Plenty of people live in mobile homes over here .... a lot of them are more like houses!

Only been on holiday there I'm afraid (Alcudia). I believe property is a litle more expensive there from what I have read.

Do you have any idea on which area you are looking at? Andalucia for example...

Nothing set in stone but will be looking at Santa Ponsa,Altea,andEl Campello

Altea is a nice place, El Campello has a nice port. Altea has nice restaurants, shops and a boutique feel.

Altea is one of my favourite places, but not in the summer months Also my favourite restaurant is there, serves Strawberry Steak. I know that sounds horrible, but you've just got to try it.

Altea is now beginning to suffer a bit from over build though. I do think the infrastructure can deal with it, but imho its being spoiled. Altea Hills is one of the big Urbs there.

Many thanks to all who have replied to me.

Hi,

We've been living in Spain now, for two years. We decided to move to northern Spain (the 'Lake District' of the 'real' Spain) and arrived here with our eighteen year old cat. She's still going and looking younger, as well (I hope we are, too!). There are no beaches here, no tourists, no noise. If you have an interest in knowing more about Galicia, let me know.
