Which village is best for retirement?
Hi all, our names are Pat and Rose, I'm 64 and my wife is 60 we are hoping to retire out to the Costa Blanca next year. We will be renting first for 3 to 6 months to explore the area. We are hoping to buy a 3 bed country villa close to a village that has some shops, restaurants and supermarket near by. Ideally it would be nice to be about a 20 to 25 minute drive to the coast. Which towns nearby have rail links? What is public transport like?We are looking at the villages of Dolores, Cateral, Rojales, Almoradi and Algorfa. Any info on these areas would be great and also if a good expat community is close by. We are learning spanish so want to integrate with the spanish community as well. We hope to visit in March so if anyone knows any good hotels or B&B in the above areas, please let us know.
