I hate to admit this but I find Centerparcs a good deal for a few people (8 - 10) - plus you get the added bonus of laughing at the posh parents losing patience with their kids!!!!

Oh I am horrid!

You could try www.english-country-cottages.co.uk

They are very good and pretty reasonable if you are looking at large numbers

We've ended up booking here:

www.sandybrook.co.uk

Not as swish as we would have liked but the guy who was supposed to be sorting it - because he works for the tourist board - was incompetent and lazy so everything nice was already booked!!

Let's just hope they don't shut the pool while we're there!!
