The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
This long, sandy stretch of the Costa Blanca is littered with small coves and exclusive beaches as well as the fun filled holiday beaches. Shops, bars and restaurants are in ample supply and the temperate climate means that these can be enjoyed all year round.
Several large places of interest provide planty of things to do. They inclue Rio Safari at Elche, Historic and Cultural Murcia, Stepped city of Guadalest, Salt Lakes at Torrevieja and the cave houses at Orihuela.
Alicante itself, as well as being the airport town, also has some of the best fish restaurants in the vacinity along the harbour area.
Benidorm is an hour's drive up the Ap7 motorway (toll of 2.95 euros payable) or a 90 minute drive along the coast road (N332). In Benidorm is the excellect Terra Mitica theme park and Mundomar dolphin park. Why not make a day of it and stop for lunch, in one of the fish restaurants on the way.
Torrevieja area / Alameda Del Mar area
There are lots of places other than beaches, which can be reached from the apartment without difficulties. A book containing details of these, is kept in the cupboard in the living room.
The salt flats can be visited via a bird watching centre, containing leaflets on the types of birds found there.
From Torrevieja Harbour it is possible to catch the ferry to Tarabac Island, steeped in history and excellent for bird watchers.
In Torrevieja Town Centre, you can marvel at the waterfalls and statues in the town square, or eat a meal in the beachside restaurants, or go shopping in the shops and boutiques in the centre. When the shops shut for siesta, you can sample traditional Spanish cooking by walking one road back from the sea front. These restaurants provide chances for you to try out your spanish as well as providing a cheap, interesting meal, washed down with local wine.
Close to the town cante is a mini golf site and near the apartment is the karting track, with mini-carts for young children.
There is a weekly Saturday Street market and two car boot sales on Thursdays and Sundays. Torrevieja street market in on Fridays but a daily fruit and veg market can also be found. Guadamar has a Wednesday market, finishing at the beach, Almoradi has a Sunday market, making a square around the church in the town centre.

Other courses including La Manga complex available within a 30 - 45 minute drive from the apartment. Villamartin golf course is located on the Orihuela Costa is the closest (10 minute drive) and probably the best-known course in the area. Designed by Paul Putman and opened in 1972 the 1994 Mediterranean open was hosted here and, to much local delight, was won by Jose Maria Olazabal. This region of Spain enjoys particularly pleasant winters, and is ideal for golf.
How to get there
Easy to reach via Murcia or Alicante. Almost all budget airlines fly into one or both. Murcia is slightly nearer but it is usually possible to get a cheaper flight into Alicante.
Either is easy to reach by car, if hiring one from the airport, we can provide detailed instructions of how to reach the airport. Journey from Murcia is about 25 minutes and from Alicante should be no longer than 45 minutes.
Taxis from the airport are readily available however we can provide airport transfers if required for a smaller cost. It is possible to get a bus from Alicante Airport to Torrevieja and a taxi from there to the apartment,

These have been provided to make your children feel comfoartable and relaxed, however please make sure that your children take care of them, and leave them in a good state for someone else.

Further details
£50 deposit payable at the time of the booking. The balance is due, 6 weeks before the holiday.
The cleaners will clean and change bedding at the end of each stay. For this, they charge us 65€. It would help us if this could be added to the cost of the rental and paid directly to us, with the balance outstanding, 6 weeks before the holiday. We have had some problems in the past, with people not leaving the money or not leaving enough etc.
