I tried booking a self catering cottage yesterday for four nights starting in 10 days time. The week preceeding when we wanted to go was £329 for the week, but the week we wanted was £425 for the week. We were told we could have the four nights for £320!!
I said I thought that was a bit steep for a two person cottage and was told it was the start of Easter and its about supply and demand. I pointed out that there was little demand as it wasn't booked 9 days before a start date. They told me I could take it or leave it, so I left it.
Does anyone else thing this is an unreasonable price or is it just par for the course in the Lakes.
