Re: O' Barradas
We are longtime fans of O'Barrada, having introduced several friends to the restaurant. It came as something of a disappointment , therefore, to have what we and our friends would best describe as a very expensive and distinctly average meal there a couple of weeks ago. 3 of our party had the fish o...

Beware N125 east of Guia
It took me the best part of 2 hours to get home to Carvoeiro from Faro airporton the N125 2 days ago due to the incredible level and frequency of road works between Almancil and Guia. There are about 4 new roundabouts being put in, as well as general road repairs and modifications. I think I counted...

Re: Boa Vista area
The reality is that it is natural for people to 'big-up' their own areas. They choose to live there after all.
Boa Vista is not an area I would choose to live in, but the only way for you to make a considered decision is go and visit the area for yourself, and make your own mind up.

Walk Monday March 28th March Benagil-Marinia
This is a circular walk from Benagil through the wooded glades to Marinia Bay, and then back along the clifftops to Benagil. This is a slightly shorter walk than usual, but promises some of the most spectacular clifftop views along the Algarve coastline. There are some small scrambles along the clif...

Re: Walk Thursday 25 February : Montes de Cima
Hi Geoff,
Julia and I arrive back this weekend, so will be up for the walk on Thursday, probably along with our friend Sarah.
We'll be staying for lunch.
Love to Sue x

Re: Routes down through France
Thanks Roy.
Do you go via Paris to Vendome or stay to the west? My inclination is to avoid Paris.
Anybody else got any suggestions?

Re: Holiday Lettings
Re-read what I said Licy.... I said that if the client pays Holiday lettings the booking fee, not the advertiser, the charge levied to the client on top of the rental price, in most instances is enough to deter the client from proceeding with the booking. THEREFORE....if you are wanting to let via H...
