Hi Caz

It was great to see your interaction with Jenni & Bob, we can completely agree with their comments, Casares is a beautiful village, everyone is so friendly here, we bought a house that had been empty sometime and have tried to use local tradespeople for anything we haven't been able to do our...

...selves at our house, the local people really appreciate this.

Please feel free to get in touch if/when you know you're coming, we would be very pleased to help you in any way we can.

We also know of some local rentals for long and short stays if you get stuck.

You really won't regret "taking the plunge" & we are biased but looked for almost 4 years before buying, Casares is the best of both worlds in this area.

Take care & speak soon

Karen & Tony

Hi Jenni, thanks for replying, it was lovely to hear from you..

Sorry for the delay in responding, Karen's been quite poorly but is now feeling much better.

The village is very quiet but it's very reassuring to see the village is being cleansed a couple of times a day.

Whereabouts in the village is your property?  

If there's anything we can do to support you, please let us know.

We absolutely love Casares, our brother also has a property in the camp here in Casares which is how we found this beautiful gem ... truly beautiful place...everyone is so friendly here, we just love it! 

When this is over, it would be great to meet up if you're visiting, in the meantime, stay safe and keep well, all the best! 

Tony & Karen

Hi there! I have just moved from the U.K. to Bahia de Casares with my husband, Nigel. We got our TIE yesterday (yaaaassss!), so things are feeling a bit more real life now, as opposed to a month-long holiday. Soooo…. time to make new friends, join new groups and start learning Spanish (eek! Som...

...etimes Duolingo just won’t cut it). Nigel is an avid cyclist and rides 80km per day. I am an (almost) avid couch potato, but hoping to change that to encompass all the outdoor activities the beautiful area and fabulous weather will allow. So if there are any walking groups, art groups or Spanish-learning groups you know of or are involved in, please get in touch! Looking forward to hearing from you.

PS or lying on the beach or wine drinking groups. Just saying…

Hi Tracy (and Nigel)

Welcome to Casares and hope you are enjoying life here. We bought an apartment in Majestic Hills in January which is not far from you. We love it here and try and come out as often as we can - we will be retired next year so it will be more often then.

We both enjoy keeping fit and walking, as well as relaxing with a glass of something :)

Keep in touch and maybe catch up when we are over

Lynne and Nigel

Hi Tracy,

At Bahia de Casares you might be better off looking towards San Luis de Sabinillas /Manilva.

I belong to Royal British Legion Group (www.rblduquesa.org) who meet every Tuesday 12-2pm at Duquesa Golf Club. Also there is a craft and art group in both Sabby and Manilva.

If you use facebook try the Manilva Coffee Group.
