A programme offering both hotels and self-catering units in resorts, plus villa developments.

Where

Crete, Corfu, Algarve, Mallorca and Minorca, plus Carinthia in Austria (under the Austria Travel 01708 22 2000).

Style

Villas and apartments plus properties in country villages where car hire is required. Almost all have access to pools and the vast majority are more attractive than average. A number have extra beds to accommodate an additional child. There are specific recommendations for families such as Pollenca Countryside Villas on Mallorca.

Season

Year round on Mallorca and the Algarve with heating in some properties, payable extra.

Facilities

Cots are available for hire, charged locally and costs varying according to destination but for example £10 per item per week, and only some properties have access to high chairs. Babysitting may be available but is not generally.

Extras

If there is a local country club free membership may be available for sports facilities. In some cases the clubs organise children's activities.

Sample Price

A two-bedroom apartment on Mallorca would be £518 per adult for a week in peak season per adult. Under 20s are offered a 50% reduction if they are in addition to the number of adults calculated for a property. On this property the expected number of adults is three, so the reduction would apply to just one child. In all events under 12s receive a 10% reduction on brochure prices.
