To be honest there isn't a great deal other than other hotels and apartments near to the hotel, certainly didn't see a motorbike hire place.

my daughter is still in a cot. I have booked a one bedroom apartment and I was wondering if a cot will fit in the bedroom. I know the lounge area is big,

Yes the rooms are big enough.

last year are 2 year old had them and are 7 year old it was the worse time ever for us no sleep had to take kid to hospital because she was crying so much.i just let her watch teletubbies alltime and gave her calpol to keep her temp down.rub vitamin e cream on the spots aswell aslong as the skins not broken.once spots are healed then your childs not infectious.its not worth worrying about it what happens will happen if you worry about it or not.look at this way your child will be ok by time u go on hols even if u did get it it wouldnt totally ruin your hols, but if ur kid had it on hols u would have to be in hotel room with them all hols cos they wouldnt wana go out in sun and u,d be nurseing them alltime.would be harder to look after your young child than yourself.i went on loadsa websites when kids had them looking for best things to do

Dont worry about the chickenpox. I spoke to my brother who is a doctor. Firstly, the sun will help dry up the remaining scabs on your son and will do him no harm at all, and secondly, I have never had chickenpox, but both my children have and obviously I am in very close proximity to them but I never got them!!! Think positive, if you had a mild dose as a kid there is only a v.v. slim chance of you getting them. Enjoy your holiday and pack some calamine lotion just in case. I am flying out on the 8th and cant wait. Start getting excited !!!!!! I know I am !

I fly out on Thursday for 2 weeks from Edinburgh. I am English but married a scotsman, so if you see a lone female watching the england games in the hotel bar, that will be me. And if you see a guy and his son wearing Italy, Germany, Argentina or Brazil tops, that will be my other half and my son!!!! I might manage to sneak in an England towel into my suitcase tho!!!!!!!!

claire i will watch out for you, there are 11 of us going wearing england or barnsley tops, we will arrive about lunch time on the 8th, see you soon.
