POOH'S PLAYHOUSE - SO NEAR THE MOUSE YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR HIM SQUEAK!

LOCATION... LOCATION... LOCATION...
Rolling Hills is located just past marker 5 on the 192 at the Formosa Gardens Estates. Established as one of the premier locations for the Orlando area, it is a small, friendly community with only 293 homes on it. Rolling Hills is only a few minutes from Disney, 10/15 to Sea World, 15/20 to Universal and 30 minutes from Orlando International Airport. Just down the road from Windsor Palms, opposite Indian Creek and half a mile up the road from Oak Island Cove, Oak Island Harbor and Emerald Isles.

This villa is in a quiet and peaceful location where you can rest away from the hustle and bustle of the theme parks, and yet in minutes you can sample everything that has made Florida the holiday and vacation centre of the world.

We are not the cheapest but we are one of the nearest! Staying at a location such as ours cuts down the time you spend in your car and gives you more time chilling out with the mouse! You can also come back at lunch for a rest and a swim in the pool -and return in time re-charged for the evening.

Alternatively you may like to visit the surrounding areas such as some of the State Parks. Within a few minutes drive you can be out in the country heading for places such as Mount Dora with it's unique charm and fabulous lakeside panoramic views. We give you information on TRIPS ON A TANKFUL to give you some ideas!

The villa itself was a great surprise, surpassing all our expectations."

"Hi Fiona, Again, many thanks for the lovely rental of your home for the week that our family spent in Florida. It was simply a perfect way for us to stay, and everyone, from the grandparents to the grandkids, truly enjoyed. Your home was great, the pool and jacuzzi perfect, and I must say that my kids really enjoyed the Pooh themed room. They even stayed in their rooms more or less at night!! even our toddler stayed in the bed fortified with guards and pillows! We enjoyed having the "extras" around, such as the books and movies and the great complete kitchen and BBQ.

If we go to Orlando again, we will definitely be looking to stay at your home again."
