Cheap Lanzarote honeymoon help!

I've not really had holidays abroad so I have no clue how to get good deals. We're getting married on 16th September this year and would like a cheap but nice holiday to Lanzarote afterwards. My parents have given me £1k as a wedding present. We intend to spend as little as possible of this and use the rest for savings. But we still want a nice honeymoon!

Or if anyone has any other ideas for a nice weather beach holiday with somewhere to explore, we'll be interested!

Which websites are good to look on? Is it better to wait for a last minute deal? Or find something and book asap?

We would like self catering so we can eat out a fair bit or cook romantic meals ourselves. We would like to be near a beach, with pool access too. And we want car hire.

What's the best way to get cheap car hire?



Thanks, lots of questions I know!

    Thanks for the reply. Also, forgot to add, flying from either a midlands or london airport would be best. Getting married in the midlands but live down near London.
