The service works in much the same way as a Facebook Fan page, but with a host of bolt-ons for our holiday home Owners.

We launched sibluconnect in April 2010 to make it easier for holiday-home owners at our 14 parcs to communicate with their management teams and friends at other destinations. 

More than 2,200 owners are already using sibluconnect to post comments, read news from parcs, share photos, swap holidays and manage their holiday home services.

That’s an astonishing figure that proves that older web users (most of our Owners are 50 plus) are more than happy to chat online in the right circumstances.

Sibluconnect is the latest in a long-line of innovations we have launched that makes owning a holiday home with siblu so enjoyable for UK customers. It helps them to manage their holiday home from wherever they are, at any time, and helps us to respond to their requests really quickly.

Well Katy Holland does a great job of arguing the merits of a mobile home versus villa in The Independent’s travel column.

She identifies four points that can help to settle the argument – cost, friends, entertainment and freedom.

The idea of your own villa sounds dreamy, but the reality is that kids don’t do dreamy, they do running around, and playing sports, and mucking about with other kids, and making noise, and all those things that don’t quite work if you’re on your own in a villa.

And the standards of modern mobile homes are great, with en-suite facilities, powerful showers, proper ovens, comfy beds… in fact everything you need for a comfy stay.

So I’m going to stick my neck out, and say villas are okay if there’s only grown ups, but they’re a terrible option if you are travelling en famille.

These A-list celebrities were named as famous owners of multi-million pound mansions in the wonderful region of Cote d’Azur, while Le Montourey was featured as one solution for those of us who want the south of France lifestyle, but don’t earn their star studded salaries.

The feature, headlined ‘Chic and cheeful’, is a guide on how to buy a stylish home on a budget on the fashionable Cote d’Azur.

While Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have recently shelled out £35million for a 17th century chateau, siblu owners Ruth and Barrie Dixon talked about their £51,000 IRM Hacienda. They spoke of their love for the region, and how they get the chance to go for lunch in Cannes, St Tropez or Monaco.

The parc also featured in the newspaper’s ‘On the market’ roundup, which featured the very best deals in the south of France.

The Daily Mail is one the UK’s biggest selling national newspapers, with a circulation of more than 2.3million.
