A couple claim their disabled twins were 'screaming and distressed' when they 'found centipedes and cockroaches' in their £400-a-night Disney World hotel room.

Michael, 35, and Paul Atwal-Brice, 41, live in Barnsley, south Yorkshire, with their two sets of adopted twins Levi and Lucas, 13, and toddlers, Lance and Lotan.

The couple, who have fostered more than 20 children, hit the headlines in 2018 when they turned to TV experts in a bid to scale back their £15,000 Christmas bill.

The family have now hit out at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, claiming their £10,000 trip turned into the 'holiday from hell'.

But bosses at the resort have hit back, alleging the pair have 'exaggerated' their claims and received compensation 'numerous times'.

Ex-dancer and pantomime performer Paul and former retail manager Michael met at one of Paul's shows in Cleethorpes 2001 and are now full-time professional foster parents.

Last year the pair asked BBC's Shop Well for Less team to help them cut their £15,000 bill down to just £3,000 so they could take their brood on a dream trip to Disney World Florida.

But they claim the holiday 'turned into a nightmare' when they found cockroaches, centipedes and exposed wiring at their £400-a-night Caribbean Beach Resort hotel.

They had travelled to America with Levi and Lucas, who are are both severely autistic and have epilepsy, and require full-time care from their fathers.

The couple allegedly 'found dust and dirt on every fixture and fitting and a used condom in the bed.'

Michael told Mirror Online: ' We've purposefully booked this resort and spent a vast amount of money to make it all magical and special.

'It's supposed to be magical, once in a lifetime, but that was like a one-star bedsit. We couldn't stay in there. The boys were upset and were screaming and distressed.'

They claim they complained to the Caribbean Beach and were moved to another room which they say was dirtier, before being moved again to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort and Spa.

A spokesperson for Walt Disney World Resort said: 'This family has received compensation from us numerous times over the past five years, and they continue to return. Regarding their current visit, we believe the guest claims are exaggerated, and again took several steps to enhance their vacation.'
