I am looking for a hotel/villa - at least 3* for 1 week for 2 adults and 2 children (2 and 5) flying from a London airport or Southend?
We can go on Sat 16th July or at a push Friday 15th July at night.
The budget is £1500 any chance of getting anything.
Would like Portugal or Turkey, but anywhere would be acceptable for this budget. Somewhere where there isnt too many louts though, maybe a bit secluded but not too difficult to get around, would consider hiring a car if necessary. Would prefer somehwere with a spa nearby maybe!
I know I am asking for a lot, but if you dont ask you dont get!
