Cheap Holiday

Hi all

Stayed at Hotel Pamps H/B 2 years a go I think 2 of us paid £300 each for a week with balkan and the Ski Pack was £110.

Anyway

There are about 5 of us thinking of going this year we don't mind which resort but want it to be cheap whats
best should we rent an appartment or book a hotel or do a package holiday.

Whats the Cheapest way of booking our trip????

re: Cheap Holiday

you should look at thomson, they have hb deals to pamps for 289 pounds, i personally think thats a bargain, they have apartments this year as well so you get more room and hb still.

re: Cheap Holiday

If you are not restricted to school hols, Easy Jet flights are cheap and you can rent an apartment that sleeps 6 privately for under £300 for the week. Even when you add on transfers, food and ski packs I would say you can still do it cheaper than the package holiday.
We got 5 return flights for under £450 (total)

re: Cheap Holiday

Lee incredible price.
But not everyone is as lucky to be able to book out of peak season/during term time so even though you quote stunning prices for families its just not realistic.

I'd say one reason why families do come to bulgaria is that they can take their family skiing during school hols time and not be taken to the cleaners on the price. Plus its a small resort and very -um- you can get away from the rest of the world/stay there and have no idea whats going on in the world due ...

re: Cheap Holiday

Exactly Welshy.
OK so our flights with EJ are cheap because we are prepared to travel on New Years Day at 6 o\'clock in the morning (when the rest of you are in bed planning to spend your day suffering with hangovers) but when you have small children you can\'t really celebrate in quite the same way as you used to. So our holiday IS all during school hols.And we\'ll just celebrate the new year on the piste!
