WIN A WEEK IN GOA WORTH pounds 1,500


(Sunday Mirror Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)HOMES & Holidays has teamed up with Direct Holidays so one lucky reader and a friend can win a week-long holiday to Goa worth over pounds 1,500 in our great competition.

This former Portuguese colony, Goa has a very different feel from the rest of India with beautiful beaches where you can soak up the sunshine. Plus you'll be hard placed to find a warmer welcome anywhere else in the world.

New for winter 2006/7, Direct Holidays is featuring the resorts of Palolem Beach and Varca Beach in the south of Goa. Palolem Beach - also known as Paradise Beach - has a one-mile stretch of unspoilt soft white sand backed by beach shacks, cafes and bars, while the golden coastline of Varca Beach is bordered by coconut groves.



Our lucky winners will be staying seven nights at the Intercontinental Grand Resort on Palolem Beach. The hotel is set in landscaped gardens. You can relax by the pool and outdoor jacuzzi or, if you're feeling more active, you can play squash, tennis or tackle the nine-hole golf course.
