I guess the best place to start then is fairly close to a decent airport!!! We started with that too, cos my husband commutes. So find the best, cheapest airports that service your families area in the UK and work outwards, possbily towards the coast and see what you come up with! We found Malaga had excellent links with Gatwick and the flights are cheap, the coast was more expensive, so we came in land a bit. We needed to be fairly near a good international school for the kids, we wanted to be near modern facilities, we didnt want to be in the middle of expatshire.... you kinda keep ticking and crossing boxes til you narrow it down enough to visit an area!! After that its pot luck!
Top tip; Dont buy until you are sure! House prices are still dropping here and renting gives you that extra bit of flexibility
