Does anyone fancy looking for a last minute holiday for me?

It can be anywhere between the 22nd July - 2 August. Just a week, one adult one baby under 2. Flying from any London airport. Not turkey or Egypt. Pool or beach is fine.

Happy to book package or flights/accommodation separate!

We booked same time last week for today Grin. Try Italy - Sicily or Sardinia via booking.com. You should get a good last minute deal. We got 5 star at 25% discount. Enjoy!!

Was that separate? So flight and hotel individually?

Thanks for reply

What's your budget and what sort of place do you like?
Take a look at Ryanair/Easy Jet flights to Lanzarote and these apartments

About £800 max, not sure if that's doable though!

Nearly doable

I'd go to Greece, partly coz I love it but also because it's cheap to eat there.

Corfu flights seem to be cheapest @ around £200 each (26th-2nd) (no bags), then maybe Anmos Bay hotel in Agios Gordios @ £473.

Oh, what about Croatia? Looks like you can get to Split for around £150 each.
I've not been but only heard good reports, and again, eating out would be inexpensive.

Ag Gordios in Cofu is lovely...went there when my 2 were little. Lovely sandy beach.

On ThomasCook.com I've found several hols in budget, eg:
Poseidon Apartments, Greece, Kefalonia, Skala,near beach and resort centre but no pool.

Pelagos Apartments, also Skala, nice pool but 1 km from resort centre.

Eriva Apartments, Greece, Corfu, Acharavi, has a pool and near beach.

All have good trip advisor ratings and are in family-friendly resorts.

Several on Thomson too, eg: Hotel Bel Air, Nidra,Lefkada B&B,pool, near beach, inc transfer and luggae £619

Roda in Corfu is perfect for families and has a lovely gently shelving sandy beach. Try Elizabeth, Melissa or Vslentinos for bargain studios/apartments or Ninos on the beach which is on the sea front (no beach) but has lots of comfy seating/big bean bags etc and shade round the pool which would be good for baby. I don't mind having a look for you!
