Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

another for the Cliff Bay - we stayed there in October. Restaurants are good value too (not significantly more expensive than the outside ones).

They have a falconer who comes round twice a day with his lovely Harris Hawk to shoo off the pigeons....

That Harris Hawk spent some time on my balcony in October picking at our sunlounger. Stopped my quiet coffee on the balcony rather abruptly.
