Summer Vaca... Part 3

So Omouse went online and did some more research. Her theory was that shopping around would be good... so I found a few more potentially (cough) cheaper (cough) places to look at.

Hey, more options are a good thing.

These are basically holiday camps/apartments similar to HavenHolidays

I thought the Beach Side link looked cool.

And here were some links to sites that have Holiday Cottages.

And here's one that has everything!

So we've got lots of choices and I think we really need Athene input here.
Where's the best place?
What part of the country are we going to explore?

Do we want to go to a resort type place with lots of kids running about, or more of a secluded cottage close to the beach where we can set our own agenda, but may not have some of the same resources as a resort. (Long sentence... I know) I think there are ups and downs to both.

And, but not least.

The prices in August are horrendous. I could probably swing July - early July? Or should we stay with August? What's the difference in weather?

Okay... enough rambly.
