We just moved to Peña Rubia outside Villena and would like to meet some people in the area. My husband and I both work, we’ve lived all over Europe, I’m English and he’s South African. We have 2 dogs and now 70 olive trees 😱. Looking forward to making new friends!

Hi there. We’re quite far in land - nowhere near a beach! Where is Playa Flamenca?

Hi there 

I have a holiday home in Villena and often come over on my own, so it would be nice to meet people to socialise. 

I’m over on the 13th so please DM me if you’re free at all. I’m there for 10 days.

Best wishes

Val

Hi Emma,

I live on the other side of Villena, not very far from you at all. I will be only too happy to meet up with you 😊. We have lots of Brits around Villena, you will be pleasantly surprised. Most of us are living permanently here. I am practically retired but some of my friends and neighbours work from home.

Another good way of making friends is to come to the Rastro at Caudete. This is a covered junk 😂 market with an English shop & cafeteria. Open at weekends, from 10am to 2pm. Lots of Brits come for a full-English breakfast or whatever their tipple is! It won’t take you more than 15 minutes to get there from where you live. The road is fairly easy. Google it. 🙂

Ask for me if you come to the Caudete Rastro - I’m Janice

Hi Janice, thanks for your reply. We've already been to the Rastro - loved it!

Would love to meet up for a coffee or something, let me know what is good for you?

Anyone can go, lol. It's great. Found a lovely vintage trunk and some wooden bits and pieces :-)
