Villa news, what's on, things to do and travel tips


Brittany is located in the extreme north west of France and it is really big, so large in fact that independentist Bretons have for some time been campaigning for a referendum like the one held in Scotland recently as they feel actual self governance would be appropriate.Most holidaymakers have next to no interest in such weighty matters, they are far more concerned with the big decision which is "do we go for the north coast or the south". The administrative capital of Brittany, Rennes is in the middle, it tends to be bypassed.The north of...

Bordeaux is one of the most popular and visited cities of France after Paris, Lyon and Nice, here is what you can expect to see and do on a day visit.Given its status as the wine capital of France it is no surprise that the local Bordelaise folk have a refined pallet for their food and drink. Consequently there are a large number of gastronomic restaurants in Bordeaux, so it is well worth eating out whilst you are there as you can experience some of the best food and wine France has to offer. There are literally thousands of restaurants to choose from...

The islands of Croatia are legion and offer a quite unique holiday experience, the two main ones are Brac and Hvar, the question is, which one to choose?As far as travelling to Brac and Hvar is concerned there is little to choose between the two as the ferry from Split to Supertar on Brac takes just short of an hour whilst the boat connection from Split to Hvar takes is a little further but is still only an hour and twenty minutes journey time.One of the big swing factors for Brac is the Zlatni Rat beach which is unusually beautiful and sandy, it...

Greece is the cradle of western European civilisation and has a history complemented by legends which is second to none. Geographically it is unusual too as it has a large mainland which fragments as you go south, with a vast peninsula and numerous islands, large and small and is flanked by three seas, furthermore it is close to Europe and Africa. So the question many legitimately ask when it comes to Greece is where do I begin? Well to an extent, generally speaking it depends where you are at in life, if you are young and free, a romantic couple, a...

Infinity and beyond to any parent with young children immediately brings up images of buzz lightyear and his fellow toy friends but for villa holidays it is something else; a blue water blend with the sea to the horizon.It is an image which whenever you come across it staying in holiday villas in France, Spain, Greece or even Saint Barths in the Caribbean the visual effect never ceases to have an effect on you and you find you don't want to leave. A view of the sea and an open horizon has something else to offer, an open perspective.Put a swimming...

Thought about renting a villa with a heated pool? The children might thank you for it!Just the idea of being able to wake up in the morning and take a quick splosh in the swimming pool before a shower and breakfast is enough for many of us to push the boat out and rent a villa with a pool for next years holiday.But what if that inviting looking pool holds a chill which will have you jumping out of it as fast as you got in?By and large if you and your family are staying in a holiday villa with a swimming pool just about anywhere in Europe south of the...

Anyone for tennis? There is a lot to think about in life and getting organised for future events is often hard to do. I'm going to try and help you focus on one of them.Tennis is a sport which has dominated my family life and my father in particular was a real fanatic, playing at least four times a week right up to the age of 80 and my brother aged 70 was boasting only last week of winning his latest match in Cape Town S.A. where he now lives. My experience is that it is a game which all the family can enjoy and it doesn't really matter what...

Villa in Spain for 2015, there is far more than just sun, sea and sangria.For many it is the first choice destination, others hesitate, perhaps because they don't realise how much more Spain has to offer.This is what Spain has in spades:1 Spain is one of the best served short haul flight destinations in Europe with numerous regional airport options. In less than three hours you are there. Car hire is also very reasonable and easy to organise so your journey is straightforward and when you step off the plane you can be sure it will be nice and...

Are you thinking about taking a villa holiday in Italy next summer? Well if you are it surely makes sense. Here are three good reasons why:1 Northern Italy is within range for those who like to take their car on holiday and that means you can go to Tuscany which is simply one of the most beautiful and interesting regions in the world. Or you can fly, even as far as Sicily which is under three hours flying time of London, with plenty of low cost regional options.2 The Italian countryside is so pretty, combined with warm sunshine a gorgeous...

As the children settle into school once again and adults clear the decks of summer and pile into accumulated work this is the time when many of us turn our thoughts to next years holiday and first and foremost which country to go to. Your first choice should be France, here's why.1 France is very easy to get to by car, train or airplane and travelling costs are reasonable. You can easily tailor your trip to your needs as the choice is so varied.2 The regional choice and variety in France is greater than any other European country so you...

Cycling is becoming an increasingly popular holiday pastime in France as equipment evolves along with dedicated cycle tracks, hire shops, tourist information and general enthusiasm. I have had a number of cycling experiences in the south of France recently which helped me realise quite how many people are electing to enjoy this simple pleasure on holiday.I'm a late developer when it comes to cycling and it was actually just after my divorce seven years ago, when I was feeling rather down that a good friend of mine called from the bike shop in...
