Kids go free to Sardinia

For those quick-off-the-mark, Holiday Options is offering one free child place – worth £675 – on seven-night holidays at the four-star family-friendly Dune Village at Badesi Mare in Sardinia.

To qualify for this special deal – applicable for departures on 15 or 22 August - youngsters must be under eight years of age and share a room with two full-fare paying passengers at the Resort’s Le Palme Hotel.

Adults pay £1274 each (twin share) inclusive of return flights from Gatwick, Manchester, Edinburgh or Leeds/Bradford, transfers and half-board accommodation, plus wine at dinner.

The resort – home to five hotels next to an 8km sandy beach – is a ‘child’s paradise’ and offers a wealth of options including a baby club for little ones aged between 18 months and three years, fun and games at the mini club for youngsters aged under eight and ‘Fantasy Village’ – an open-air play area set among pines and dunes, with a supervised pool.

Other facilities for all the family include four swimming pools, tennis, dive centre, free hire of windsurfers and dancing school, along with a choice of bars and restaurants.
