Opening Hours
You’ve only just got rid of the kids after the summer holidays and before you know it, it’s October and the little critters are out on half term.
In other words, it's time for a family holiday. Whether you're all in need of some R&R and a bit of late season sun (bits of Europe can still be warm) or looking for something slightly more adventurous, we've got the inside track on all the best family destinations.
If you're planning a luxury family holiday for the October half term with young children then much-loved children's party people Sharky & George, who we've joined forces with, will put together a carefully selected goodie bag kitted with bits and bobs to keep the children entertained throughout the trip.
