Why don't you list all your properties on your website?
Two reasons. The first is that our total portfolio (over 1000 properties) is constantly changing and we don't want to show off properties that are only available for a few months a year or about to be sold. Secondly, we don't think the best way for you to choose your holiday accommodation is not to wade through thousands of sets of details trying to make sense of photos and descriptions. We know the properties so email or call us and let us do the work.

What happens when we arrive at the property?
This varies depending on the location but in most cases our local representatives will meet you at the property and check that you are settled in. We can also arrange to collect you at the airport and strongly advise this as the most hassle free way to arrive at your new destination - even if you want a hire car it is usually cheaper to get it delivered to your holiday home just after you arrive.

Are linen/towels provided?
All our properties are fully equipped and beds will be made when you arrive and bath towels will also be provided although beach/pool towels sometimes are not provided.

Are there babies/childrens facilities?
We can usually provide cots and high chairs and babysitting can be arranged in advance, but many of our villas and apartments are not child safe and you need to discuss your requirements with us.

Other special needs?
There is growing awareness of the needs for people with disabilities and restricted mobility so do ask. Also remember to check on accessibility - good views often mean lots of steps…

How long Has Fleewinter been going?
Fleewinter was established in 2003 and is in its fifth year

When do I have to pay?
We require a deposit (usually 20-50%) to secure all bookings and no booking is guaranteed until the deposit is received. The balance is due before you set off, usually 4 weeks prior to departure.

How do I know my deposit is safe?
Fleewinter is a member of the ABTOT (http://www.abtot.com) and all client funds are fully insured. For more information on how this works give the ABTOT a call (0845 4504 618) or look at their website.

What is your cancellation policy?
No monies are refundable as they are passed on to the owners of our properties. We insist that you take out travel insurance and if you do this with us immediately after booking you will get cover for many cancellation situations.

Am I protected against currency fluctuation?
If you do buy in sterling the price is guaranteed and will not change even if the local currency fluctuates although occasionally we do make special arrangement to fix the rate to the local currency

Will you help with flights?
Usually clients arrange their own flights but we are always willing to help and can arrange flights if required. We have an ATOL licence so if required can construct your holiday as a fully bonded package for most destinations

Who owns Fleewinter?
Fleewinter is owned by the people that run it. There are no banks, venture capitalists, or other shareholders to satisfy.

Can you help purchase properties?
We are not estate agents but obviously know the property market very well and will be happy to offer advice and put you in touch who good local agents - the unique aspect of our advice is that we'll be able to give you rental forecasts and no estate agent will provide that. We also have a few development projects in selected locations where we think there is a gap in the market and we are able to get a good rental return for us and our investors - see http://www.fleewinter.co.uk/investmentproperties.phpfor more info.

Any jobs going?
We are looking to expand as fast as we can whilst still maintain our high standards of service and if you think you can help give us a call - it is an exciting and very satisfying area to work in - we love it anyway.
