Hi, am I right in thinking if I fly back to UK for a couple of days I can come back for another 90 days? Assuming 14 days quarantine is over.

Thanks Regina.

No.  After brexit transition has ended it will be a strict 90 days in total in any rolling 180 days for time spent in the whole of the Schengen zone.

Get some thick fluffy slippers the floors are what makes the rooms so cold. We have a giant rug that we put down in the winter months and it almost fills our living room floor. Blast heat on aircon then lower it to a comfy temp. I have a hot water bottle and put it in the bed.

Exactly what I do. Plus I close doors to rooms/bedrooms not in use to concentrate heat in the rooms in use.

Hello...No Regina, as Davebev said,  sadly you have to return to UK for 90 days before you can return to Spain

If you don't have air-con in the apartment, or not in every room, another option is to use a portable electric heater. I purchased a couple of these below for an apartment & €70 will buy you a portable device which heats up quickly and can warm a 15-20m2 room easily enough - bigger versions available. As an example, we'd put one of these in the bedroom around 15m2 for 20 mins before bed, leave on low most of the night and did the job, cheaply - in that apartment no aircon or central heating - so 2 or 3 portable radiators do a decent job.

Bring warm stuff and get an oil filled radiator supplied. We leave one on all day in the hall area with doors open and windows closed. It takes the chill off the air
