Title: Aug holiday villa
Post by: Phillip on February 25, 2020, 16:21.

Hello all
We are looking for a 3 bed villa for min 2 weeks in August with private pool.
I have tried AHV and OP Group and Holiday lettings
If by a long shot anyone knows of one could you please let me know?
(One year I will book early!)
Thanks in advance.

I think that privately hired holiday homes are going to be big business this year, who is going to book a hotel knowing that their family could be held against their will in quarantine if there's a suspected Corona virus victim, on the other hand you won't have that problem if you rent a villa.

Hi

Are Airlines going to charge passengers extra for taking a "face mask" on broad?  It will be classed as extra luggage I expect.

Good point about the corona flu.
I had a quick look on air bnb after your suggestion thanks, I will have a proper look later.
I sadly think we will have to start to look back up the coast javea / denia. Lovey places we visited there for over 10 years.... but to drive after the flight!....sorry 1st world problems!!
I have however found a great one. Front line arenals del sol 4 bed pool Ect At the bargain price of ...............£14000. I thought they accidentally added a 0 so it would of been a bargain. So I spoke to them and no that’s the price!
( it’s now down to £12000) .

It’s ether some big tax scam going on. Or they have been sitting in the sun to long?
I think this villa in August per week would be about £2k ??? But what do I know.

If you rent one of the seafront houses at Aldeburgh in Suffolk the going rate for some of them is £1200 a night, they do sleep about eight people though.

Yes no doubt, I bet it’s a lovely part of the world l.  if it this was a front line villa in Marbella with 5 star restaurants, golf courses and casinos you could understand ( maybe)
But gran Alacant with the culinary delights of darbys chip shop and the top entertainment of mr bojangles ???
 I don’t think this is a £1000 a night villa. 🙂
Ps I love fish and chips and mr bojanagles just not £1000 a night love!🙁
