Executive Lodge features list - what you get will vary slightly from villa to villa. One thing I missed from the other villa types was the Radio. Though last time I stayed in an Exec (June) I noticed that a Clock Radio had been put in the master bedrooom - so maybe I wasn't the only one who missed having a radio.

It would help to know your villa number... that will then indicate location plus villa type.

Thanks good plan I will find out. I think our accomodation may well be executive rather than executive lodge which may explain it though.

The fridge is quite small. In a 4-Bed villa you get two fridges but villas with less bedrooms only have one. There is no freezer, just a small icebox on the fridge. So don't plan to bring more than 3 or 4 pre-made dishes from home.
Ovens are improved a bit on previous years but still not great - think it must be gas pressure related. So aim to do most cooking via the hob and/or microwave. Take your favourite cooking utensils, as you often don't get many supplied. I strongly suggest taking a good chopping knife if you plan to do quite a bit of self catering, as knife quality/sharpness is somewhat variable.

We're onl in a three bed. Couldn't get hold of my parents so I'll just iron stuff here I think. Hope to not do that much cooking and hadn't thouht of bringing pre cooked stuff that would've been sensible though. Thanks for all your help, I am really looking forward to it! I need a break and it looks like a good combination of fresh air and nice food!
