Hi Sue, thanks very much for taking the time to reply with good advice, we take on board what you say re the '3 year rental', and especially the vide info. We plan to go over to the area in a couple of weeks and will search through as you said local papers and adverts in local shops. If anyone out there knows of anyone who has any other information or knows of any private lets please get in touch. All advice, good and bad is welcome. Thanks again, Sue
