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.

      The long empty site at the top of Lordship Lane by the Library is now a cute little bar and restaurant -  Victus and Bibo.  We had a few beers there on Saturday night and it was very welcoming.    Not noticed this when passed today - so used to it being  closed. When the original restaurant (Moulin) closed down, the new owners said they were going to have a new restaurant after modernising the premises. This was around 10 years ago!.

      Derelict Grove Tavern

      Not sure why air quality came into discussion on this thread.  There are a few houses on the opposite side of the road closish to the South Circ (they all have longish front gardens).  The low level blocks of flats are set a fair way from the roads (LL and Dulwich Common).  A few other houses are on the opposite side of the road going towards Forest Hill.  It's not a densely populated area.  As said, pollutant emissions from motor vehicles have reduced due to tougher standards, for nitrogen oxides particularly since the VW cheating scandal with test procedures now far closer to the real world and can no longer be got round. The Mayor should also be congratulated for extending the ULEZ.  People tend to think about the outer boroughs, but previously the boundary was within the North and South Circs so any old vehicle could use these roads. Anyway, just pointing out.  Not that material to  the Grove Tavern thread.  You could have similar concerns about air pollution for any place on the south Circ including parks, and other recreational facilities which can be found along Dulwich common.
