We visited Pontins last week with my little boy & I must say, although my little one had a fabulous time watching the childrens entertainment & visiting the fair at Southport, the biggest let down about this place is the cleanliness. …

We are a family of 4 & recently stayed at the Brean Sands Pontins. At first glance, we thought what are we all doing here asit seemed to be a very depressing place. …

I stayed at The LEonard hotel in January 2009. It was my second visit to this particular hotel and I stay in London reasonably regularly (2-3 times a year). FInding a decent cheap hotel under £100 a night that is central to the West End is hard, but this one is about the best I have found. …

We satyed in this “hotel” on a saturday night. Basically we were in a room above a pub. The noise was so bad from the street/pub & banging of the pub door that you could hardly here the “plasma TV” we will not be staying here again as there are other good quality options in Berwick.

Fantastic short break at the Mill Rythe Holiday Village (we also visited at xmas). We particulary enjoy the varied entertainment & the children absolutely love it too. Staff are very friendly & helpful. The food is really good & we have already rebooked for August.

Just comeback from a short break at the Ruda holiday park in Devon. We stayed in a “Hartland” caravan which was very nice & had everything we needed for our stay. The staff were all very helpful & friendly on the site & the shop was as you would expect had everything you would need, but at a premium price as is to be expected.

We all loved the Cascades pool & the food from the Coast Bar was again as to be expected for an on site bar/restuarant. In short, we had a good time & would return to that site with no hesitation.

Stayed just the two nights at the excellent Barceló Daventry hotel. Reception staff were extremely friendly & knowledgeable. Although the bar staff were friendly & pleasant, neither of the two on duty really knew their stuff. When I tried to order a pernod, neither had even heard of it, let alone tell me if they stocked it. …
