Great late deals in the school holidays

Although the summer school holidays are almost upon us, even more families have left it to the last minute to book this year because of worries over the economy.

As a result there have been reports of a surge in demand at the eleventh hour. But if you haven't booked yet there's no need to panic... there's still plenty of availability and a bit of careful searching on the internet could throw up a good deal.

For example, Thomas Cook has a bargain B&B week in Kusadasi, Turkey, costing £869 for a family of three, including flights from Birmingham on August 3 (www.thomascook.com, 0844 412 5970).

If you want to join forces with another family which guarantees the kids will have playmates, Solo Sicily (www.solosicily.com, 020 7193 0158) has some big reductions on its larger villas. Throughout August, Casa Etna, which sleeps 12, costs £4,780 per week (a saving of £530). Flights and car hire not included.

A break in Venice doesn't have to break the bank if you go camping - and the children will love the excitement of being outdoors. A week in an Espace tent at the Ca'Savio campsite costs just £455 for two adults and up to four children, including ferry crossing on August 2 with Venue Holidays (www.venueholidays.co.uk, 01233 629950).

Fancy Portugal? The family can all relax on the beautiful beaches of the Algarve, where a week roomonly at the four-star Estrela do Vao apartments in Faro costs £495pp including Gatwick flights on August 21 (based on two adults and two kids sharing) through BA Holidays (www.ba.com/faro, 0844 4930787).

There's still plenty on offer here at home, too.

Under-11s go free on an HF Holiday (www.hfholidays.co.uk, 0845 470 7558) in the Lake District throughout August. The price of £549 per adult (kids over 11 pay £325) includes fullboard at the Monk Coniston Country House, walks and activities.

For an active break in South Wales, pack the surfboards and head to the spectacular Gower coast near Swansea for a week at Abercastle Mill, which sleeps 10. A reduction of £183 means a week from August 6 or 13 now costs £1,650 through Coastal Cottages (www.coastalcottages.co.uk, 01437 772760).
