Peak season holiday savings

1st July 2011 Print

A fantastic £400 saving is available at the end of July on a week’s rental of Ca’n Segui - a superb five bedroom (all with aircon), three bathroom Mallorcan farmhouse sleeping 10, situated in the north of the island - with Vintage Travel. 

With this offer, the revised cost of the week commencing 30 July is £2595.  This does not include return UK flights and car hire, but these can be arranged on request.

Enjoying fabulous views of the Tramuntana Mountains – yet just a few minutes’ walk from Pollença town centre – the property has its own private, shaped pool and sun terraces and is within easy reach of sandy coves and beaches as well as a nine-hole golf course.  In addition - for those who enjoy walking - there are several well marked trails in the nearby Tramuntana foothills.  vintagetravel.co.uk

Cornish Cottages is highlighting a selection of properties this peak season, several which are reduced in price.  These include, for example, The Shire Stalls - a lovely barn conversion (sleeping four) situated a mile from the beautiful beach at Holywell Bay and with a choice of beaches including Perranporth, Crantock and the famous Fistral beach just a short car journey away.

The property, which now costs £545 for seven nights from 30 July (saving £60), is an ideal choice for families who enjoy walking as there are footpaths virtually from the door offering miles of beautiful rural and coastal rambling.  Holywell Bay can be reached on foot in around 20 minutes.

Inside it’s beautifully furnished and comes complete with sitting room, fully-equipped kitchen and two bedrooms.  Outside there is a private enclosed garden with BBQ and picnic bench.  cornishcottagesonline.com

Pop over to Jersey this August and enjoy a three-night break for just £199 per person, a saving of £84.

This special twin share price applies throughout the month – and during the spectacular Battle of the Flowers Festival on the 11 and 12 August – and includes return Fastcat crossing from Weymouth, transfers and accommodation with breakfast at the three-star Mayfair Hotel in St Helier.  Children, two-11 years and sharing with two adults, pay £129 each. For those who wish to extend their stay, additional nights cost £40 per person, per night.

Facilities at the hotel include indoor pool, Jacuzzi, steam room and fully-equipped gym, along with sun terrace, coffee shop, bar and restaurant.  modernhotels.com
