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.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway.
