Hi
Chris,
Liebe
Grüße an die besten Gastgeber.
Wir
haben die 10 Tage in Eurem Appartement wie vor 9 Jahren sehr
genossen. Ihr bietet Raum für Indiviualität und Gemeinschaft. Und
Eure Gastfreundschaft ist so angenehm, dass man sich wie zu Hause
fühlen kann. Danke für die vielen schönen Kaffee-Gespräche in großer
und kleiner Runde. Integration von Nichtbehinderten in einer
Ferienanlage, die für Körperbehinderte perfekt ausgestatt ist, ist
wirklich nachahmenswert. Uns hat die Zeit beeindruckt!
Bye,
bye,
till
next time (perhaps two months !?)
Lovely greetings to all of you (Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Chris, Dimitri
and his brother, Nelly, Mary, Kumar and his wife - and every one we
have forgotten)

Hi Chris
Can't believe that this time last week
we were in the Troodos Mountains with Andreas. Thanks for another
brilliant holiday. Only one complaint - it wasn't long enough!
We'll be back for a fortnight next year. Say hi to Ali, Kate and

once again you and your family surpassed
themselves with your hospitality. the apartment was wonderful, and we
had a great time at the B B Q.It was great to know that Mel and Lee were
able to have more independence because of your lovely complex and Polis
is such a lovely place, they were made very welcome by all the cafes and
shops etc. it was also good to see Mel having a good time in the pool.
thank you for a great holiday and thanks to your mum and Nitsa( is that
the right spelling?) for taking care of us, and of course Kumar.
We will see you all again
Take
care of yourself and your lovely friendly family

great time at the irish bar,I even tried the new beach wheelchair
which seemed daunting but hey I did it.Of course the familys
hospitality is always worth a mention making you feel at home and
always there to help if anything goes wrong. We had so many laughs
with chris. All in all a top holiday highly reccomended. Di and Jen

Ook de tweede keer was het een waar
genoegen om Eva, Chris en Andreas te ontmoeten. Wat een gastvrijheid
niets is deze mensen teveel.Het is al moeilijk genoeg om met 2
rolstoelers op reis te gaan en dan ook nog iets te vinden, waar
alles wordt gedaan om het zo aangenaam en aangepast mogelijk te
maken.
De verzorging 's morgens en "s avonds
was vooraf geregeld en door haar flexibele opstelling konden we ivm
met tripjes schuiven met de tijden.Voor ons was het een paradijsje
om te relaxen en te genieten van de warmte en de geboden
mogelijkheden.

This was our first time staying at C&A in
May 2008 and it won't be our last!
We just want to say a very big thank you
to you, Chris, and to Nitsa and Andreas and a special thanks to Eva for
helping to make our stay at C&A an enjoyable one. The apartment was
great, very clean and spacious and the facilites were second to none. Nothing
was too much trouble for you guys and Eva's breakfasts (and baking) were
superb! My mum, dad & I had a great time. Superb environment for a
holiday for disabled and able bodied people!
We'll be back to Polis later on in the
year and are looking forward to seeing you all again. Good luck with
the new apartments. Say Hi to Sara too!

Once more we have to say
what a thoroughly enjoyable time we had whilst staying
at your fabulous complex.
You never cease to amaze us with the careful thought and
consideration that is put into making the holiday so
enjoyable, not just for the disabled members of the
parties, but for all concerned in the holiday, be it
other family members or carers or friends. All my
husbands needs were met once more. We could not ask for
anything else.
The family is so welcoming
and generous. One of our favourite days was one spent
with the 'TOUR GUIDE' Andreas....what an absolute star
that man is. He leaves no corner of the island
untouched,. He can tell you anything you need to know
about the flora and fauna. Dont book a tour unless its
with Andreas. He took me and my hubby Pete to places
off the beaten track that we could never have found.
Nothing is too much trouble. We love him to bits.
Eva and Nitsa, busy as
ever ensuring that all the guests are happy. The
fabulous cakes still freshly made for the guests to
enjoy on any
afternoon.
The swimming pool, as
enticing as ever, so clean and crystal clear, great care
taken to ensure all around the complex is scrupulously
clean and very well maintained. Even though there was
building work going on,
it didnt disrupt our enjoyment what so ever. We cant
wait to see the finished results of the new apartments,
just from the 'shell' at present they look like they are
going to be superb....well done Chris for all your
thoughts, determination and hard work that has gone
into making C & A Tourist Apartments the best ever
place to stay, with or without a disability
Chris (the boss)please say
hi to Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Dimitri, Chris, Andrew (especially
from Rach !!)Charoulla, Mandana, Kumar (thanks for
helping Rach with the mobile) and the most beautiful of
all, Sara. Last but not least, all the geusts that we
were so fortunate to meet whilst we were there. Due to
my husbands MS and its severity, there is no other place
on earth that I would feel safe and happy to holiday,
other than with you guys. Thanks ,
Till we meet again,
forever in our thoughts, love Dawn, Pete and Rachel

