holidays & PD

Post by yoda »

Hi Everyone
I have been on PD since August 2014 and in June this year we decided to go to Kefelonia greece, because of the the advantages of having a private pool we went with a rented villa. The reason I am writing this is because of the problem with delivery of fluid etc. we found a gem through Holiday Lettings the owner is english with a greek husband he stored the fluids at his business premises and brought them to the villa ready for our arrival also he offered to take me to the designated hospital and wait with me for as long as it took he did say he would do the same for all the guests they had, obviously that is the last thing you want to happen but was very reassuring to have that backup. details are as follows: http://www.holidaylettings.co.uk the company are called Trapezaki Villa Holidays Ltd. Kefelonia or E-mailing Amanda Hopkins at [email protected] her phone no. is 302671031600 and mobile 306941641342. in case you have difficulty finding any info. the names of the villas are as follows Jasmin Lemoni Mandarin Bouganvillea Margarita (the villa we stayed in) & Violetta all these villas have private pools and are very private also Amanda lives quite close by if there are any problems she kindly brought us some of their eggs also fruit from their own trees also very important to us all on dialysis the villas were spotless they are really nice people a very central location and we wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to any one.

Baxter or your delivery company will usually arrange delivery of your stock to your destination. Just give them details of where your going.

Also make sure your insurance and EHIC is up to date.
