Hello Barry
Thanks for all the info.
You were asking were we referred by other Londonderry folk, but, no we weren't. 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.

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 closeness to the rear access gate was also good as we used this gate frequently.
Everything about the house was very positive, the decoration, the availability of everything we needed etc. Would definately use you again.
Thanks again

We have just come back from a fantastic holiday!
The house was perfect, it had everything we could possibly need and more!!!

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.

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,

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.

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

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

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 cant yet as our children are doing GCSE and a levels next year and we dont 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 dont 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

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

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 2010
