Hi Barry & Jenny
Firstly, a very big thank you to you both for renting your
beautiful Townhouse to us. We had a fantastic holiday and the house
was just perfect.
The situation of the house, opp the communal pool was great and the

availability of everything we needed etc. Would definately use you

Hello Barry
Thanks for all the info.
You were asking were we referred by other Londonderry folk, but, no
we werent. Actually, it was your write up on the website that did
it for me - that, and all the great reviews you were given on the
site too! On the website you sounded like you really made an effort
for your house guests, and so far with us that has been true too.
The cheque is in the post.
Many thanks,
Julie Limavady. Co. Londonderry. N.I. 27th November 2008.
ON HER RETURN JULIE HAS WRITTEN:-
Hello Barry
Happy New Year to you and your family.
Apologies for only writing now, but I havent had internet access
for a while. Thanks very much for the cheque.
I wanted to let you know that my brother (Stephen) and I had a
lovely holiday at La Torre. Your house is fantastic (like home from
home) and we would have liked to have stayed longer! The first few
days it was very windy which made it quite cold to play golf but at
least it was dry. Of course towards the end of the week, just
before we had to leave, the sun came out and we were in t-shirts.
We played La Torre twice and Hacienda once. Both were very nice
courses, and quiet which meant that we didnt have to rush round.
Thanks for the golf form - it saved us a bit of money. We visited
Murcia one day and drove to La Manga another, just to see a bit of
the area. We also visited the Mar Menor resort, as friends of ours
have bought property there. It was very different to La Torre with
all the colourful buildings. Stephen would have been happy enough
to relax at your house but I got him out and about!!
If were ever going back that way, well definitely get in touch to
find out if your house is available. I may even organise a girly
golf trip!!
Many thanks,
Julie Limavady. N. Ireland.
-------------------------------------------------------
Dear Barry and Jenny,
We have just come back from a fantastic holiday!
The house was perfect, it had everything we could possibly need and
more!!!
The location for us with two children was great with the pool so
close! We sat on the roof terrace sipping Sangria and could still
keep an eye on them playing in the pool!!!
Weather was sunny,hot with one day of rain in the two weeks
Vanessa was very friendly and helpful.
Looking forward to next year! Many thanks. Julie and Trevor.

Hello Barry yes we are back safe and sound and thank you the house
was great. The only improvement would be on the weather which
neither of us could have changed. John was happy in the Irish bar
on a night complete with his cigar, they all loved the golf. Thank
you again .
Regards from Susan, John ,Stephanie and Philip.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Barry,
We had a great time and your house was excellent! good standard and
well equipped.
Do you have 2 weeks available in september if not we would like to
book the same 2 weeks in 2009
Alex & Pearl Hawick, Borders. Scotland.

Barry was a wonderful and polite person to deal with, extremely
helpful with every aspect even helping with the best flight deals
and car hire.
The Town house was beautiful and we booked twice that year as we
were both that impressed with the townhouse.
The house itself was amazing with all the mod cons you could ask
for and all furniture was that of 100% luxury and top quality.
We both felt that Barrys house was in the best loaction on the
complex as it was right overlooking the largest pool on the resort,
also the tennis courts were right outside (barry even has tennis
rackets for use) and the golf par is also just outside to the left.
The resort is amazing for a lovely peacefull holiday with all
beautiful beaches and places of interest just a short drive away.
Eveything you can ask for is on this resort and by far Barrys
townhouse is beyond superb.
Like i say we booked in june last year and also september and will
certainly be booking again this year without a doubt.
Thanks again Barry for giving us the chance to take advantage of
such a lovely place.

ANDY AND HEATHER HAVE RE BOOKED FOR 12 DAYS IN SEPTEMBER 2009.

