Hey there,

Yes, there%26#39;s a very effective heating system. I stayed at the ranch a few years back in at this time of year. It%26#39;s a great time to visit disney. not many crowds etc. are they still running the bonfire night fireworks? we managed to get in bonfire night and christmas in 4 days!!!!!

Hope this helps?

Hi Jackev

Just come back from DLP Davy Crockett about 12 days ago and while the temperature was about 4-5 degrees C outside (ie, bloody cold), the heating in the lodges was very good - almost tropical in fact.

The toilet is the only room that doesn%26#39;t seem to be heated though.

Hope this helps

Hi Jackev

There%26#39;s no such thing as doing Disney on a budget, but it%26#39;s possible to make a few savings.......

The breakfasts are pretty sufficient to get you through to early afternoon, and we smuggled a few sarnies/crisps/biscuits/fruit in bags. You do get bags searched as you%26#39;re going in, but they don%26#39;t seem too bothered about seeing food in there. You%26#39;ll probably be OK as you%26#39;ll no doubt have a changing bag and under-trolley storage on the pushchair/pram with the little one.

We did check the prices of the restaurants in Disney Village, but were looking at about 15-30 euros per person for a meal, and ended up doing McDonalds a couple of times as it ended up cheaper, especially as we knew it%26#39;d be eaten by the kids, and I hate paying for food that they don%26#39;t like.

There%26#39;s a huge supermarket (Auchan) in the Val d%26#39;Europe retail park (signposted Serris over the A4 motorway) and we stocked up on bread, cheese, meat and a few microwave meals (Spaghetti, Lasagne, etc. which were surprisingly good considering) and it they%26#39;ve got a great wine range as well. They also speak pretty good English there, but I had to use my GCSE French a few times.

Any other questions, give me a shout.

Agent Bauer.
