The Sun £9.50 Holidays in Europe

Sun £9.50 Holidays Germany LegolandAs I said last year, January is a great time to plan and book your Sun £9.50 holiday. The Sun £9.50 Holidays are fantastic value for travelling to Europe (see our Sun £9.50 holiday to Holland) and there’s even deals on ferries. This year I am thinking of going to Germany for a few reasons – one of which is that I have an 11-year-old who is being really scholarly about learning the language. In fact I have never heard him be so passionate about a subject. But I also discovered that we can get 50% off the entry to attractions with our annual Merlin Passes which includes LEGOLAND® Deutschland and LEGOLAND Discovery Center, Berlin and Duisburg! As well as Heide-Park Resort, Madame Tussauds Berlin, and the SElA LIFE Centres in Berlin, Hannover, Königswinter, Konstanz, München, Oberhausen, Speyer and Timmendorfer Strand. With that in mind I set out to find out whether there was accommodation near to the attractions through The Sun £9.50 Holidays.

The Sun £9.50 Holidays in Germany

sun £9.50 holidays GermanyThere are two parks in Germany as part of the £9.50 deal – Südseecamp, Wietzendorf and Campingplatz Herbolzheim. Plus on the 17th& 20th April and 16th and 19th October they are both available for the £9.50 per person price. In this instance it is worth checking the opening times of attractions you may want to visit. Not only do you want to consider your school holidays but also the schools in Germany.

Sun £9.50 holiday codes MunichReviews Campingplatz Herbolzheim suggest that it is a lovely peaceful Eurocamp site but it has no on site pool. It is South-West of Germany and near to France and Switzerland. The nearest famous place I know of on the map is Munich. There’s a good public pool a short walk away which sounds like it suits younger family members. That the owner is German (no surprise as it’s in Germany mind) and that the ability to speak German is very much appreciated.

Südseecamp is in Wietzendorf, which is on the north of Germany heading up towards Hamburg and much closer to Berlin. It has an indoor pool and according to reviews more English-speaking staff. This is obviously the better location for us to visit the Merlin attractions.

I’d really appreciate it if anyone has any further information or alternatively knows of any other good places to stay.

Simply pick 4 dates and 4 parks. Some dates are a guaranteed no more than £9.50 per person (based on a minimum of 4 people sharing).

Remember to look at the additional charges for entertainment and service (gas/electric) or tick the any park in area for a guaranteed service charge of no more than £3.75 per unit per night. Butlins are offering FREE service charge on all dates at all their resorts in ROOM accommodation. Decide whether you want to be catered for (selected parks only offer half board), if you want a luxury or luxury plus upgrade (sometimes you find this happens for free when you arrive anyway). Finally decide if you want to add on insurance. I note that this is £9.50 in the UK this year.

  4. I’m hoping to book a Sun holiday this year, even if it just a weekend break up the coast – change of scenery and all that

  6. Hi thanks for sharing codes as I’ve missed the first ones. I have noticed though that you have six codes and the sun code today which is bell says it is number 5

  7. wow, it’s really been 25 years! I remember going the first year they started, then I applied the second year and they had no holidays left!! You couldn’t get the codes or apply online back then. We’ve had some great holidays with the Sun but sadly have to pass up on them now as there is no way we could go during term time. 🙁 It’s amazing how they have kept the price so low though, even with the extra charges it’s still a bargain.
