Isn't it nice when you spend time giving advice and it is completely ignored?!

Not sure someone asking for advice on a family holiday and you suggesting they leave the child at home was what was requested

In fairness I thought that was a fair enough point if a short break was being discussed, but a whole week?? We have left ours for 2 and 3 nights but wouldn't consider a whole week until they were a lot lot older i.e pretty grown up wanting to do their own thing

Have you considered leaving the baby with grandparents? That way everyone wins. Baby can stay on routine. Mum & Dad get a true break and time together without having to think about nappies/feeds. Grandparens will probably be in their element and you don't have to lug the kitchen sink in a suitcase to places far and wide. Have a think about the options before you rush in and book something here, that would just be like being at home, but without all of the things that make life easier.

thanks

but we are looking to spend quality time with the little and to have fun

i want to get away from the normal roads, tv, internet, computer and just have decent time with the little one and take advantage when he has his naps on relaxing (sleeping, reading books, magazines which i don't get the chance)
