Re: Transporting car from Algarve to NorthEast England ? Recommendations ?

I have a T3 in the O Pomar Condo in Cabanas, which costs me €2500 per year. Service charges are seriously expensive, but it does have great facilities. I guess you just get what you pay for

Re: PT car in UK

Re: Portugal possibilities

Based on your personal circumstances, I would suggest that, (as mentioned by Green Shutters), you take a look at the Eastern Algarve. The terrain is relatively flat, so no hills to climb just to get...

Re: Hoppa transfers

Haven’t used Blue Label myself, but I recently switched from Yellowfish to Algarserra for my Faro - Tavira transfers. Price dropped from €90 to €74 with equally good service.
