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.

    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. They're clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
