hi, we are two adults and two ch looking for two weeks at an all inclusive, beach club style sunny holiday in July or August. So far, everything I've seen - eg in Turkey - is around 4000 pounds which I consider very expensive. OTOH, having had a cheap trip to Egypt last year, am I just unaware of how much things really cost these days?! Maybe the 4000 option is just what people are preapred to pay? Yikes.... THanks for any better ideas!

We have just booked 2 weeks in Turkey but done it independently and it will cost about ?1300 for almost everything for 3 of us.


We are flying with BA to Istanbul, staying in a family run guest house for 3 nights, then getting internal flights down to the south. We are staying in Cirali for 11 nights which has had wonderful write ups and the place we are staying at is 90 euros a night for all 3 of us to stay in a wooden bungalow with evening meals and breakfast.


Here's the place we are going to (number 5).

And the accommodation:

We are going in late May / early June so I think this has made it a little cheaper than going in the peak of summer but I do think if you look at independent holidays you will get a holiday for much less than ?4k if you look around.


Good Luck!

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