Our first stay with C & A and we were confident it would be a vast
improvement on standard holiday accommodation but it was
even better than we hoped, the ramps and bedroom and
bathroom access that are normally such a chore presented no
problems at all. In fact we did not manually have to lift
Stephen at any time over the whole holiday, as well as
taking the strain off Linda and myself it meant life was
much more comfortable for Stephen.

Dear Chris,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing first-class ‘disability friendly’ accommodation. The surroundings and apartment were wonderfully relaxing with a real family atmosphere; guests will want to return again and again to C + A Apartments, aka their new home in Cyprus! From the minute we set foot on Cyprus, all our needs were catered for. The airport transfer to and from C + A Apartments was faultless and teamed with traditional Cypriot hospitality. The cost of hiring a mobility scooter was value for money and all equipment was reliable; making my holiday a truly wonderful experience! Helena and Julia

Before coming to C&A
apartments we have had a recommendation from a distant contact. We had
also looked at the website. It sounded too good to be true. With Hugh
permanently in a wheelchair we had had many adverse experiences. But
the combination of Chris's own experiences as a wheelchair user and
Eva's welcome and genuine concern made the holiday unforgettable. Hugh
was constantly in and out of the pool using the poolside hoist and was
able to enjoy bathing in the sea when he went on the boat trip and was
lowered into the sea in the special chair suspended from the ship's
davits and was then able to swim around using a ring.

Dear Chris,
Andrew and I are always slightly
apprehensive going on holiday somwhere new. No matter what reassurances
are given, until you see the accommodation with your own eyes you cannot
judge what you are going to. We need not have worried! On arrival at
Paphos we were met by Andreas with my name on a board and transferred in
his wheelchair accessible taxi with air conditioning to the
appartments. We were delighted with our appartment. The beds were
exactly the right height for me and I was able to get around easily with
my Zimmer frame or the chair as required. We took my bed lever from
home but would not bother when we go again as they can be hired there.
The bathroom was spacious, had grab rails as well as a raised toilet
seat and a shower chair. It is one of the few bathrooms where I managed
independently.It was hot and we needed the air conditioning at night to
sleep and it also restored me to near normality after our outings. We
enjoyed our breakfasts by the pool. Eva was so hospitable, always
ofering us more. We liked Polis, it was easy to get around, not too
busy and unspoilt. We went for walks to the Beach and to Latsi, both
easily accessible. There are several good restaurants and the food was
delicious. Chris and his family made us most welcome.
We look forward to returning.

What can I say, returning to the C & A
Apartments was like returning home to family. Second time around it
was just as good. Apartment was as usual clean and very
comfortable. Weather great with plenty of swimming to cool us off.
The family atmosphere with meals around the pool in the evening
mixing with the other quests was marvelleous. Andreas' taxi service
was as reliable as ever and Eva and Nitsa's cooking wonderful.
Can't wait to return again.

Hi Chris
We have just had another wonderful holiday
at C & A apartments. You make us so welcome! We really do appreciate
staying where it really is wheelchair accessible, where we have no
problems and are able to really enjoy our stay. I really appreciate not
having to prepare breakfast and it is great to be able to enjoy
breakfast round the pool thanks to Eva! The barbecue round the pool was
good as well, a truly enjoyable evening.
As you know I really enjoy going into the
sea and thanks to you and Mike disabled people are able to do just that.
We are looking forward to our next visit.
best wishes

