Re: Holiday Thread
Omg. We decided to book something last night so booked pontins
Wish we hadn't bothered. It's horrible , it's dirty, food disgusting
People are just nasty and rooms about to fall apart
Really wish we hadn't bothered.
Word of warning
DO NOT COME to pontins camber sands
We Lasted 3hours and have now checked in in quite expense hotel around the area as the beach Is fab
Talking to other guests here the said did u not watch watchdog? Lol now they say that I remember it last year or year before but didn't when we booked on friday
What a waste of money

Re: Holiday Thread
Sorry to hear that ansbro - it pays to check out Tripadvisor before you book anywhere.

Re: Holiday Thread
My lovely nan wants to p*y for me, my 2 kids, my sister & her little one to go to Disneyland Paris next year, we were thinking around May as the weather should be warming up, however booking through the Disney site its coming out at around £2,300 just for 3 days, can anyone recommend a cheaper way to book and if its worth?
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!

Re: Holiday Thread
You're probably right, but then would need lots of spending money, maybe I can convince her a week all - inclusive in the med would be just as much fun for the kids! She wants them to go to Disneyland Paris as my little niece is obsessed with Minie Mouse.ansbro81 wrote:you know for a little more u could have two week in florida disneyraineylb wrote:My lovely nan wants to p*y for me, my 2 kids, my sister & her little one to go to Disneyland Paris next year, we were thinking around May as the weather should be warming up, however booking through the Disney site its coming out at around £2,300 just for 3 days, can anyone recommend a cheaper way to book and if its worth?

Re: Holiday Thread
Weve been to Dineyland Paris on 3 separate occasions in total,(3 day break in february, 2 day break in june and 1 day in april the following year - two later ones were by accident, not preplanned), so 2 times - break in Disneyland hotel and once just for a day. Both times we stayed in Cheyenne hotel, its probably best value for money.... as the next one up is way too expensive and Santa Fe is much much worse and has no disney charm... and at the same time Santa Fe is not that much cheaper then Cheyenne....
All this was about 2 years ago when we could afford much more than now, but I dont think much changed with prices and hotels since then....
I booked the february break with disneyland paris website directly and booked plane tickets to paris with ryanair. We had a special Disney coach transfer from the airport to the Disneyland Paris, I dont think weve prebooked it, I think we just pa*d before jumping on the coach... honestly dont remember. I do remember that Ryanair + direct hotel with park tickets booking/package was TIMES! cheaper then the same through a touroperator..... That was a february half term....
Second time I booked train+1 night in the hotel + 2 days park tickets as a package through a french travel agency in Nantes... That was by accident, our hotel in Nantes was doublebooked? and I just could not find an alternative accomodation due to some congresses... so I went to a french travel agency and booked a local break to Disneyland paris from Nantes ( the local french train was very nice! and good times!) that was june half term....Hotel Cheyenne was again the best option and the third time (april) we had an extra day before boarding a eurostar train with no plans, so we went for a day and went to a wild west show in the evening...
2300 pounds for disneyland paris sounds a bit steep.... Look for all the offers! Children under 7 free, children under 12 free... 1 extra free night, etc... At disneyland paris website all offers can be combined! I can tell you more about both parks, where to eat, etc... PM me the questions? Ill be happy to help!

Re: Holiday Thread
Just checked the number of adults... You may fit into 1 room with a double bed, bank beds and an additional extra bed,raineylb wrote:My lovely nan wants to p*y for me, my 2 kids, my sister & her little one to go to Disneyland Paris next year, we were thinking around May as the weather should be warming up, however booking through the Disney site its coming out at around £2,300 just for 3 days, can anyone recommend a cheaper way to book and if its worth?
They should have an option for 2 adults and 3 children! No one will check if its your husband or your sister....
