been looking at bigastro but now also looking at jacarilla to buy.   What is life like living there.   And what about the broadband supply?  Is it fibre or what please?  Thank you so for taking the time to reply.

Colin,

Did you get any information on the Jacarilla area ?

I viewed a property there last week. I loved it but my wife had reservations about the village.

Looked peaceful to me.

Any info is much appreciated.

Regards

Dave

couldn't find anywhere that suited in Jacarilla so bought about a mile away on outer edge of Bigastro.   We love it there, especially Jacarilla.  Very peaceful and the people are so friendly.  If you want noisy bars and nightclubs,  this is not the area for you.  If you want a quiet life and everything on your doorstep/very nearby,  it suits just fine.  The beaches and big shops are just a few klicks away.

Are you there full time ?

Are there a few English speaking people around the Jacarilla area ?

Sorry for all the questions.

Just trying to convince my wife !!

Many thanks again

My wife is full time, me part time whilst I shortly retire.

Yes to English speakers but where we live we are surrounded by Spanish people, which is what we wanted.

Start learning to speak Spanish now,  it is free on duolingo.   And before I get trolled about the merits of using duolingo or any other provider, it suits us.  lol!!
