I'm going on holiday in October half term with my children (ages 8, 5 and 2) and my mum. We want some sun but don't want to fly long haul. Would prefer self catering (apartment or villa) but would like a pool (gated if private). Does anyone have any recommendations of locations / accommodation? I'm thinking Cyprus or Greek Islands but have no idea where to start!


Many thanks in advance

We tend to do Tenerife as it's a good balance between flying time (4hrs) and guaranteed year-round sun. Friends of ours have done Cape Verde which is cheaper but less developed.


I'd happily recommend Baobab Suites in Costa Adeje, Tenerife which are self-catering apartments but with hotel facilities (restaurant, pool, sports club, spa on site).

I once went to Corsica in Oct and although it was winding down for the winter it was still really warm / hot and absolutely beautiful. I caught the end of the Hairy Bikers latest cookery show yesterday and they were there. Have a peep on catch up and see how gorgeous it is.

      Anyone else having issues with The Gardens Surgery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks.

      Milk delivery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.

      Lexus Stolen On Melbourne Grove

      By Jojo_B · Posted

      Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo

      Another shout out for Milk & More - their app allows you to alter the order, add or subtract to it and also to schedule holiday stops without having to leave messages in bottle - so more secure. You do have to set up a direct debit with them, but I haven't had any problems with that myself. I have had one or two missed or late deliveries in several years, but not really a problem - only very occasional and caused mainly by delivery-person illness. And very much feels like an old-fashioned milk delivery. They do special seasonal offers as well. More expensive than the cheapest of the super market milk prices, but for that its at your door, fresh and no bother.
