when we were looking for a villa in denia (which sadly didnt happen, due to not being able to sell ours in valencia) we had a bit of a view quandry.
our apt down there is perfectly situated for bars, shops and beach (2mins) but with no view, other than the montgo in the distance and the comm. gardens and pool. on the flip side, we have friends that live on the montgo slopes overlooking denia, and the views are breathtaking! absolutely gorgeous, but too far away? being social beings, we just couldnt decide whether it was better to have the view, and have to drive everywhere, or be right down in amongst it, and have everything at your doorstep........
my father in law lives in a coastal town in the uk, overlooking the beach and bay. i can sit there for days just staring out to sea, watching the world go by. i love it. but then, where he is, is a 5 min stroll to the local, the yacht club (not for me, for him) and the shops, so he has the best of both worlds. well, except the weather

And there are probably four months of the year when the cloud obliterates the view and the humidity is high. It's the mix of cold and damp that puts me off.

only 4?

it would be pretty cold & damp on the north side of the mountain looking down

mind you - over this side

Just going on what friends say who live up there in the clouds.

I believe they are now looking for an apartment in Javea.

Well i liked both side of the mountain and hope to see you both there again next year

But I'm sure you said Denia had a bit more class, didn't you Sam?

Hahahahahahahaha 'Call me Babe' hahahahahahaha - yeh it did hahahahahahaha

we tried up in the clouds in Javea - too damn cold - much better 'at the bottom'

you mean you'll have time - thought you were going to Fuengywotsit?

lets not do that again

For Easter - im coming your way in the summer - Mitzy sofa is soooooooooooooooooooooo comfy ya know

Gonna try for 2 weeks over Sammys side coz John wants to see more of round there and Portugal then coming over your side for last 2 weeks and we can just chill out - yeh right

thats fairly true - i'd need to spend those months in the pub.......but you're right, it is a bit damp up there at times. views/schmoos, who needs em?

At some point it should be feasible (maybe it is already) to have a screen on your wall showing a view from an internet webcam in say the Himalayas or a Norwegian fjord or Yosemite national park.
