  • After a good few years of reasonably excessive trips abroad, a big mortage on the horizon means raining it in for the foreseeable, so just had 5 nights in Cornwall and am ashamed I've never ventured down there before and will certinally venture that way more often now.

    Loved Falmouth, St Ives, St Mawes and Porthleven amongst others. And another great Airnbnb experience.

    For those asking about Malta in Sept, just a note that England play there on the 1st Sept, so probably a few k England fans for a week or so, which may not exactly enhance your holiday.

    And a big plus for Dubrovnik and the Montenegro coastline for those who were discussing it above - stunning!!
  • Did Sandy Balls at Easter, Centre Pacs in the May half term, couple of weeks in Chiclana, Spain in August and possibly the canaries in the October half term. Got a few weekend trips sorted, Goodwood Revival, Arras, New Romney.

    Booked Disneyland Paris for the October half term in the end, has anyone driven there?

    I drove there a few years ago, I think it took about 3 hours from Calais, I remember that there was loads of parking at the resort

    Cheers, we needed separate rooms and the only Disney place available is 15 mins from the site with no shuttle.
  • Next week to South Tyrol - in Italy just beyond the Brenner pass, but German speaking. St Martin in Passeirer, north of Merano. Not widely known on here I would suppose, but if anyone has been, and has tips...
  • off to Ibiza on Saturday morning for 7 nights.

    Good man,

    I am fortunate enough to have both the time and income to travel the world however a year is not complete for us without a week or two in Cornwall.

    We have fallen in love with North Cornwall and cannot get enough of it.
  • We go to Menorca on Saturday morning for a week.
    Kids (4+6) excited by the hotels' on site water park.

    If they are happy - we are happy.
  • 4 nights in Dudley early December...

  • Currently up in the Pyrenees and didn't realise it was so beautiful and green up here! We're about 10 mins from the Spanish border so it's a Catalan flavour up here.

    Stunning tbf. Found the most amazing restaurant yesterday called Panoramix - top notch. Jews and food. (Waitress was pretty hot too :-))

    good mate of mine owns a cottage in Porthleven and we've been quite a few times, absolutely love the place and surrounding areas - kids love Flambards and we love the harbour and pubs.

    Senen Cove beach (nr Lands End) is a must visit place

    love North Cornwall and have been probably eight of the last ten years. Been very lucky in hiring some really nice cottages off the net. In my opinion Polzeath is the best beach in the south west. However for a change we are off to South Devon for two weeks this year. Looking forward to discovering different places instead of visiting old favourites.

    Going to Cape Verde in November for my missus B'day! 3rd time going there and wasn't really about going there again but now its paid off and work is gathering pace & stress I am looking forward to it! The islands motto is ''no stress'' after all...

    Talking of Cornwall though went to St.Ives this year for my birthday and bloody loved it! Lands End, St.Michaels mount was brilliant! Would go back happily!

    Underestimated British breaks but with St.Ives and climbing/walking Snowdon! So much to offer.

    Because I hope for some tips, but don't expect it.

    Why ask?

    Plenty of beautiful places to go in this country but you cannot rely on the weather.