We had a great flight home and all is well.
Margaret and I have had a really great time with you and the family.
We have travelled extensively in the 30
years since my accident and we can both honestly say that the layout and
equipment in the apartment that we stayed in was superb and most
importantly 'hassle free'.
For the first time in my life, I have used
an electric wheelchair. I must say that it certainly opened my eyes and
also most of the people in Polis who were busy jumping out of my way!,
but seriously since Margaret was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthrtytus we
wondered how we would cope, the answer was very well.
The pool hoist was brilliant, the pool
itself was excellent and well maintained.
The whole family made us most welcome,
from our collection at the airport by Andreas to our welcome at the
apartments by Eva and the family. The restaurants in the town are
excellent and most easily accessible.
Thank you all for a wonderful holiday, we
will be back I am sure.
Please send our love and best wishes to
'The boss', we hope he makes a speedy recovery. Let us know how he is
when you can.
Cheers
Dave and Margaret Powell
Guest's Name: Therese Guest's Residence: UK Date Signed: 29th August Jayne and I have travelled to many destinations abroad from Spain to Las Vegas but this was the most hassle free trip we have ever had.We found the apartment basic but spacious with a lovely patio overlooking the pool. The bathroom was ideal and the first time we have not had to hire a shower chair. The design of the attached chair meant Jayne could actually use this one unlike the many others that have been too too difficult to manage being narrow and armless. The hoist into the pool meant easy access and onto the brilliant lilos that are supplied by Chris, in fact we loved them so much we each bought one to take home for future holidays. For non swimmers like us this provided a very enjoyable cooling siesta to escape the heatwave and relax after our lunch and beers. Polis has enogh good bars and restaurants to provide a varied choice for dining out and people watching .It was great to be able to take a 5 minute flat stroll down to the centre with none of the usual obstacles and hazards that usually accompany people in wheelchairs. We enjoyed the boat trip and although we never entered the water it was nice to see many others taking advantage of the hoist. The transfers by Andreas was another great aspect of the facilities provided to make the whole experience what it was supposed to be - a holiday. Chris and the whole family were lovely company, nothing was too much trouble and they and the other guests provided a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I'm sure we will be back. very best regards to all the family Therese and Jayne

Chris,
Fantastic transfer service, Andreas was at
Arrivals when we landed. The service takes all the stress away from
taking an electric wheelchair on holiday. I would recommend this service
to anyone - world class! In addition we hired a manual chair for Max.
Again a quality piece of equipment and excellent value for money.
Finally, the boat trip which Chris
recommended was superb - Max has difficulty walking on sand but loves
swimming in the sea. The hoist allowed him a memorable experience
swimming in the blue lagoon and one memory that will live with us all
for a long time. This family are amazing lovely people who have done so
much to enable less able people to enjoy holidays abroad.

Hi Chris,
From the moment I arrived at C & A Tourist Apartments and was greeted with a hug and kiss from the family , i knew that this holiday was going o be totally different to any holiday i had been on before. The kitchen in my apartment was better adapted for me than my kitchen at home and the bathroom was great too. I knew i could spend this holiday being as independent and safe as i would be at home. Mornings were spent with all the other guests enjoying one of Eva's fantastic breakfasts. The days were spent in an inflatable armchair in the pool and the evenings were spent with the other guests enjoying nice meals out. The whole family were very welcoming and we all ended up like one big happy family - so much so that hopefully i will be coming back next year. Kirstie xx

The facilities were second to none - for the first time ever on holiday I was able to get Bruce in and out of the shower with no problem. Chris's suggestion that we hire an electric wheelchair was just the best. It made the holiday for me as I would never have managed with the manual wheelchair in the heat. Eva's lovely breakfasts round the pool and her daughter's delicious cake were a real treat. The village of Polis is great - all the people were so very friendly, kind and helpful. All in all the holiday was perfect and we really look forward to returning before too long. Love to Chris, Andreas and Eva xxxx

Reeds vele jaren gaan Winnie (
rolstoelgebruikster) en ik, samen op reis.
Steeds op zoek, naar een toegankelijke
accomodatie, met wisselend succes.
Na een tip, gingen we dit jaar naar Polis
in Cyprus en vonden er .... een klein paradijs !
Om te beginnen,overal in en rond de
gebouwen, een hellend vlak, kamers met brede deuren, ruime aangepaste
badkamer en vanop het terras zicht op de zwemdok.
Een zwemdok met lift en rondom, hogere
ligbedden.
En overal een zee van bloemen,
citroenbomen, palmen en andere zuiderse planten.
Maar bovenal, wat een warmte! ( en daarmee
bedoel ik niet de zon die reeds van de vroege morgen scheen))
Het onthaal, de gastvrijheid, eenvoud en
hulpvaardigheid van de ganse familie, maakten, dat we ons reeds van de
eerste dag " thuis" voelden.
Een UNIEKE ervaring ! Nog nooit
meegemaakt.
Proficiat en héél veel dank , Chris, Eva,
Nitsa, Andreas and Kuma!
Hopelijk, tot een volgende keer !!

