Lefkas

The island of Lefkas is full of unspoilt sandy  beaches, rocky coves offering crystal clear waters,  pine forests and vineyards, dense vegetation, and its hilltop villages which have almost not changed in the last century.  It is the fourth largest of the Ionian Islands and the name comes from the Greek word 'leukos' (pronounced lefkos) meaning 'white', a reference to the stunning south-facing white cliffs of the island.  Locally, the island is called Lefkada.  Its unique character is a blend of natural beauty, Ionian culture, and the unstinting hospitality of its people

St-Ives

From Stunning Contemporary family holiday homes, semi-detached or detached beach houses, to newly refurbished, self catering holiday homes, secluded holiday bungalows and luxury high specification holiday Apartments or holiday cottages in Cornwall, or Kernow as it is known in Cornish, are blessed with striking wild terrain, both across it’s wild moorland and its varied, dramatic coastline littered with charming fishing and mining villages. Many of the self catering holiday cottages in Cornwall or self catering holidays are in cozy traditional stone houses, with open fire places and views over the coast. Cornwall has a rich heritage of vibrant folk music, and many unusual traditions remain, like the Furry Dance and Mummers Plays. Also, Cornwall’s native sports of hurling and Cornish wrestling are great spectator sports, and can be seen at St Ives or St Columb Major.

One of Cornwall’s best assets is the coast. There are many holiday cottages in Cornwall in easy access of the sea and beaches, which can become crowded in summer, although a little exploring will undoubtedly land you in a tiny, deserted cove beach. The sailing and surfing here are notable, and rock climbing on coastal cliffs is becoming a popular activity.

Normandy

Normandy is a place of soft runny cheese and churned butter, where broad fields and dry-stone farmhouses perch on the edge of chalk-white cliffs, and the salty tang of the sea is in the air.  Spread along the Channel coastline between Brittany and the far reaches of northeast France, Normandy is an enticing blend of old and new with wide beaches along the "Flower Coast" attracting families and those commemorating the D-Day landings of 1944
