We are planning to visit disneyland Paris for a day on our way back home. We need to stay for two nights in the area. Any tips? We are family of four- two girls 7/5. I would love to do it as cheap as possible, but also as we are highly unlikely to return to the palace of dreams- would like it to be an enjoyable experience.

We stayed at the Davey Crockett ranch/lodges when we went. You still get the extra hours and parking at the park is included but it was significantly cheaper than the hotels in the park. If you have a car with you the journey is very easy between the accomadation and the park.

The kids did rename it 'the shed' but they has everything you need.

One more vote for the Davy Crockett, we liked it cos the kids had their room and there was another room for us as well as a living area/kitchen so didn't need to go to bed when they did.

Hope you enjoy our kids were 2 and 4 1/2 when we went and we had a wonderful time (enjoyed it much more than expected!)

we stayed at the Explorers hotel- as it was significantly cheaper than the Disney hotel but still affiliated with it. It has a regular shuttle bus that takes approx 5-10 min to get to Disney.


The pirate ship in the indoor swimming pool completely sold it for my girls who were 7 and 5 when we went last year- would thoroughly recommend.


Breakfast is great and there is an outdoor play area as well if you don't want to be at Disney all day.

My girls loved the explorers hotel. Cheap and cheerful. Basic rooms but two fab pirate ships (one in the lobby and one outdoors), a soft play area and a large swimming pool with slides etc. one of mine has allergies and they were very accommodating with the manager making her meals and storing and warming food brought from home. This made a huge difference to our trip.

Shuttle bus to the parks and nice to be away from the parks in the evening actually.

Didn't like the bedding and the bath was tiny, but then you get what you pay for when it comes to the rooms.

We stayed in an Air BNB apartment in Chessy, one stop 3 minutes on RER train from Disneyland.


Obviously didn't have the magic or facilities like pools etc of some of the hotels but meant we could self cater, taking picnics each day and had space to relax after children had gone to bed. As we were a large group (4 children) it was significantly cheaper than any hotel I could find at the time and made it possible. They all loved the parks but great for us to have a quiet base at the end of each day.

We stayed at explorers as well. Had adjoining room for the girls with bunk beds. They loved the pool and the soft play. One night getting back from Disney the shuttles were so busy we had to walk but it's not far. If you time it right and don't leave when everyone else is its fine.

Thank you for all of your postings. As I really do not intend to return, we've gone for a two night stay at a Davey Crocket lodge, half board plus:) Mickey cafe character meal here we come.


I'm currently stocking up on disney stuff 'a la' ed charity shops?. Also we'll take the Elsa dresses?. The children will love it!

We had a fantastic time and I hope you do to!


We were given advise before we went and so took lots of fruit with us and water bottles.

We used the ice from the hotel ice machine to keep things cool and made snacks from the breakfast buffet to get us through the day, without having to eat their not very healthy on-site lunches.


Probably saved a fortune as bottles of water were 5 Euros each. It's a cornered market once you're there - very pricey and no alternatives unless you go outside...


The hotels were fantastic and really easy to get around, whereever you stay!

      Cat Flap

      By intexasatthe moment · Posted

      We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.

      Cat Flap

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.

      Looking for good wifi suggestions please!

      By Alec1 · Posted

      With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.

      Should facial recognition be mandatory for retail outlets?

      I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
