Freeview is UK TV via a TV aerial and transmitted by land based masts, the nearest one being in the Channel Islands. So basically UK Freeview IS not available in the Spain, as the signals simply do not reach Spain. Your Freeview box will not connect to a satellite dish as they are two completely different transmitting technologies. And if you do connect your Freeview box to a tv aerial in Spain, it will probably only get Spanish TV channels.
A FreeSAT box, or a free to air satellite receiver will connect to a satellite dish and , as long as the dish is large enough, aligned coreectly to the uk tv satellites, get all the free the UK TV channels.

Instead of SAT consider IPTV needing less tecnical outfit and is also cheaper. All you need is a good internet connection and a so called SmartTV or a firestick.for older TVs. Get familiar with "geoblocking, VPN, darknet, anonymizer" and more, you'll be amazed. And forget about copyright matters, the Spanish law permits copying everything as long as you dont (re-)sell such copies. Enjoy.
