Hi,

After being held in lockdown in the UK and waiting for borders to open we are delighted to be arriving in Alhaurin el Grande to start our new life.

Myself Julie, my husband Richard (55 & 58) and our 2 x dogs Holly & Rosa are so looking forward to our early retirement and keen to meet new friends and settle into the community.

Any tips, help or advice for us new to Spain couple would be really appreciated - things like :

Nicest restaurants 

Best bars

Best supermarkets 

Best Drs, Dentists, Vets

Favourite coastal resorts to visit

Best places for plants/garden centres

Best nights out

Anything really - just to give us a head start in settling in.

looking forward to arriving.


Julie & Richard

Hi Julie and Richard.   We moved in to our new house in Coin three days before lockdown, and we are now enjoying getting out and about as the restrictions are lifted.

Have a safe journey over and get in touch once you've settled in.  Would be good to meet up for a drink and a chat.  Best wishes Teresa & Julian x

Hi,

Oh wow Coín - we looked at quite a few properties there so we know it’s very close by - we would love to meet up for a few drinks - we arrive on 11th July it would be great to set something up a couple of weeks later.

Hi Ulli,

We have been here in Alhaurin el Grande now for two weeks and our furniture was delivered one week ago.  So we have been very busy unpacking.

We have builders here in another weeks time to do some remedial work and my sister is visiting 12-19th August, however, we would love to meet up after that.
