trousers Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 The Trousers household are contemplating a villa holiday this year. Somewhere warm and sunny with a private pool. Last 2 weeks in August earmarked. Does anyone know anyone who knows someone who has such a place to rent out or can recommend a property they've stayed at before? Preference is for renting privately from the owner as the likes of James Villas no doubt add a whopping commission onto their prices. Cheers for any leads or suggestions. Don't have a particular country in mind yet...just at the net casting stage at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmel Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 Thorughly recommended. Your budget will get you a great holiday (And a decent maid ) Look at Portugal or Spain, I will dig out a couple we have stayed in and Pm you. Only one bad experience, when the pool was surrounded by wasps!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithd Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 http://www.jamesvillas.co.uk/corfu/ststefanos/ftelias-4993/ stayed here last year bloody marvelous it was too. James Villas may be a bit more in the pocket but they appear to do a good job selecting good places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pancake Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 James Villas may be a bit more in the pocket but they appear to do a good job selecting good places. Plus they are **** hot sorting out any (and I mean ANY) issues you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdearlove Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 http://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk/p734521 we stayed here at easter a couple of years ago and had a great time. Its pretty quiet but has everything you need on the complex. You can also go and use the other Polaris world property facilities. The golf course is nice but will be very hot in Aug.

Minsk Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 You could check out www.9flats.com Just choose a destination and find a place that suits. Personally, I've never used it before but know some people who have and they had no complaints. I'm thinking of giving it a go this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightysaints Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 Go to Bulgaria on the Black sea. We have been 4 years on the trot. Great food and drink. Very cheap. Stunning Villas with pool for less than a grand for 2 weeks. Pm me for more details http://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/Bulgaria/BU344.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View From The Top Posted 6 January, 2012 Share Posted 6 January, 2012 We always rent villas or farms, depending on where we go and wouldn't dream of doing owt else but we drive instead of flying. Croatia and Montenegro offer excellent value IHMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
