Re: Area
I think anywhere south of Alicante will do you.
Its a interesting post for me as I think if this was say asked by a Polish guy about the UK I would be wanting to move away from anywhere that would be recommended if I lived in such a place, I understand moving to a ex pat area, I just wonder if Poles and / or those who dedicated there worship exclusively to God would ask the same on there version of this forum.

You would need to be a little more specific.
1 hour from Benidorm is a huge area = Torrevieja to Gandia and MANY towns villages and a city in between.

You wouldn't actually want to go to Benidorm would you?
As a resident, I'd bet that fancy will disappear from thought within a year or two.

It has a bit of everything, and I think for the OP and myself it is great to have a resort like that just 40min - 1Hr away.
When I was last there I stayed in the Melia Vilaitana and I thought wow how nice it will be to just escape from home to come here and relax for a couple of nights when you can find a cheap deal.
I also love the Waterpark Aqualandia and the same goes, you have a quiet day and a pleasure it would be to visit for a day or two.

Hi guys
Our ultimate plan is to buy a property to use as a holiday home and then in approx 8 years if all goes well move out their. I like the idea of being about 1hr drive from benidorm as alot of our friends and family and some previous kids we have fostered go their regularly so would be ideal to pop over to see them now and again. I really don't want to be in the middle of it. My ideal house would be about 20min walk from shops quite remote with its own pool but that's prob out my budget lol. I'm not bothered either if I can live in the house as a holiday home and slowly do it up over a few years. My main thing is finding areas too look at as there all Alien to me lol
