north and south

Hi,

We stayed just outside St Florent (Farinole) in Sept 07, for two weeks and LOVED everything about the holiday.We are hoping to go back in June this year, for one week in the same place as last, but are looking for some suggestions for a place down in the south of the island. We are a family of four, ( incl 1yr %26amp; 4yr old) We loved the atmosphere of St Florent...we heard it is a LOT busier earlier in the season.

Any ideas???

You haven%26#39;t had a reply yet so I thought I would bump it up for you. If you like St. Florent, they you will adore Bonifacio. Wonderful beaches nearby and not too busy in June, but busy enough because it is a port and attracts a lot of day trippers. An amazing citadel and lots of narrow streets and character.

Porto Vecchio is also a convenient and very pleasant town, similar in some ways to St. Florent, with the citadel town and the marina. Good access also to the interior.

These are just a couple of suggestions if places I am familiar with, but there are many others. June can be hot down south - just a point to remember with the baby.

Thanks...sounds good.must book something very soon..there might be something else you can help me with..we are off to Dublin on friday( me and the 2 kids)do you know if it%26#39;s ok to have two kids in a TAXI, without carseats?We are meeting up with husband at the hotel and will be using buses the rest of the weekend.Also, any suggestions of nice,family frendily resturants, we are staying on the Stillorgan Rd(sorry this if off topic)

I am sorry I can%26#39;t recommend any restaurants in Stillorgan, but in the centre of Dublin there are loads of them. For a family I recommend the Boxty House in Temple Bar. The Thunder Road Cafe is also very popular.

I am not sure about taxis, but as far as I know it is still Ok. Suggest you post on the Dublin forum. They are a very friendly and helpful lot there.