Hi Barry,
Thank you for a fantastic break.
The house was very impressive and we were very comfortable.
We will certainly recommend your service and accommodation to
everybody.
We will go again soon!
All the very best,

Hi Barry!
Thankyou for returning the cheque which arrived this morning.
We both throroughly enjoyed our holiday in no small part due to the
resort and the house.
La Torre itself has been beautifully landscaped and meticulously
maintained. Indeed standing in the middle of the golf course by the
lake on a sunny evening most of my Spanish family found it hard to
believe they were in Murcia - it seemed more like Florida!
The house itself is nicely designed and furnished very comfortably
in excellent taste. We found it a delight to return to at the end
of a long days touring.
I WOULD GO SO FAR AS TO SAY THAT IT IS THE NICEST HOUSE WE HAVE
RENTED IN MANY YEARS.
All in all a very enjoyable experience which lived up to and indeed
surpassed the original description.
Many Thanks,
Philip Moloney. Surrey. 6th May 2009

Hi, Barry
Our holiday was fantastic, the weather was beautiful, we managed to
all fit in your house without too much organising!
Your house was lovely and as described, the position being very
good for us as we spent most of our time around the pool which the
children loved and played tennis a fair bit too!
I did move your breakables out of harms way when we arrived and
placed them back in position before we left, thought it better to
be safe than sorry with little fingers around!
We did tell vanessa about the zip on one of the cots being broken
which she said she would email you about as this is how we found
it, we managed to push it close up to the wall so we didnt need to
bother her with getting another one sorted (seeing as you had
kindly paid for the extra one yourself)
We would love to go and stay again hopefully in september (after
the children have gone back so the flights will be cheaper!) so
perhaps you could let us have any dates that you have available and
we can check flights etc.
Thanks again for letting all of us stay in your lovely house.
Kind Regards
Rebecca 8th May 2009. Derbyshire.

Dear Barry
Fantastic holiday thankyou. The Resort and your townhouse were
perfect. The facilities of the resort were great ie Golf course
superb restaurants and swimming pools I think theres around 20 on
the resort and the free tennis on your doorstep >The weather was
marvellous not a cloud in the sky for 2 weeks and the rooftop
terrace was used everyday. You should be very proud of your holiday
home and most importantly the resort is finished unlike many of the
others where work seems to have stopped due to the reccession. The
cost of your townhouse is very very reasonable at £325 a week even
for just the 2 of us whereas theres plenty of room for 4 people
comfortably making it a very cheap 5 star holiday. Would reccommend
El Valle course for a change superb high desert course cost of 30
euros after 3pm same as La Torre and just 15 mins up road .Also
must mention the great beaches at La Kanazaries 20 mins away and
the very welcoming sea breezes in the heatwave. Could go on and on
but you have probably heard it all before .Thanks for your personal
service advice and your present for my 60th. Very much appreciated.
Will not hesitate in contacting you again for a simply great stay
in sunny spain

A really big thank you for all your help,regarding our holiday.
Well where do I start? Your house is fabulous..
and lovely and clean,a credit to you both on your decor and
fixtures etc....we did`nt want to come home!!
Its such a lovely complex..and every one so friendly and helpful .
And the weather was perfect..not a drop of rain to be seen
anywhere?
Vanessa and her husband were very helpful and kind.
We found plenty to do..both on and off the complex,in and around
Murcia..and the sea and beaches at Mar Menor
where fabulous.
From myself and my family a very big thank you to you both.

Barry and Jenny
Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful home. The house was
spotless with all mod cons, so handy with kids but I think the most
important aspect of this house is its wonderful position on La
Torre. It looks over a lovely pool, which was never crowded. A
wonderful 1st floor balcony, gives great privacy for sunbathing and
you can keep careful eye on the kids in the pool. La Torre is a
very relaxing resort and we look forward to when we can return.
Barry is a great owner, full of local knowledge and always there
for any queries.
Very Best wishes from
Margaret, David, Jack and Sinead. Londonderry Northern Ireland.
Speak soon Barry, Best Wishes and thanks to Jenny

Barry,
We had an excellent holiday and were most impressed with everything
regarding the house, location and complex which was much larger
with more going on than we expected.
We would love to book again but can't yet as our children are doing
GCSE and a levels next year and we don't know the dates for exams
etc. As soon as have they key dates we will be in touch to check
availability.
Improvements None,everything you need for a holiday was there
and don't believe you have to do anything.
Thank you once again for all your updates and information prior to
the holiday, it was very much appreciated and would happily act as
a reference for your villa if requested.

