cheap, cheerful,friendly & rundown.

I booked southport as a last minute break for my family before the kids went back to school and only paid cheap for 3 nights. We booked the popular apartment and it was very basic and very dirty the skirting boards and window sills thickly layered with dust but couldnt grumble for what we uad paid for it £99. after a good bleaching from top . to bottom we were quite happy. The southport site is eztremely rundown and needs a real good vamp to bring it into the year 2012. The activities were fab and the kids loved them although again the swimming pool is so outdated and could do with up to date slides and activities adding but still the kids had a great time in the pools and played for hours in them. The pubs and kids club were brilliant and could not fault them and the entertainment was well erm entertaining. The meals provided from the resteraunt were very good. But the first night of our stay we ate at the take away fish shop on site and i would NOT recomend anyone eat there it was shockinly discussting. The food was vile we should have known by the state of the place it was filthy and i dnt know how they hage not been shut down. The staff and blue coats were lovely friendly and couldnt do enough for us and were brillant woth our 3 kids. Would i come back again yes i would cause for the price you dnt expect it to be a perfect 5 **** place. And overall we there for the kids and they loved ot.
