Central Florida Vacations – A Blast of Culture!

Culture is not normally a strong consideration during a holiday in Central Florida. However, whilst you’re staying in one of our gorgeous vacation villas – or even staying in a local hotel - take a day away from Disney, Universal, Sea World and the other theme parks, and take a drive up to the fantastic community just North of Orlando called ‘The Villages’.

This amazing community (worth a visit in its own right), is located about 60 miles northwest of Orlando, and spans parts of three counties: Lake, Marion, and Sumter. The Villages is the creation of central Florida’s well-known Schwartz family, and continues to be run by the family today.

The Villages comprises two discrete communities – Lake Sumter Landing and Spanish Springs.  Each of these has its own Market Square with a very different ambiance, and each Square offers a host of places to dine and eat, and every evening there is free entertainment available

It is in Spanish Springs - nestled just off Spanish Springs Town Square - that you can get a dash of culture by visiting The King’s Gallery.

John and Candy Coldwell, the gallery owners will be delighted to have you stop by to stroll through the gallery and check out their wonderfully eclectic selection of artworks by various artists. Whether you enjoy ‘typical’ Florida artwork, or are attracted to Caribbean-style works – or you crave some fine art – John and Candy are guaranteed to have something within their collection that you will long to take home. They have a wealth of knowledge about their catalogue and will be pleased to help you make a selection.

They can arrange to frame your selected artwork for you, as they have a framing team on-site.

John even offers a fabulous service to residents – he will visit your home, and then make recommendations for artworks which will complement the space they occupy, and of course, each other. He will deliver and hang all their artworks as part of their service.

Call in to see John and Candy – they’ll make you very welcome.

Arguably the coolest pool guy truck on the planet?

How is this for cool?

Not for our friend Frank any ‘normal’ pick up truck…….nope, he can be spotted in some part of the Four Corners area any day of the week, in his waaay cool El Camino, working hard on his pool route.

This has got to be the pool truck to beat all pool trucks! You can bet he attracts dozens of second glances by surprised subdivision Gate security guards, customers and passers-by.

Frank’s boundless enthusiasm for his cars is matched only by his superb talents with pools!

Look out for him if you’re in the area, and give him a wave!
