Advantages: Great prices Disadvantages: End up spending too much
Last year whilst on holiday we visited the Freeport outlet centre at Hornsea, East Yorkshire.
For those of you not familiar with them it is basically a big (mainly) outdoor shopping centre with lots of brand name shops. The difference though is the price, most are 50% less than you would pay on the high street.
It wasn't well advertised, we just stumbled across it by accident, but so glad we did. On our first visit it was late in the day so we only had a chance for a quick look but decided to return later in the week, which we did. This time we arrived early morning. The children were aware of a big leisure area from our previous visit so of course that was the only place they were intersted in. So we knew we had to work this right.
There is plenty of free parking surrounding the village, with entrances dotted about. We made ...
Advantages: tasty addition to stews and cassorole Disadvantages: maybe to strong for your taste
Bay is an everygreen herb which grows like a shrub, it can be grown in open spaces or in tubs.
The flowers of the bay are yellow and it will flower in may.
The best way to get a bay plant is to buy one from a garden centre for around 99p depending on the size. I also like to get my herbs from bootsales where you can pick them up from 25p so saves money.

Advantages: Accessible, attractive, atmospheric Disadvantages: Covers too small an area
without quite the same character, and without a restaurant, though it does do an excellent breakfast. My wife and I stayed in a triple duplex room with one of our sons (extra bed upstairs) for 85? (c£68); ordinary doubles start at 68? (c£55), breakfast included.
I have also heard well of, but not personally stayed at, La Gribane, where the chambres d'hôte accommodation includes converted stables in the gardens of a villa facing the bay at the quiet end of town.
In Le Crotoy, I have stayed at: ~
~ The Hotel de la Baie, better known locally as Chez Mado after the redoubtable patronne who used to be in charge there. This is more a restaurant with rooms (there are only three - best to book well in advance) than a hotel, but the rooms are comfortable if you can get in, not expensive (68?; c£55). The restaurant is good, and excellent ...
