Bargain Breaks At British Timeshares

Several leading timeshare developments are hoping to cash in on strong demand for stay at home holidays in the UK this summer - and are offering high standard accommodation at highly competitive rates.

De Vere projects with price cuts include a three-bedroom lodge sleeping eight at Belton Woods, in Lincolnshire, from £730 for three nights, a two-bedroom apartment sleeping four at The Carrick, close to Loch Lomond, from £815 for four nights, and lodges sleeping six at Cameron House from £550 for three nights.

In the Lake District, a three-night inspection mini-break at Seasons at Whitbarrow Village costs £99 for two, or just £16.50 per person per night. Reservations: 0845 330 2838, quoting reference OTE June 08.

These offers are available through the Organisation for Timeshare in Europe (OTE), which has announced a new system to handle complaints, including a dispute resolution scheme, in tandem with The Association of Timeshare Owners Committees.
