Great deals at [url= http://www.butlins.com/?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=PPC&utm_term=Skegness&utm_campaign={Skegness}&ito=GAG2500823411&itc=GAC14973904931&itkw=skegness# ]Butlins[/url] with a choice of destinations. You're going to have to put some serious thought into it though. Bognor Regis, Minehead or Skegness?

Alpine Elements - Hotel Christiana - overlooking Chevannes Lift. Had a great time there last year Food excelent and more importantly very central to riding. Price includes Breakfast & dinner , Also white water rafting and free bike hire for 4 days but its only a HT.

Some people had bad experiances with them i had a great one so im going back.

There do seem to be some around occasionally, but I've never been able to make use of them.
They pop up on here from time-to-time:
http://www.hotukdeals.com/travel/deals/hot

There's an RSS feed so you can get mailed when they come up.

Pretty random though.

Depends what you call a good price OP.

We've had a couple of package deals to nice hotels in the Balaerics for £300-£400 pp (latter all inclusive) over the last couple of years.

But there don't seem to be so many ridiculously cheap deals as a few years ago, or maybe we are more fussy now.

might be a bit late but if you have small kids then Butlins is v.good. We went to Minehead and the weather really doesn't play a role.

We got one to turkey a few weeks back from last minute but it was a struggle-they were flying of the shelves so to speak--everyone was hacked off with the weather here so it seemed we all had the same idea--main problem was getting flights, we went in to check places on trip advisor & when we returned a few minutes later, the flights were gone-you have to be quick!

Yes. I got an excellent deal with BA recently (Insert A-team joke at your leisure).

Which is nice.
