We have set our prices for 2011 using Ryanair philosophy. I don’t mean we charge extra for beds, use of TV etc. although it’s not a bad idea!
What we have done is set lower or the same price as last year and then when the weeks start to book we will possibly raise prices for the busy weeks.
Another change is..
“Finca Arboleda is perfect for a quiet relaxing break.To help us achieve this for all guests we do not accept children in the Villa or Apartment during the peak summer months.”
We hope this will prove popular with guests.

Came across the website “I write like” http://iwl.me/ the idea being you paste some text you’ve written and it “Checks which famous writer you write like with this statistical analysis tool, which analyzes your word choice and writing style and compares them with those of the famous writers.”
So I pasted the 1st 2 paragraphs of our home page and it came back with H.P.Lovecraft, Wikipedia tells me…
Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) was an American author of horror, fantasy, and science fiction, especially the sub-genre known as weird fiction….oh err!

I expect most people saw it, it was like watching any team managed by Sam Alardyce kick Arsenal around the pitch. Anyway the good guys won and Spain partied!

The Villa is now the proud owner of 2 new leather sofas, very comfortable and a new king size bed. It’s so good we may have trouble getting people to leave!

The Stables are now fully booked for the summer but there are still a few weeks available in the apartment. 14 Aug – 2 Sept looks like a perfect break for a couple.
Best news though is that the Plasma will be staying after yesterdays results!

I doubt many of you listen to Talk Sport. I think it’s aimed at White Van drivers and it’s so over the top that it makes me chuckle. The highlights are phone-ins and quiz time.
This week they were playing “Know the score” not maths, this is talk sport remember but a quiz about theme music from films.
Play music….the contestant has no idea “Can you give me a clue”
Presenter “We’re in a continent watching the world cup, when it’s over we will leave for for home, we will be..?”
Contestant “Zulu?”
