I'm looking for suggestions for an easy beach and pretty town-based holiday with a just-turned four year old next spring. Not all inclusive - my partner is allergic to chlorine so holidays by the pool are out, and it's not really our thing anyway.
Pre-child we liked a pretty old town, hotel with a balcony overlooking the sea, plenty of restaurants and cafes, and a couple of old churches or castles to explore. Happy to spend a couple of days on the beach now we have a child, but don't want that to be the entire holiday. Previous favourite holidays were Rome, Porte de Pollenca and Malta. I would happily go back to Pollenca as I think that's the vibe we're after, but would prefer to go somewhere different.
I'm thinking maybe Greece, but where? Or south of France? Our nearest airports are Stansted and Southend. Thanks!
