Hi,

Thank you for your offer.

It would be lovely to meet you sometime for coffee and a chat.

Mum has lived in Catral for 11 years and knows very few people.

Hi everyone,

We are a couple from Holland and we come over to visit Catral and look for a nice apartment.

Can anyone tell us if there are enough shops, bars and restaurants for living the whole year there or do you have to go to other places around?

Greetings Fred & Janna

Hi Guys

Lots of shops in Catral and bars a new Hiperber has just opened so there are 4 supermarkets in town, lots of shopping within say a 30 min drive including La zenia I find there is nothing you cannot get at home over here there is a Spanish version and often its cheaper Lol

Good luck

Keith

I agree with you. 

I find everything locally, in almost four years of living here I have never visited La Zenia.
