Ok, we are aiming for our first family holiday for 3 years and after holidaying in UK up to now want some warmth..... 3 boys (14, 14 and 10), DH and myselft
I went to Menorca last year and loved it so could try that again, but where we might stay although it has a pool hasn't much else on without getting in a car for a bit.
There's a possibility of staying in an apartment in Puerto Banus (Menorra Beach I think) which looks like it might be better for children. Less need for a car by the look of it.
The problem of course is money - we want a week (4-11 July), and ideally to fly from Bristol or Birmingham - we could go to PB in May half term when the apt is cheaper but flights make it really pricy. Even being quite strict and getting a good deal on the two possibles (friends of friends houses....) we're looking at at least £1500.
Can all you well travelled people help me with ideas (not just countries but actual resorts - is Croatia worth looking at). We'd prefer apartment or villa, but hotels not a complete no no as long as they're not huge and am I being unrealistic budget wise - £2000 sounds like a huge amount of money, I, like everyone, wants to spend as little as possible.....! I've looked at camping/mobile home hols, but they don't look that much cheaper - but again don't want to rule it out, and ferries are not easy to get to either (live near mid Wales border. HELP PLEASE!
