    Looking for ideas for a family holiday location.

    Mrs HBH like to sit by pool reading a book. I don’t.

    Tried Saalbach and it pee’d it down for a week (2 years ago)……was going to give it another go next year.

    Would somewhere like Sierra Nevada be a better bet?

    Anyone else juggled with this and come up trumps?

    Fuengirola? – beach holidays a plenty and you can hook up with Sierra Cycling for uplifted access to some good mountain biking.

    Wife likes to relax by a pool. I like to actually do something. Neilson is perfect.

    Probably should have mentioned the two littluns (12 and 11 – girls)…..and needs to be ‘ahem’ affordable…..

    Fuen – looks a little far from Sierra Nevada…..

    Then what sir is after is a Neilson holiday booked through the voyage prive website. Only come up every now and then but jump on one when you can. A week in the Adakoy club, Turkey this high season with BA flights out and all meals minus two evenings for £600 per adult.

    It is but doubt you’ll find a pool and something/anything for the kids to do up in the hills! The transfers alone would be a nightmare with/for the kids and possibly take up too much space for any biking company who usually cater for bikers and their bikes 💡
    Booking a ‘Costa holiday and a few days with Alan and his guides would be a plan. I have done this twice. You don’t need to stay in Fueng, anywhere along the Costa then get the train down to Fuenga. I just hired a bike. Another time I went up to Alora from Benalmadena. Train to Malaga then another up to Alora. That firm no longer exists though.
    Try Madiera & Freeridemadiera, did that a couple of months ago. Relaxed riding with van uplifts.
    I bike, MrsT does pool/book/coffee/cake etc 😉

    We did a First Choice Holiday Village, in Turkey a few years ago.
    Despite our worst fears it was actually very good.
    Kids loved it.

    Plenty of tempting looking hills all around…
