Brexit just around the corner and we’re moving to Castalla permanently approximately July. We have a house there,just holidaying until then. Do you recommend taking out Spanish Recidency. Any advice would be welcome. Going out on early February (3–10) is there any place holding discussions on this subject?

To add to what Ray's said, taking out residency isn't optional - you must do it.
If there's a no-deal Brexit, you'll first need a long-stay visa and then have to apply for residencia within a month of arrival.
Thanks to both of you. One last question (for now),who do we approach for the long stay visa?Is there an agent who can set this up -can you recommend anyone.

If there's a no-deal Brexit, or the UK isn't added to the list of countries whose citizens don't need a visa, then it has to be done through the Spanish consulate in your home country.Hopefully it won't come to that, but I covered the possibility here:
