Set in a holiday camp in the late 1950s, Lynda Page’s saga is full of hilarious anecdotes and heartwarming adventures amongst the holidaymakers and staff. Sure to appeal to fans of the hit musical Dreamboats and Petticoats.
When Rhonda Fleming runs away from home the last place she expects to end up is at a Jolly’s holiday camp. But a chance encounter with a chalet maid at the train station leads Rhonnie to Mablethorpe on a cold winter’s day and her life changes for ever.
Thrown in at the deep end working for the boss’s wife, Rhonnie discovers there’s never a dull moment at Jolly’s – particularly with staff like Dan around. From the beauty contest by the pool to jiving in the Paradise dance hall and from the rollercoaster at the fair to sitting on a moonlit beach, the holidaymakers are guaranteed to have the time of their lives. But when the boss’s son reappears nothing can prepare Rhonnie for what lies ahead…