FULLERTON What can I say, from the moment Andreas met us at the airport all my worries about taking a disabled person on holiday were alaid. Elizabeth and I were able to have a normal holiday besides this all because Chris, Andreas and Eva looked after us so well. From everything from breakfast to dinner Eva looked after us like a mother. Chris helped organise any outing we wanted to go on and Andreas (God Bless Him) did all the driving, tours included with his own personal humour ( this included any toilet stops that were required. We cant wait to go back knowing that we will be so well looked after. Elizabeth (although unable to walk) managed a swim in the sea and the pool. We both went on a boat trip and a tour to winery and Pafos market with everything to see there. Hope to see our new family soon. Lots of love from Elizabeth and Denise

morning and wheeling their chairs down to enjoy the wonderful breakfast
Eva has prepared for us all, not to mention the great afternoon cakes,there
is only one sad part of the holiday and thats the leaving you all to

thank you all for making our holiday fantastic.Your hospitality ,
especially your mum cooking the breakfast for everyone who wanted it was
second to none.And afternoon tea and cake...delicious.Thank you Eva. I
was delighted that Melanie felt confident enough to wander around your
very well adapted complex.And to see her in the pool, after a little
persuasion, was brilliant.I tried to look for fault in the complex but
could not find one.And a big thanks to Andres,for taking us on the
excursions and the airport run, I think we would have stood there hours
without his help.Every one including the other guests, made us feel very
welcome, which helped us both to relax. Both Melanie and I felt we were
part of a big international family.We are so glad we met you all...We
will be back...

Chris,
a
thank you to all at the Eva Apartments, Polis, for a wonderful
week. Thanks to Eva for her welcome and hospitality that made
the stay so enjoyable. Thanks to Andreas for his helpfulness and
knowledge that enables us to enjoy and appreciate this part of
Cyprus so much. A special thanks to Chris for all that he has
achieved in and around the town in making it so accessible but
especially for of his warmth, intelligence and humour.
The Eva (C&A) Apartments are so accessible for those with mobility needs and yet also so comfortable for those of us who are partners and carers. For any item or equipment that you discover that you need, simply ask a member of the family at any time of the day, they are only too pleased to assist. The provision and quality of the facilities for those with mobility needs both at the apartments and around Polis generally are clearly the result of somebody who has seen the need from their own personal situation. Chris is quite rightly known locally as the “Wheelchair Warrior”. Polis itself is a quiet and yet substantial town within easy walking distance of nearby beaches. Within it’s centre there are a number of restaurants which provide a range and variety of menus that would still offer most holiday makers a new choice at the end of their visit. The central square offers a range of pavement bars and cafés that generate a warm relaxed atmosphere were it is easy to while away the evenings. A little further away is the beautiful wine growing region in the hills a few miles from Polis, whilst in less than an hour you can reach the vibrant resort of Paphos. This area of Cyprus has so much to offer which when coupled with the facilities and friendliness of the Eva Apartments make it a must return destination Gill & Rob

Sorry for the delay. We had a good holiday in your studio

impressed with the very high standard of accommodation and

We booked expecting it would be too
cold to swim in March/April, but hoping to find the sun and be able to
eat outside and relax after a difficult eight months. Eleni had recently
had two serious operations and nine weeks in hospital so we arrived
feeling stressed.
The web site looked fantastic, but one
is never really confident that facilities will match up to one’s own
needs. It was a huge surprise to find everything absolutely perfect for
a relaxing time. Much of the success of the holiday was also created by
the way in which guests enjoyed each other’s company. We were free to go
off alone but whenever we wanted a companion, to walk/wheel along the
scenic coast walk, or to try out a new eating-place, it seemed someone
was ready to come too. We shared bottles of wine and played cards and
swapped books and laughed endlessly and didn’t want to go home!

