Re: Holiday inspiration

Pine Cliffs in Portugal is always recommended to me. Martinal is okay but very windy beach and freezing sea and our children didn't like it at all. Sami covers off everything which is why it's so popular. The Sami beach club and Sami hotel are the best priced and also close to all the amenities or l...

Re: Loft extension - Shaftesbury Estate

I've just completed a project like this on a standard mid terrace house. The loft conversion that you're describing cost me approx 35k all in and to lower the ceilings you might need to factor 8-10k.
