So we have just booked a Centre Parcs trip to Longleat - leaving on Good Friday at "normal" prices. It nearly doubles the week after!

Hope some other Welshies can take advantage of this!

eh?

I thought Good Friday was hideously expensive.

School holidays in England are 4th-19th April.

Good Friday is 9th April, and should be the most expensive day of the year I would think.

That's odd. We've got the week before and week after Easter off school here in Cardiff.

Have you got the two weeks afterwards then? I'm confused.

Oh 2010.

Ah.

You really need to change your username from "IwishIwasmoreorganised "

to "IamincrediblyorganisedandIbookmy holidaysayearinadvance"

Still not sure you're right though.

2010:

www.merton.gov.uk/schoolterm.htm

holidays are 2nd April - 18th April (inclusive)

Good Friday is 2nd April

also I just checked the prices:

2 April 2010: 3 nights basic accommodation £379. Same price for 9th and 16th too.

The previous week (26/3/2010) is a fair bit cheaper, but certainly not 50% less

Im in leicestershire and our Easter holidays next year are 26th March to 12th April. Just had a look and to go to Sherwood the 1st week is £589 but at Longleat only £345, thats a big saving I might be tempted if I can find a code too !

That price was for a 2 bed comfort midweek.

It's not me that's incredibly well organised - it's a friend who's been before and asked us if we'd like to go with them.

We've got a woodland lodge (I think!) for £525. The week after it's £900 and something.

I tried and tried but couldn't find any codes that worked for bookings that far in advance.
