Any ideas?

I thought butlins/haven maybe- something like that but have never been and for the upper end of accomodation looks quite costly. Is it worth it? what's the cheaper end of accom. like?

Also other ideas... is it expensive to stay in hotels round the cost?

Thought maybe a camp/caravan site as I could put dd to bed and sit just outside the door with some wine but don't know what to expect or even where to start!!!

thanks in advance,

haven have some deals from £99 atm. usually a lot more expensive.

basic accomdation at butlins is ok, a little more 'worn' than the upper end but ok. i know what used to be gold years ago is now standard as they built some new ones.

you can get a 4star or silver caravan at great british holidays/haven for this weekend at selected parks very cheap.

misdee is that £89 each? £89 for all is amazingly cheap!!

I'm off to try and find the Great Bristish Holiday website..

TVI - hopefully if you googled Great British Holidays you will have found the site, but if not this is what's on offer for June. July and August will be pricier.
