Hi
My husband dave and myself dawn (both 44yrs old) are looking for someone to chat with on here who is living in rhodes. We are hoping to move in next few years and have lots of questiions. We are looking in the ixia area to live and wondered what it was like off season? is there anything to do or does the place become a ghost town? that is just one question.
How easy is it to fly from rhodes airport to gatwick during the winter months? also looking to rent for a year before we purchase a home. Would like to know if anyone knows best place to look at for rentals long term? and what roughly are the prices?

Dawn

Hi Dawn,

Have you looked at the Greece country forum? You might find somebody there to chat to.

Regards

Michelle

Hi! Moved you here where you have a better chance of finding people living in Rhodes, or living in Greece that know something about Rhodes.

Hi,
My daughter has just moved to Afandou (south of Rhodes Town) and has found rental prices quite cheap compared to British ones - their 2 bed flat is about 280 euro pm. As far as I know, getting to Gatwick is direct in Winter, it's Birmingham you have to go via Athens! It's a beautiful place to live but the inhabitants work VERY hard during the summer - 7 days a week usually - as most places close down after October.
