Where to stay on this tropical paradise?

Our villa offers a panoramic view of the ocean and towering lush
mountains, with breathtaking sunset views and star filled skies.

Just a short walk away is one of the best beaches you will ever
see. Woodlands is a secluded beach surrounded by cliffs where you
will often be the only visitors enjoying the Caribbean waters and
Montserrat's famous black sand beaches. Swim or snorkel around
the cliff to your left and find a tiny private beach only
accessible by water. This is where my husband proposed to me!

Woodlands, where our villa is located, is the most wooded area on
the island. It is lush with vegetation, palm and fruit trees and
flowers of all sorts. The vegetation and dramatic views of the
mountains create a cool breeze refreshing breeze throughout the
villa.

Three private suites, each with full bath and sitting area sleep

Slovenia overtakes France as 'Hot Spot' for Cyclists

Slovenia overtakes France as 'hot spot' for cyclistsFriday, 20
July 2012 10:41 AM Travelbrite.uk.com

More Brits are going on cycle holidays than ever before

France is not longer the top destination for cycle holidays - now
25 per cent more people choose to visit Slovenia instead.

According to new figures from Wheel2Wheel Holidays, more cyclists
are visiting Slovenia for an active holiday than ever before -
making it of their top performing destinations of the year so
far.

Steven Rittey, of Wheel2Wheel, commented: "Slovenia is Europe's
newest active outdoor playground and offers great value for money
as a holiday destination. There are few destinations which allow
you to explore the whole of a country in just over a week. In
Slovenia it's easy to see everything in a short space of time
from the countryside to the coast.

"At the moment we are currently seeing more bookings for Slovenia
than the traditional destinations such as France, Italy and
Spain. Easy access to the capital Ljubljana and its central
European location make Slovenia convenient to visit and remains
one of the better value euro countries."

On the whole, cycling holidays have been getting more popular
with the British public: almost half of UK households now own a
bike and more people than ever are using bikes as a means to get
around.

Where to stay when you come to Slovenia to play?

Newly renovated luxury 2 bedroom cottage located just outside
Bled - tourist hot spot in Slovenia. The spacious living area
includes a large open plan living room with flat screen TV, wood
burning stove, dining room and modern fully equip kitchen.
Nestled in a small valley, the cottage is surrounded on all sides
by picturesque mountain views. There is nowhere is better to
enjoy the views than on the sunny furnished deck or BBQ area
under the shade of our grape vines and various fruit trees.

Bled is minutes away by car of train and is packed with great
restaurants, bars, nightclubs, casinos, family friendly
activities, as well as a beach, and a breathtakingly stunning
lake, island and castle.

The house is walking distance to a great pub/restaurant and train
station excellent for day trips exploring Slovenia.

It is also walking distance from some of the best fly fishing in
the world, a short drive from 3 major ski areas, a golf course
and some of the best wineries in Europe.
