Due to a mixture of the credit crunch, me being a mature student and DP having had an accident and not working, I am going to see if I can get a Sun holiday this year for us. Ideally we are looking at North / Mid Wales, Southern Scotland and Yorkshire. Are there any fab places to go that we should ask for? Are there any dives to be avoided at all costs? Can anyone share their experiences from years goneby? Thanks!!!

J2O · 09/01/2009 15:59

J2O · 09/01/2009 16:28

the other 2 are free on selected dates but can't use the token

nappyaddict · 09/01/2009 16:41

Oh don't suppose you know if you can use the other 2 in hampshire for may half term. I can always be optimistic

nappyaddict · 09/01/2009 16:42

Oh and one more thing. Can you see if 147 or 148 have an indoor swimming pool please. Sorry to be a royal PITA

J2O · 09/01/2009 16:51
