09 Mar 12 - 10:40 AM (#3320461) Subject: RE: Easter 2012 Folking About in Anglesey!! From: Mr Happy For non-tenters There also seems to be a very reasonable family room deal at the hotel with prices by the room not person (from 180 quid for three nights)and some rooms have 3, 4, 5, and one with 6 beds. Add breakfast per person per day at five quid. Tricky to make these come up on the online booking system but give them a ring http://www.bullbayhotel.co.uk/ |
