20% savings throughout the summer on a Portuguese villa with private pool

Vintage Travel, specialists in villas with private pools, has announced savings of 20% throughout the summer months on Casa Mocho, an impressive property on the Eastern Algarve which made its debut in 2019.

This comfortable and welcoming home – built traditionally using local stone and timbers but carefully incorporating contemporary features and well-appointed living spaces – sleeps six in three bedrooms, two of which are en suite.

In its extensive grounds there is an impressively large swimming pool, a poolside shower, sun terraces and a covering dining area.

Nearby is the pretty white washed village of Estoi (four kms) and the sleepy market town of Sao Bras de Alportel (six kms) both of which offer a choice of several excellent restaurants.

For beach lovers, a short trip to Fuzeta (16 kms) leads to dune-backed beaches and simple quayside restaurants specialising in seafood.

As an example of reduced prices, seven nights in May now start at £960 (saving £240) or a week in peak season is priced at £2016 (a reduction of £504).

Flights and car hire can be arranged by Vintage Travel on request.

Easter Escapes for Single Travellers

Friendship Travel has home and away options for single travellers looking for an Easter break, and there’s no single supplement to pay on either of them!

For those with just the bank holiday weekend spare, a three-night package at the four-star Donnington Valley Hotel, Spa and Golf Club in leafy Berkshire starts on Good Friday and, as with all Friendship Travel breaks, is Hosted by at least one of its experienced representatives.

The modern hotel’s facilities include a superb indoor pool, gym, and wide range of health and beauty treatments in the spa, as well as an 18-hole parkland golf course. Country walks, 10-pin bowling and a fun Easter egg hunt are other options, though there is no pressure to join in and those who simply want to relax in a sociable environment can do just that.

The package, which costs £420, includes a standard double room for sole occupancy and half board. Of the three dinners, all include wine with the meal and one is a black-tie event followed by a disco. The break ends after breakfast on Easter Monday.

Single travellers looking for spring sunshine should find it on Mallorca with a seven-night holiday departing 17 April to the H10 Casa del Mar hotel. This stylish four-star is set on Santa Ponsa’s seafront promenade, just yards from the sandy beach. The hotel has not only a ground-level general pool but an infinity pool on the adult-only roof-top terrace.

This small group holiday is offered from £945 (from Stansted) for a package that includes flights, transfers, seven nights in a double room for sole occupancy, breakfast each day and five dinners with wine – enjoyed around one or two large tables – during the week. Regional options include Bristol from £892 and Manchester from £905.  Prices/availability correct at date of issue.
