My girlfriend and I are looking for a relaxing European (or slightly further a field if bargains are to be had) get away for a few days in April and I’m looking for ideas on where to go.
What I would like:
Quiet and secluded
Idyllic beautiful scenery
Local culture
Good local and reasonably priced food
Simple bars with good wine/ cold beer
My ideal day will involved breakfast with a few people milling around
A stroll to a quite beach for some relaxing in the sun and sea
and afternoon bike ride
Simple restaurant overlooking the sea with maybe 20 other guests
Repeat as necessary till sufficiently relaxed.
I want to avoid like the plague:
Strips of cheesy bars
Anything that attracts anything remotely like a stag or hen party
Crowds of people sitting on rows of plastic furniture eating ‘English Breakfast’ from ‘Joe’s English Pub’
I was looking at Malta but saw a few videos on youtube and was really under whelmed by what I saw. We are running to a tight budget so the likes of the Maldives although very appealing are completely out of the question.
I’m 26 and my girlfriend older but I’m more Radio 4 than club 18-30….
Any help and ideas much appreciated.
Cala san vicente in Majorca.
do a search for villas ca’an botana there.
Hire a car and have a drive up through the montains one day to soller, where you can catch the train to Palma.
or
have a drive to formenter lighthouse.
