most of my friends have been, expensive but worth it was the feedback I got. Only for two or three nights max though - discounts - only in the summer and it is a bit hot then

So what and where is it? Never heard of it, myself...but you know that I don't move in expensive circles.

Border Reiver

Definely recommended but 2 nights would be enough. It isn't too bad in the summer, you just have to get up a bit earlier for some of the activities. I got up at dawn (ouch- on holiday even) to see the falcon display but it was well worth the pain.

Benson

Been there, went a few years ago. Definitely worth it. Would love to go again. Went in the start of summer and got a bit of a discount and it was still bearable outside. A lot drier in the summer in the desert and I find it is the humidity that gets to you.

Cry haddock

Definitely worth it, but mostly for the wow factor. I would say one night is enough - arrive early and leave late the next day. It is amazing. Mrs Haddock did some work out there and had to stay for a whole week - nice work if you can get it.

Thank you all for the info!

Might treat myself and the g/f for a couple of nights then! Try and escape the madness of Dubai for a few days!
