    I need accom for 15 nights from 31/8/08 for 2 people(mother and daughter) week 1, then a third person(grandmother) joining week 2.

    I Can get a 1 bed apt(2 *) for about £750. Trying to get it down. Dont mind area(except Calas and C'an Pic). Not sure if I should try and get 2 lots of accom.

    Any one advise where I should look. I have spent hours and my head is spinning.

    Lastly will I get something cheaper if i dont book until later in the week?

    Thanks
