Up to £150 off per week or up to £75 off per short break for boating holidays taking place on select dates between 26th February 2009 and 15th July 2009.
Established in 1908, Blakes Holiday Boating have been providing quality boating holidays amidst the unspoilt landscapes of Britain, Ireland and Europe, for over 100 years. With our wealth of knowledge and experience gathered over the years we’ve created some new discounts and savings for 2009 boating holidays.
On Friday 6th February 2009 staff from our Earby office were given the chance to name a new line of discounts due to launch on our Blakes Holiday Boating brand later this month offering savings of up to £150 per week or up to £75 per short break on participating boats.
The competition proved to be very popular with more than 220 discount name suggestions submitted. Out of the many entries our “expert” panel of judges chose Blakes Boating Bonanza, entered by Lesley Millman (Accounting Services Manager).
Keep a look out for the launch of the Blakes Boating Bonanza discounts on Blakes Holiday Boating and you’ll find savings on participating boats of up to £150 off per week or up to £75 off per short break for holidays taking place on select dates between 26th February 2009 and 15th July 2009.
Terms and Conditions apply.

Despite 83% of people wanting a holiday abroad this year, the unpredictable exchange rate is putting many off booking. But – GOOD NEWS – cottages4you are pleased to announce that we’ve taken action to help protect our holidaymakers from the uncertainty of travelling abroad.
Our ‘No Currency Surcharge’ means prices for 2009 European holidays WILL NOT be affected by further fluctuations in the exchange rate.
Geoff Cowley, managing director at cottages4you, said:
While people still want a European break we understand that, in the current volatile climate, holidaymakers won’t want to pay a penny more than they need to. Because we took action last year by purchasing our Euro requirement, we can safeguard our customers against any further exchange rate fluctuations in 2009. Those booking with us for European holidays this year can rest safe in the knowledge their accommodation price will not be affected by changes in the exchange rate, as it might with some other companies or by booking direct with the owner.
Self catering holidays offer fantastic value for money. For example, with cottages4you, prices for a French villa start at £6 per person per night. In addition, as a large travel company, we are ATOL and ABTA bonded, adhering to strict codes of conduct to provide high levels of customer service and ensuring full protection for customers’ package holidays and money – support which you may not necessarily receive if booking direct with some smaller, independent companies.
With over 15,000 properties across Europe, there is plenty of choice. Spain is currently proving popular and there is still availability in France, Italy, Portugal and Ireland over the May Spring break and Summer holidays.
So why not get searching at cottages4you.co.uk for your overseas holiday this year.
