any of these any good?

triplets · 01/08/2008 22:32

All look lovely but all way over my poor budget but thank you. Just 4 nights somewhere would be good, around £100 a night. Shame we can`t go to France, Mac nurse says NO!

how about these

lindseyfox · 02/08/2008 11:27

hello hilltop cottage in middleton by wirksworth is nice its a 2 bed cottage one room has double bed and the other has 2 singles with room for a cot, maybe you could take a roll out bed or 2 of them could top and tail.

if you google the cottage you should get the details, if you email nicola direct, explain your situation and bet she will do you a fab deal.

weve been a few times and never charges us more than £30 a night.

triplets I posted on the other thread did you get anything with Parkdean or Park resorts.

triplets · 03/08/2008 23:57

Thank ypu Sebs, yes Park resorts had a couple of offers but they were too far away, Yorkshire or Wales. Its really to late now, unless we find something from say Thurs -Sun, hard at this time of the year. We have to be back Sun for hospital on Mon morning.

Hmm.
My MIL has a lodge in the North Lake District that she occasionally lets out and she hasn't had many takers at the moment. Is that too far for you I can ask her.
I know she charges less than £100 per night plus elec. It sleeps 4 in beds but large lounge for one in a sleeping bag?

Woody area and lake.

I have no idea if anyone is in it at the mo, if you want to email me legoates @ tiscali .co. uk
I can ring her tomorrow morning and ring you? Its in a lovely place won't put too many details on here as its her private holiday home but she does let it out to people from BILs work for long weekends.

Worth a try? Don't get too excited yet though cos I've no idea whether it will be available!

DP will prob be really annoyed at me sending my 'internet wierdos' to his mums

Flibbertyjibbet · 03/08/2008 23:59

Oh, just xposted with you saying Yorkshire and wales too far away... MILs lodge is quite a bit further.

Sorry!

Hope you find something.

Agree with another poster try Cottages4U, I used to work with a chap whose friend worked there and a lot of the cottages are available for midweek breaks.

seb1 · 04/08/2008 00:12

Park resorts have some 4 night breaks tomorrow in Essex, Kent and East Anglia.

triplets · 04/08/2008 00:22

I cannot get organized now to go tomorrow anyway, as DH has to pick up important prescription from docs at 12pm, would hardly be worth it then for 4 days, never mind, but thanks again.
