Any tips where to take the kids this year?
We had a tough '07, now it's just us 3, Mr Sunflower opted out.
Fancy some sun , sea and good fun for kids aged 8 and 10.
As cheap as poss, but all inclusive would be nice.
Any ideas much appreciated. xx

Go to Turkey. You will not regret it at all! Fab place fab people and they truly welcome kids.

A great place is Hisaronu which is near the famous Olu Denize lagoon that epitomises Turkey in all their advertising.

Hisaronu is up in the hills so is cooler than the beach. But it is only 10 mins away in the local minibus every 5 mins and cheap too.


Hisaronu has everything you want with loads to do nd loads to eat.

I know . We liked it so much we bought an apartment there last year!

There are some good hotels. Look up ASCENA VILLAGE. this is run by Thomson and is not at all bad. We have had some great times there.

I did a search on "Lone Parent Holidays" in Google and found a few useful sites.

Hi,
A bit of a late response to this question but it may help others.... I'd recommend http://www.SingleWithKids.co.uk for single parent holidays and breaks. They offer a great variety of trips for single parents starting with camping breaks through to Mediterranean villas and they're great value too. I've had 4 trips with them in the last year, my next is a camping weekend with 250 other single parents and children..... bring it on!!
