Subject: For the attention of Vicky Goode
Dear Ms Goode,
My wife and I have just returned home to Mallorca from touring the Algarve, travelling from Faro to Sagres, to Villa Real de San Antonio,back to Faro, spending 21 nights in 18 hotels.
I would just like to inform you that the Hotel Garbe was, by far, the most outstanding and the best value that we encountered on our trip.
It certainly lives up to its claims that we read about every week in the " Euro Weekly ".
Once again many thanks for making that part of our holiday so enjoyable.
Yours faithfully, and kind regards,
Frank and Viv Melville.

Harp Evening - A success
From the Portugal News - www.the-news.net
A musical journey at the Hotel Garbe
John Dalton is a man with the world at his fingertips. Musically fluent in three different types of harp, he took listeners through an enthralling journey of the history of the harp - the first evening of its kind in the Algarve.
During a delicious Indian dinner in the Hotel Garbe's Raj restaurant, John Dalton, or 'Harp John', as he is better known, took those fortunate enough to have booked their seats, on a mystical voyage complete with background music.
From the early origins of the harp buried sometime in ancient Egyptian myths he recounted a colourful and vivid journey that kept listeners on the edge of their seats. Through the courts of royalty to Celtic folklore, the talented musician portrayed in detail how the harp has been both a symbol of beauty and wealth, as well as an object of desire and passion.
Many were the comments of how unexpectedly engrossing the evening had been, made even more magical with the spellbinding sounds he produced on two of his harps.
It was Harp John's first visit to the Algarve, but if the reactions of those present are to go by, it will certainly not be his last.

Winter Workships - Creative Writing

Why attend a writing workshop?
Ask anyone who enjoys writing and they will tell you that as soon as they see one advertised they have their name down.
They are certain in the knowledge that either the person holding the event or someone attending it will share something that will be useful to their skills.
Novices will benefit the most and those who come out of sheer curiosity to find out what creative writing is all about come away wondering why they never went before.
Being able to express your innermost feelings, emotions and even fantasies in this creative form can open up whole new vistas in anybody’s life.
It can be cathartic and soothing to ones innermost being just to be able to write down dreams or memories before they fade away and are lost forever.
Join Jenny Grainer on a practical and fun course of creative writing and widen your imaginative skills.
Write down the history of your family or try children’s stories – is there a novel in you or some practical articles on a subject you know well?
There is a market for all subjects – come and discover yours.
Each workshop cost 65 Euros per person and consists of two half day sessions
Don't miss it - for more information or to book tel: 282 320260 or send e-mail to mailto:%20info@hotelgarbe.com
