Holidays in the UK/ Learn to Swim on Holiday
How do you feel
about using holiday time to learn to swim with a UK
holiday learning to swim. We can
accommodate you at the pool or arrange accommodation in local B&B / guest
house or in a hotel (with bed and breakfast). If we know how far you need to
travel we can make suggestions for flights or train services for those that
prefer not to drive. Car rental can also be arranged.

Swimmers and Travellers Tips
- Leave plenty of time to get to the airport / port by the stated check-in
time. Please check your vehicle, traffic conditions and / or the running of
public transport before you leave.
- Make sure that you take all necessary documents with you and ensure that
your passport, visas, vaccinations and health requirements are up to date and
conform to local regulations.
- If you need to take regular medication, make sure you have enough with you
to last your holiday and any delays that may occur. You should also take a
spare supply packed separately from your main supply in case you lose your
first supply.
- If you are taking valuable belongings on holiday such as jewellery or a
camera you should consider covering them under your household contents
insurance. Many insurance companies agree to extend the cover to include
valuables whilst on holiday.
- Do not pack valuables, money, electrical equipment or fragile items into
check-in baggage. Keep these items with you at all times.
- Never leave your belongings unattended or with strangers, especially on
beaches or at airports, nor in vehicles.
- Carry cash only for immediate requirements and use travellers cheques or
credit cards wherever possible. Also, use safety deposit boxes if there are
available.
- Check your baggage for damage each time you reclaim it.
- We recommend that you drink bottled water whilst abroad. Even in
relatively safe places your body will not be used to the local tap water.
- Make sure you avoid ice in your drinks.
- The sun abroad can be much more powerful than you are used to at home,
particularly if you are on the water. To prevent sunburn and sunstroke, stay
out of strong sunlight and drink plenty of (bottled) water.
- Think before you dive into swimming pools and the sea. Check the depth and
for dangerous objects in the water. Do not drink alcohol and swim.

50 ways to save on your holidays
Richard Browning
SCHOOLS are clamping down on parents who take
their children on holiday during term time. At best, to get permission for even
one extra day off at either end of a holiday requires a degree of form filling
and letter writing that wouldn't be out of place in a Soviet police station.
Even then, the final decision rests on the whim of the chairman of governors.
While the difference a day makes to a child's education is unquantifiable, it
can add thousands of pounds to the price of a family holiday. But with this
option of saving money virtually outlawed, how do you stick within the rules
without breaking the bank?
Here are some examples from the article on how to save money on your holiday.

This is Money to read the holiday article in full.
13. Save up for the holiday you really want
You don't have to slum it. If you plan ahead and save your money like people did
in the 'olden' days, you can have the holiday you want, where you want and when
you want - even in the school holidays.
14. Take your bike
If you can't travel in the small hours, taking your family by car to the
Continent in the summer can cost a small fortune. So long as you tell the ferry
company in advance, most will allow you to take your bikes for free. This is
especially viable if you're visiting Holland or the Belgian coast, which are
famously rather flat.
15. Go youth hostelling
Did you know that in spite of the name, youth hostels are not the preserve of
the young - and many have family rooms?

16. Interail
Again, not just for gap-year students. There are many European and
country-specific rail schemes to enjoy. If you're really savvy you can travel on
the overnight trains with your own cabin to avoid booking a hotel.
17. Think about cheap hotel chains
In Britain, there's Travelodge and Holiday Inn Express among others. In France
there are tons of them dotted all over the country with rooms for three people
from less than £20 a night. They're close enough to all the major tourist areas
to make it a real viable option for the cost-conscious francophile.
18. Do your own research online
You don't have to pay a fortune or spend years trawling the globe for the hidden
gems. Just log on one or more of the travel websites and read the views of
previous guests. Remember: cheap doesn't have to mean nasty.
