Only issue was that 4th bedroom in the separate shed/bach was quite a distance from the main house and hence no internet there. Teenage girls were very keen to stay there but no internet there so no go. No one used it cos of the no internet. ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [ibis budget Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Auckland-Airport.h9144904.Hotel-Information) > > [Ivory Tree Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Ivory-Tree-Game-Lodge.h5994597.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Marne La Vallée Val d'Europe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Ibis-Marne-La-Vallee-Val-DEurope.h1631445.Hotel-Information) > > [Du Lac et Du Parc Grand Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riva-Del-Garda-Hotels-Du-Lac-Et-Du-Parc-Grand-Resort.h19471.Hotel-Information) > > [Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Cordis.h8072.Hotel-Information) > > [The Roseate Reading](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-The-Roseate-Reading.h1668504.Hotel-Information) > > [Naumi Hotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Naumi-Hotel-Auckland-Airport.h10062481.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Parking in City Centre Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/City-Centre-Glasgow-Glasgow-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-n6129620-0-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Convent Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-The-Convent-Hotel.h57330689.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Auckland Wynyard Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Auckland-Wynyard-Quarter.h48652636.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Marrakech](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marrakech-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d6084756-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Igloo Hybrid - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nottingham-Hotels-Igloo-Hybrid.h14630190.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Millennium Auckland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Grand-Millennium-Auckland.h408966.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Novotel-Auckland-Airport.h4223624.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Bowness-on-Windermere](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bowness-On-Windermere-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d55505-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [4 Star Hotels in East London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/4Star-East-London-Hotels.s40-0-d6047456.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Pool in Northampton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Northampton-Hotels-Hotels-With-Pool.0-0-d9244-tHotelswithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Avani Auckland Metropolis Residences](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Avani-Auckland-Metropolis-Residences.h6374088.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Auckland Queen Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Mercure-Auckland-Queen-Street.h63852488.Hotel-Information) > > [Pensions Greece](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greece-Pensions.d67-aaPensions.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Emerald Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Emerald-Inn.h6317232.Hotel-Information) > > [SkyCity Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-SkyCity-Hotel.h40995.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Thermi (SKG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/skg/birmingham-to-thessaloniki) > > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Boston (BOS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/bos/london-to-boston) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Royal Tunbridge Wells](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Royal-Tunbridge-Wells.d179921-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Packages > [Prague Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague.d180014.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Alexandra Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandra-Park-England.d6084287.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Ciutadella de Menorca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ciutadella-De-Menorca.dx182309)
