Tips on what household items to bring from the uk rather than buy in Spain?
Any advice that can be offered would be apppreciated. Am I best to just buy everything in Spain?
We shall be taking ownership of a holiday apartment in November. We have ordered the larger items of furniture, ready to be installed when we arrive, from a company in Torreviejca.
We intend to drive over from the UK, so could bring some items.
We shall need all the usual household items for the kitchen, (pots, pans, cutlery) plus bedding, towels, and a hoover (Dyson?) etc. We thought Ikea might be the place for plates etc. I have seen reference to 'Chinese' shops, are they good value?
Do people use steam cleaners for the tiles in the apartment, or just a mop?
Are there any items that we would be better buying in the uk and bringing with us?
We shall need bedding but not 100% cotton, as sold in Ikea, as it needs ironing! I would prefer a mixed fabric. What shops are there in the area that would be worth visiting?
Any hints or advice from people's experiences would be good to hear. Thank you.