Hello Barry,
Just a quick note to say thanks for all the arrangements at La
Torre.
The golf arrangements in particular worked extremely well, no
problems at all, all bookings and pre-payments confirmed and 3 very
enjoyable rounds of golf completed.
Rita made herself known on day 1 and was very helpful, providing
the girls with directions to a nearby shopping mall
whilst we were golfing and also provided some restaurant
recommendations.
With average temperatures of 25/26C at mid day and half a day of
cloud amidst pure sun there were certainly no complaints about the
weather either.
What a shame we had to spoil it all by coming home :-))))
Once again, many thanks for your outstanding help.
Peter Russell. 30th October 2009.

Well, what can I say, we had a wonderful holiday!!! Your townhouse
provided everything we needed to sit back, relax and watch the
world go by!! The house is beautifully decorated, clean and very
comfortable. Your keyholder Rita,and David who provided our airport
transfers, were very friendly and helpful. We hired a car for 5
days and thoroughly enjoyed exploring the resorts around Murcia,
which proved easy due to clear sign posting. The polaris world
supermarket was great and had everything we needed. Having a
fabulous pool directly opposite was smashing!!! The weather was
very hot and sunny. Thankyou for a great week Barry and you take
care.
Kind regards Chris and Wendy Eastwood. xx July 2011

Dear Barry,
Thank you for all your help and guidance, it was much appreciated.
We have had a lovely holiday and loved the resort. I must say that
your house is the nicest that we have ever stayed in.
Thanks again.

Hi Barry
Just a quick line to firstly say a big thank you from myself and my
family for the way you have made our recent holiday easy going from
my first contact with you via various emails and telephone calls,
we thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at your home in la Torr,
which was exactly as described in your website and which was a big
influence for us to decide to book your property, it was nice to be
in an area / resort in Spain which is completed, clean and up and
running with more than one could ask for.
IE Golf, Supermarket, Restaurants and various bars and beaches not
too far away, we felt the whole resort gave you a safety feel
factor on evenings / day times maybe because we knew and saw the
presence of security which was about, the house and pool was 1st
class, and I was impressed with how many times the pool was cleaned
whilst we stayed, and the regularly checks to make sure only
visitors / residents were using them, I will be telling my family
and Friends of your property and do hope we will be able to use it
again in the future.
I hope also that Rita informed you that we left your home in a
respectable condition as we first found it on our arrival.
Once again many thanks and kind regards
Darren 11th August 2011.

Hi Barry
Jake and i had a wonderful relaxing holiday in your clean and comfy
town house.
Jake got great use out of the pool which was situated so that i
could keep him in my view the whole time, which gave me peace of
mind
.
Everything we needed was on the site and everyone there was so
friendly. We didn't want to come home! We definitely want to return
sometime in the not too distant future and would wholeheartedly
recommend it to others. bye for now.

Hi Barry,
Yes we had a wonderful week. Your house is just perfect and
spotlessly clean. Everything was great about it especially the
proximity of the pool as well as the use of towels and beach
towels. Everyone was so friendly. The whole resort is a pure
delight and it was kept immaculately.
I walked to the shop and back every day for a newspaper and
anything that we needed and that gave me a good workout before I
got down to the business of taking in some of the beautiful
sunshine, which was almost constant for the whole week. We used the
top balcony a lot and were in the pool whenever there was a need to
cool down.
I can't think of anything that would improve the house because
everything was there. We used the microwave and the washing machine
but just hand washed our dishes.
This holiday was certainly worth waiting for and I think you will
be hearing from us again. Now that my children are grown up we are
not restricted to July/August. What's it like in June as we quite
often take a holiday then too?
Anyway Barry, thanks again for the use of your house and ALL your
help and understanding especially over the volcanic ash affair. I'm
amazed at how you and your friends out there seem to have this all
so organised. It's wonderful and such a help to the likes of us who
were visiting for the first time.
Regards,
Sheena. September 2011

mandatory stopover for golf players.
