After such a terrible summer I suddenly can't face the long winter ahead without some sunshine so I am trying to talk the OH into some winter sun.


Does anyone have any reccomendations of child friendly places to go with a then 2 1/2 yo and and 6 mo, I was thinking the Canaries are about as far as we would want to go, but am open to other ideas.


Has anyone any suggestions of quieter places to go in the Canaries away from the masses? And any accomodation reccomendations?


Thanks in advance

Hi

We lived in Tenerife for 5 years and I had both kids there. It is wonderful for kids. easy, safe, shallow beaches,loads of pedestrian areas, everyone very child friendly, great ice cream...


we still have our house there and rent it out for holiday lets. it's off the beaten track in a little village but only 20 mins to the beach.


i'll send you a pm with details...

Just in case other people are in need of some winter sun..... you can have a look at our place in Tenerife at

We had 5 very happy years there and never went near "the masses". I'm very happy to give tips on local things to do via PM.

Canela I may be onto you about your place, perhaps for oct/nov when our youngest is bigger and I can face the airport with all three of ours. How easy is it to get there from airport with three young children?


All our friends used to love tuscany or Amalfi Coast, but generally rave about Tenerife now they are kiddied-up.

In a hire car or taxi, the airport is only 15 minutes away from our place.


It's true - it is a really good place for families. I think because you're guaranteed sun, but not tooooo much, the beaches are really easy with shallow water, and for the more adventurous there are plenty of places to explore - pine forests, volcanoes, whale watching etc.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
