Hello everyone

I’m coming to Faro in Sept, heard it’s a good time to be there

Occasion is to celebrate wife’s 30th

She loves flying and hasn’t flown a plane in life

Are there any recreational flying options around Faro where I can take her to and she can fly a small plane for 60 mins assisted with a pilot

I found some but don’t know if it’s worth the shot or not and thought I’d turn to you all and seek help, also I’m happy to drive for 90 mins out anywhere after renting a car and surprise her so we’re good for a 100km radius

We’re flying from Ireland for the weekend 4th Sept and some other bits I can use everyone’s help are mentioned below -

What’s a good stay (hotel/apartment) I can book and have a cozy stay with her?
Where’s a good bakery or shop that does nice cakes and I can reserve and pay for it?
Anything good spots for lunch/dinner with great vegetarian options? (We’re good with eggs as well - just no meat)

Anything on these things would be really helpful and if there’s anything you’d want to share I’d be happy to take the advice and guidance from the lovely people

Thanks to everyone who’d help in advance 😄

Hi all,

Myself and my wife are buying a new build in Ardán View here in Cork. We’re at the contracts stage now with move-in early 2027, and we’re fairly new to the area and honestly fairly new to this whole buying a house thing too, so I thought I’d put up a post and see who else is in the same boat as us.

Would be lovely to chat to a few of our future neighbours before we all move in, and it’d be cool to hear from anyone who’s already bought or recently moved into the estate because we’ve got no major clue on a lot of the stuff yet. Things like snagging, what to actually budget for beyond the price, kitchen and upgrade decisions, broadband, bins, management fees, all the bits nobody really tells you about.

If anyone fancies it I’m happy to add you to the WhatsApp group we’ve made for the estate so we can all compare notes as things go along. Drop a comment or a DM, would genuinely love to chat. Cheers!

Has anyone used their services/gifted it to their loved one for using the Airplane Flying Lesson for 30/60 mins?

I’m looking for reviews or customer experiences so I can book it for a loved one

Trying to book it for them as their birthday gift so putting some thought and trying to make it meaningful

Thank you everyone

We're getting a new-build sorted and it's time to figure out the kitchen. We’re going the own-supplier route rather than the standard developer kitchen.

We've already got one quote in and want to sanity-check it before committing, so looking to hear real experiences:

- Who did you use in Cork and would actually recommend them?
- Any designers to avoid?

Thank in advance to everyone who’d help! Cheers 🍻
