This holiday is perfect for switching off - the idea of the wellness together with the Pilates is to relax your mind and body in a beautiful location. (more)Helen Wood
The most memorable was being taught Pilates and meditation by Ioannis Davros. (more)Frances Lawrence
I loved the whole thing. The Pilates, meditation and Chi Gung tuaght by Ionos made me feel like a new woman after the week in Pelion...the sumptuous home cooking and amiable comraderie around the square table hosted by Pip and Nick...the splendid accommodation with views across the water to mountains. There is no one stand out. It was as a delight all round.

The practical cooking activities led by Oli and ably supported by Flo were an absolute pleasure - equipment and supplies were perfect, guidance was very patient, and the results were delicious! It was fun that another mother and daughter duo made up the group and we got on like a house on fire!
Tips?
There is no hope of losing weight on this holiday - but the diet can wait! The visits and activities organised by Oli and Flo are very informative and provide real
insight... (more)Philippa Schofield

Participating in the Cuba Music Holiday through the tour operator we used was the trip of a lifetime! Learning from, working with, and performing public shows

someday. We'd also like to do another music holiday with this same company.

Great. We loved it and rated our time in Panes the best part of our month in Spain and Portugal. We even looked at the price of houses in the region! (more)Diane Norman

The scenery was so stunning but Jesus had selected an easy path so we could spend our time staring at the scenery as we walked. We then stopped for a beer at a very picturesque village. A great day! (more)Margaret Barretto

Great photography locations and excellent tuition. Great holiday, far exceeded my expectations. The photography tuition from Rob Bell was second to none. Well managed and good company. Can highly recommend. (more)Pat Kilner
Torrox is a lovely village which really gives you the sense of being in 'real' Spain.

It's a great holiday. Leave behind any preconceptions and you'd love it. The most memorable part was meeting the dance teachers. (more)Nuri Gene-Cos
The dancing was amazing, hilarious, fun and depending on how much you put into it - painful due to bad shoes! But totally worth it. The people there - I can't
describe how warm and welcoming they are. The dancers, the guides.... everybody I met in fact. (more)Britt Voll
One of the best moments was probably snorkeling in the Bay of Pigs area near Play Giron, and then of course all the salsa dancing, both in classes and in the

The location was superb with amazing views overlooking the glen. We learned fascinating traditional skills, collecting lichens and bracken fronds from the woods and making up a wide range of natural dyes, using open wood fires. We dyed fleeces and fabric, mixing our colours, which were astonishingly vibrant and ready to take on to the next step for spinning or felting. Rosie and her family were very welcoming and gave us wonderful outdoor lunches.

A great group of snowboarders and skiers with the flexibility to go to different parts of the mountain every day in search of powder (which we found)! I also enjoyed the mix of touring and free riding adjusted to the preferences of the group. Plus the chance to try out cross country skiing on the last day was great! Ending with a soak in the hot tub as the sun sets is pretty special too.

To enjoy this you'll need to be reasonably fit (as a skier at least),... (more)Rachel Kennedy
