As children, holidays fill our minds - memories of tastes, of smells - of days longer, and sunnier, and more complete than any other.

Yet as parents, we know that planning is all, that recommendation counts for much, and that there is nothing, but nothing, quite so miserable as a failed family holiday.

So Haslemere Travel's experience can be invaluable, for we know just where to find that delicate balance - days of interest and excitement for the children - evenings of relaxation, perhaps even romance, for the parents.
