My wife and I are hoping to move to the area and are looking to meet expats in local clubs. My wife's interests are dogs (cavaliers) and I am into football (at local level) and golf. Would anyone have any relevant information, thanks in advance.

As Concierge for the Spanish section of BE I would like to say hello and welcome.

BE is a very large expat website, so if you have problems finding your way around we have concierges who will try to direct you. The moderators for the Spanish forums are Mitzyboy and Fred James, moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE. Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderador who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge of the issues of living in Spain. At the top of the page you will find a quirkily named thread called Free Beer which is full of important and useful information. Hope you enjoy your time participating in the forums.

Please let me know if you need any further help.

thankyou for this reply. If there is any animal rescue centres out there looking for help let us know

I know there are animal rescue centres, but I have no info.

I would suggest you enquire at the town hall in Cuidad Quesada and / or check the free papers where you will find listings for a wide variety of clubs and things which may be of interest to you.

If you are still in UK, you can subscribe to have Costa Blanca News sent to you> http://www.costa-news.com/component/...99/Itemid,169/

Suggest you also check the local editions of Coastrider and Round Town News - Costa Blanca south, they both have editions on their web sites.

Lots of local activities going on when the main summer heat is over.

thankyou for these tips

Where is the town hall in Quesada please, I didn't realise there was one and thought the nearest would be Rojales? We will be moving close to there in 8-10 weeks but if we can't find anything suitable may well end up in Quesada.

here, maybe?

I think it must be a different Ciudad Quesada. I mean the one near Guardamar del Segura and Ive scrolled across that one on google maps without finding an Ayuntimiento marked.

that seems to have gone to the wrong map

try this

There are very good facilities in Ciudad Quesada, you could do worse.

There are several Ayuntamiento is this local. This is the address see here > https://plus.google.com/116663987050...37210226/about

This is the town hall in Ciudad Quesada

Ah yes thank you, should have remembered, we were in Goyo's almost directly opposite just over a couple of months ago.
