Myself and a friend want to go for 5-7 days to Spain, first week in August....don't mind where we fly to (will prob buy flights/hotel separately but Malaga seems cheapest?) so has anyone got any recommendations for any great hotels? (never been to Spain, don't know it at all) Not too pricey! Or recommendations of cheaper places to fly to in Spain - thanks

Agree with Quids...Costa de la Luz is lovely, though it can be a little blustery.


At the other end of the country, Asturias in the North is stunningly beautiful and there are far, far fewer tourists (you may wish to learn a little Spanish - it will enhance your visit for sure).


Have a lovely holiday.

I love Barcelona. You could go there and to Sitges which is just outside so would be a good contrast between beach and city. Barcelona does have some beaches though. and would make a nice beach holiday.


Near Malaga is Nerja which is a quieter resort. Have been to Nerja twice and it was very relaxing, although I never visited in August. You could do a day or overnight trip to Granada to see the Alhambra. I did self catering both times in Nerja.

If you'd like an off the beaten track for foreigners holiday try El Portil. It where my in-laws and family go each August. Lovely beach and when I'm there I don't meet any foreigners at all. So it's a really Spanish in that respect. The blurb I briefly looked at suggested you would meet foreigners there. That's news to me apart from one Scottish lass in a beach bar. It's actually not too difficult to get to from Faro and the trip is really nice if you take the boat across the river between Portugal and Spain. The village Faro is nice too. Otherwise it's a matter of flying to Seville.


PS I know nothing about the website. There may be others. It was the first one to come up in a search.

    • tried the traditional beef empanada yesterday and it was amazing honestly, hotter and better than the other place (no offence!). I really don’t see the issue with having more than one of the same type of shop – we’ve got Indian restaurants, two supermarkets, two cheese shops, two pizza joints, even two paint shops! So I don’t get what all the fuss is about. Good food is good food, and there’s room for everyone.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
