Hi all, been a while since I was on here, feeling a bit guilty as only logging on to ask for advice again !

We're thinking of going to Le Soleil  in Argeles in July and renting a moblile home,think we are going to leave out tent at home and just use it for Ireland/Uk holidays -was such a pita trying to fit everything in the boot and roofbox on the way home from the vendee last year - the stress arrgh .

I was looking at prices for soleil own statics  and they were coming out at about 1400 euro for 2 weeks ? So I went onto keycamp and they gave me a price of about 1500 euro for mobile and ferry crossing portsmouth-cherbourg included.

I always thought that booking with the sites directly would be cheaper ?

Any opinions on what soleil's own mobiles are like or whether I should go for a particular holiday company- Keycamp/Canvas etc ?

Thanks !

Dont know about this campsite and also dont know when you are thinking of going ,but if it is low season.  Have a look at Holiday Cheque (part of Alan Rogers/Kawan Group).  They do a fantastic price, but low season only, it works out between £29 - £41 per night depending on which campsite and time you go.  We have used them three times and the quality of their mobiles and equipment is superb.  Also if you book 14 nights you only pay for 11 or if you book 7 nights you pay for 6.

The website is www.holiday-cheque.com

Have a look I am sure you will be impressed, but only if you can go low season

Hi Miss Campette

The company I was referring to was Holiday Cheque, Not Camping Cheque although it is all part of the same organisation.  Holiday Cheque only deal with statics not camping pitches.   Unfortunately they only do bookings up until the end of June and from 31st August, so sorry it will not be an option for you.  But maybe in the future give them a thought, as they are brilliant.  

Last years holiday at Les Ranchisses in the Ardeche only cost us £320 for 14 nights, which was for everything including bed linen. We booked our crossing on Eurotunnel with Tesco Vouchers so all in all dont think that is bad value.
