Thanks SligoGent. Sorry for delay in acknowledgement, unavoidable. We'll definitely have a look into those spots. We usually head to Canaries around Paddy's day but perhaps after this trip we'll know better! Thanks again.

...sp; doing  some work on  it,  If  you wish  to meet  up I  will  gladly give some  idea  about  Torrevieja,   

I  have  never spent  a winter  out there  but a lot  of  our  age I  am a Pensioners   early  next year,   I  am single  love  walk  swimming 🏊‍♀️  Sports  but  14  years of  the Beer 🍺,   No  interest  in Golf, 

If   you wish  to explore  Coba Roig  and around  Torrevieja  area  you will  need  Transport,  as 

 January  February  are know  as  wet   season  out there , but  if  looking  for  base out there  a  car is  a  must,  if  you  are use to a  Car  in Munster, you will be  lost,  There  is a  lot of Irish  English  Scots  and European  around  Torrevieja  area,  

I  am based  in Wexford  area ,   if  I  can  he in  any  way  just ask,

Hi Phil,

First, thanks so much for the information and sorry for the late reply. We have a small car booked and we really like getting out to see things, so it will be fun to explore the area.

...the skills! I'm sure Torrevieja will be on our itinerary but not quite sure when exactly. We'll play it by ear. Wishing your every success on your move and once thanks again for the help!
