Debbie is a teacher. She is married with three children. She would like to go somewhere where her children have plenty to do. She’d also like to go out to a restaurant one evening alone with her husband.
Frances doesn’t have anyone to go on holiday with, so she’d like to meet people while she’s on holiday. She likes art and dislikes crowds.
Ben and his friends enjoy water sports. They want to find a place to stay near the beach. They don’t have much money, so they’d prefer to cook for themselves to keep costs down.
Dan is planning to spend his holiday with his wife, his parents and his sister’s family. They would like peace and quiet, so they don’t want to be near lots of other noisy families.
Kerry is getting married soon, so she and her girlfriends want to spend a weekend by the sea. They plan to stay out late and get up late. They want a convenient location as they don’t have their own transport.
