Thanks I've looked at welcome cottages but there were lots of bunks involved in the one available. OAP's were not too keen - good for a laugh :-)

I have used tesco vouchers before - very easy esp now they all have codes so can order online.

Julie cat - up to about £900.

Have you tried "googling" your choice of destination and then looking for privately offered self catering accn? Trouble is that one place for 8 of you is going to be expensive because there aren't a lot of places take such a large number of people plus of course you are in the top end of the "High" season. You might be better looking for 2 chalets/vans or similar

Our biggest problem is deciding where we want to go lol. Although I would love to go to Cornwall it's an 10 hour drive, would need lots of stops and not sure either my dad or I could survive it.

I want to visit my friend in Stevenage but last time the 6 hour drive nearly floored me and I'm doing worse now with my FM. Maybe I'll book a night in a travelodge half way.

Cheapest time to go on hols seems to be beginning of June but discovered last year that things are only just opening.

Sorry only just seem Shelli's message

Yes you can use Tesco vouchers with Haven. You need the vouchers in front of you when you book as you need to give them the Ref numbers, when you have made your booking you will be given your booking ref, you need to put this on the vouchers and send them to Hemel Hempstead, they must be received with in 3 DAYS.

When you make the booking you will need to pay a deposit by card to secure the booking.

Should you need to cancel you will get points put back onto your tesco card to the value of the vouchers,(you must take out the cancellation plan for this). The amount you get back depends on how soon the holiday is before you cancel.

Hope this makes sense

Did you know Travleodge are doing rooms for £9 per room per night?

Just looked up the holiday lettings - nice places but unfortunately the website / availability is not up to date. One i just looked at was last updated August 07 - so beware :-)