We had a fantastic time ,again (our 3rd visit). It is great to know we will have everything we need (especially a well adapted shower room) from the minute we arrive. The beach ramp from Polis to Latchi is a real success story - with plenty of 'watering holes' along the way!! We met some lovely people and your family were so welcoming we felt we were part of it yet again. Thankyou - hope to see you soon!Julie and Philip

Approximately six months ago, my 82 year old father who is
disabled decided that he wanted to travel abroad and gave my
husband and I the task of finding lodging with suitable
accommodations in a country that he has not previously visited.
We researched many countries and properties, however, none of
the facilities compared to what C & A had to offer. All our
needs were answered. Chris and his family provided the
equipment rentals, personalized excursions, airport transfers
and rental vehicles if needed. Our entire family was
overwhelmed by the generous hospitality we received from
Andreas, Eva, Chris, Nitsa, Chris, and Dimitri. We had such a
wonderful time getting to know everyone. We had fresh oranges
every morning. Chris introduced us to Meze at one Moustakallis
Tavern and took my son, Adam, for ice cream. My mom and Eva
shared recipes and baked a cake together. Andreas taught me how
he makes lemonade, olive oil, and capers. I enjoyed three
pieces of Nitsa's very special chocolate cake. The verdict is
still out on who makes the best cappuccino, Nitsa or Chris. My
son, Adam, made a new Cypriot friend, Dimitri. Our trip to
Cyprus was much more than expected. The memories of our
friendship will be our greatest treasure.
With Love and Thanks,
Scott, Diane, Adam, Sybil and Dave

Eva's breakfast, her speciality day by day, is fulfilling. Polis Village, people are nice & frindly , Choice of bars, restuarants, nice to have such choice in such a small area. The beach, walk way, & hard surfic along the way to Latchi, fishing Harbour , such wonderful views. The boat trip, with hoist into sea, great , also hoist into swimmingpool, all so wonderfully worked out for those indeed. The mix in the complex also work wheather disabaled or not. A place i will return to. They said never, thunder, lightning or heavy rain known in October, its happened i was there to prove it.

My parents and I really enjoyed our holiday. What made it so enjoyable
was the friendliness of you and your family, the people who were there
at the same time as us and the fact that I was able to get around the
place on my scooter with no problems! The location was perfect in that
it was away from the hussle and bussle of the restaurants and shops but
only a short walk away for when we wished to eat or shop. We much prefer
smaller apartments to big resorts. Trips were made possible with the
minibus and for once it was nice to interact with the people from the
apartments which is something we've never really experienced before. And
I have to say, your mum and dad do a fab bbq!
Hope to see you again in the near future,
from the 'wee' irish family,
Ruth, Jim and Bea

Dear Chris We really felt that we were guests of your family and that we were staying in your home. That is something that money can't buy. The small town of Polis had enough to do, but the restaurants could work on their disabled loos! The glass bottom boat was really fun and the hoist allowing Laura to swim in the sea made it a real day out for us both. It was really good to have you and your family there to help with things like car hire and "stuff". It all helped to make it a fantastic – stress free holiday for us both. I think we can safely say that we will be coming back again, and thank you. Rob and Laura

Dear Chris
and family,
These few
words to let you know that we all arrived very safely home. All tiered
but so full of emotions and very happy. You deffinately did so much to
make our stay a pure wonder and an apsolutelly unforgetable
experience.We felt at home as from the very moment Andreas picked the 12
of us up at the airport, dropping out from Switzerland. Sharring the
life of people as if we all were members of the same familly. What
touched me a lot too was to see some of our fellows make progress , go
beyond their fears ( Christopher dive into the pool from his weel-chair
, François say almost full sentences, Nelly walk on difficult and rough
ground ( the beach stones beyond the ramp)...etc...etc...! We will not
forget you and all those that we met ( Anne, Gieseppe, Dave and their
families) It was for me an oasis of love, peace and fellowship in a
world where those values are sometimes dificult to find and experience.
I would like once more to thank you all, the whole family, from the
deapest part of my heart for what you did. THANK-YOU !!!
With love
and warmest regards,
Etienne.

