to go on holiday with our little boy (3) in the May half-term; for personal reasons the summer holidays are not doable. Looking at the options, things are quite pricey (we definitely want somewhere that has a playpark and kids pool, and is by the beach).
I have noticed that some guides advocate waiting until the last 8 weeks or less to get the best deals. However, given it is half-term, I'm concerned that everything that fits our parameters will be booked up.
What are people's experiences like booking last minute for the May half-term? Should I wait, or should I just bite the bullet now? We aren't too fussed about which country we go to, we just don't want anything over 4 hours of flight time.
