Planning a holiday in July with our 4 year old daughter and my then 6 month bump.

We have been looking for AGES and no luck - can anyone help??

I'm easy - would be v. happy with a cheap-ish package holiday but husband wants something a bit nicer/posher


Ideally:-


France/Spain/Italy/Portugal - but other short flight options fine too

Nowhere where we need to hire a car - but a taxi from the airport is fine

Small but nice resort with a couple of pools and maybe a few other families around for kids to play together (we're not in English school hols - for the last time...)

Beach walking distance - and a few restaurants/cafes etc

Don't want a villa on our own


Everywhere seems to be very expensive Mark Warner type places or big high rise resorts.

Is there an in between out there??


Any advice gratefully received.


Thanks!

I quite like some of the properties on here and they seem v helpful - http://totstotravel.co.uk/

Or some of the hotels in greece or the villas with kids clubs here are lovely - http://www.simpsontravel.com/luxury-family-holidays

As mentioned before on here Mallorca def fits your bill and somewhere like Puerto Pollensa is very doable without a car - an apart hotel or something there might be more affordable?

Pefki Islands resort in rhodes is lovely. Its close enough to restaurants but not too close its noisey. Has two pools plus kids one and you can also walk less than a minute to use the pool and facilities in linda thasalia resort which is run by same people. Place is very clean and staff so friendly. They also have kids club and entertainment of an wevening. Have a look on trip advisor for reviews and also thomson website

http://www.sultanpalasdalyan.co.uk we have been here twice, first with bump then with 6 mo it is run by a British man and his wife, lovely quiet area, everything is by boat, they collect you at the airport, breakfast and evening meal (Turkish food) inc pool, regular boats into town and another thought the reed beds to the beach, lots of trips available, nice little shops/caf?s/market in the town. We did a fab trip upriver to the lake were we swam, it was great.


It isn't walking distance to the beach but it has so much to offer.

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