Jim
Robinson Having just returned from a most enjoyable, relaxing fortnight staying at C & A Apartments with Chris and his parents Eva and Andreas, I felt the need to say a few words. My husband Jim suffers from COPD (Emphysema) and needs help with washing and dressing due to shortness of breath. In the past we have always gone self-catering to the Greek Islands, but more recently found that the size (or lack of size!) of the rooms and bathrooms made it difficult for me to assist him. Whilst browsing on the Internet, Jim found Chris’ website and it looked so good we decided to book. Best decision we ever made The rooms are spacious, the bathrooms large and equipped for every disability need (and anything else you can think of is rapidly provided). As it is a family –run enterprise, we felt more like invited guests, and all the other guests at the time, with a variety of needs, were well catered for. And talking of catering – Eva’s cooking (assisted by her daughters) is second to none. We had the most delicious cakes served with coffee at the pool in the afternoon, the breakfasts were big enough to last you all day, and in the evening one could have either Andreas’ famous South African style barbeque (Braai) enhanced with more of Eva’s selection, or delicious curries and roast chicken Cyprus style The pool was great, equipped with a chair-hoist to lift those who needed it in and out of the water. Everything is wheelchair accessible, and the whole surrounding and atmosphere was one of peace and quiet.

Hi Chris,
We have not forgotten you and your parents
either!
Thanks for a lovely stay...we completed
the rest of our Cyprus visit in April 2005 without incident and by far C
& A Apts was the best accommodation we had. We are both able-bodied and
the facilities are just as excellent for us. Wonderful fish dinners are
within walking distance and Aphrodite's Baths are an easy cycle (about
10Km each way)Breakfasts by the pool are not to be missed!!!!

Hi Chris
In June 2006 we hired a wheelchair for my Dad who
has Parkinsons Disease. Although Dad is able to walk short
distances we decided that having a chair " just in case" would
let us see more of the island. Our initial email was met with a
prompt and professional response so we weren't surprised
when on our first morning in Polis the wheelchair was delivered. What we weren't expecting, however was the totally
personal and friendly service we received. The service you and
your family provide Chris is much more than hiring equipment -
you genuinely care and seem committed to ensuring that everyone
can enjoy their time in Cyprus.
We would recommend:
The boat trip - it was so refreshing to go out
with a group without worrying whether we were holding people up
or whether we could get on and off okay.
A walk along the beach between Polis and Latchi
and finally
Your service to anyone who asks (and even those
who don't!)
Kind Regards
Elaine, Arthur, Len and Margaret

Emma Fairhall What can we say…our second visit to the apartments and it really felt like returning home! Mum is so much more disabled this year than last (a stroke on top of MS is NOT funny) so returning to see everyone in Polis was easy for us, we knew exactly what to expect. Andreas was at the airport to greet us all (sorry for the late arrival Andreas) and we soon fell into the ‘it’s no problem’ way of life! Eva’s breakfasts are just as we remembered them; despite protestations of ‘I’m only having toast’ we all ate too much!! Our two week stay went by far too quickly and we made some great friends too. Charlotte’s fall into the pool will probably be best remembered thanks to Paul’s quick dive to the bottom to retrieve her (despite her bobbing up quickly with her arm bands on) and her agreement to want to move to Cyprus despite having to learn a new sandwich (language!) is likely to cause giggles across the world for a while to come! To anyone considering visiting Polis for the first time, do it! The apartments have everything you need for a peaceful holiday, all of the equipment you could ever imagine needing for someone with a disability is on hand, the weather is hot, the pool is warm, Andreas is the happiest taxi driver we’ve ever met, Eva is a wonderful cook (supported brilliantly by two daughters and a very helpful grandson) and Polis itself is more than geared up for wheelchair accessibility. Pafos is well worth a visit if you get a free day and if you can get a day in the mountains you’ll be well rewarded.Chris, Eva and Andreas, we will be back! Thank you for everything you did for us again this year, without you it just wouldn’t be the same. Love to everyone, from Emma, Paul, Charlotte, Ann, Ian, Joan and Sarah xxxxxxx

david gildner Have just finished our second successful holiday at C&A Apartments between the 17 and 31 of May . Again Chris and family made our time in Cyprus a wonderful experience. From the comfortable and totally accessible apartment to the hire of the equipment provided by Chris, in our case an electric wheelchair and a bed stick. Then of course the friendly help and advice from Chris and all his family all added up to a perfect holiday. David & Susan Gildner.

What can we say, we had another
fantastic holiday once again in such a relaxing atmosphere. All our
needs were catered for (especially Dan's appetite with Eva's
cakes!). This was our 3rd visit in 2 years and we're just so
pleased to have found such a wonderful relaxing place with such a
warm friendly atmosphere. As ever we were made to feel like one of
the family. It was also great to catch up with friends made from
our holiday last year. See you again in September, lots of love
