Moving to Spain
Hi My wife and I intend to move to Spain from the UK (costas - not sure which) and would like advice on good towns to consider buying. Preferably on or near the coast, good mixed English/Spanish community with things going on. E.G. clubs, darts, bowling, live music etc. Any advice welcome?

I am new to the forum, but not to living in Spain as I have just moved from the Costa Brava where I lived for 30 years to Valencia. In terms of the activities you describe, I have found way more to do down here on the Costa Blanca than on the Costa Brava where there is not such a large expat community.
The weather can be quite cold up there too in the winter time - so maybe you want to consider removing anywhere North of Barcelona off your list. From the towns I have visited so far down this way, possibly Javea sounds like it might be up your street.
