Christmas is here but...

With the advent of Christmas, thoughts of course turn to managing the turkey roast, opening presents with suitable thanks given to the watching friends and relatives and of course enjoying good times with all concerned.
There is often a celebration of the year just had, as well as a look ahead to the coming one. Certainly a question often raised, where will next years holiday be taken and what other family gatherings are on the calendar.
It goes without saying of course, a family villa in France or Italy is an ideal base for a family reunion or party. With self catering facilities, private pool and grounds, a party staying at a villa can manage itself very nicely indeed. Compared to a hotel, there is no hindrance from hotel staff (and meal timetables), other guests sharing pools (and poaching sunloungers!) and of course a villa usually works out far cheaper.

Happy Christmas to all friends of Quality Villas.

Beat the Credit Crunch in a Quality Villa in France or Italy

The Quality Villas' blog has been a touch silent recently mainly due to our office move. As a family business we are still in Berkhamsted in leafy Hertfordshire, close to the homes of the owners, but now have purpose built quality accommodation of our own. Not quite like a luxury villa in France or Italy but pretty smart all the same! Our reservations team has especially benefited from an improved telephone system and speedier internet access, thanks to a super new server and state of the art telephone system. This will mean our response times will be even faster. We're practising with the new equipment even now!

And the phones have been busy. People have been calling wanting to book villas in France or Italy but concerned about the possible costs in this economic climate. Everyone we speak to is therefore delighted when we begin to talk about prices for 2009. For families, a villa holiday in France or Italy is still exceptional value and can cost as little as £250.00 per person per week, for a house with a private pool and maid service. These prices of course compare extremely favourably with hotel costs, especially when the villas in question are situated in locations such as Tuscany and the Cote d'Azur ... but of course the benefits of quality villa rental do not stop there.

All our villas offer "home from home" comforts such as English speaking satellite TV channels, internet access, full laundry facilities and proximity to wonderful countryside, seaside, or to interesting, peaceful or vibrant local towns and villages. Of course for many holiday makers "home from home" is great, but because they are on holiday they want something extra and special... A quality French villa holiday can provide that too, with a range of villas offering true luxury and style. Choose from traditional villas, ultra modern homes or fully staffed houses. All your vacation homes will complement and enhance your holiday choice ensuring that a great time is had by all!
