That'll be great, thanks. We're looking at reasonably priced overnight accommodation such as Formula 1 or Première Classe or the equivalent, just to keep the costs down. I don't want the wife to think I'll be enjoying myself...
We're going for my birthday so we pushed the boat out a little, having said that the place we chose was cheaper than many of the town centre options and gets lots of 5-star reviews. Check out Casa Grande do Bachao. It's just outside Santiago up a little track in the woods (so I'm guessing no probs to park a Seven safely). If you remind me in November I'll tell you whether it was any good! Our second choice price-wise would have been one of the AirBnB rooms, but parking might be an issue. (Plus I personally have issues with AirBnB's crazy security policies).
