Half the year..where to go.

Thanks for that John.

I have a problem doing searches on google as I suffer with blurred vision after 20-30 minutes on the computer.

I've found a place on the western Algarve near Lagos which is ideal for us but the rent is £800 per month. Would like something a bit cheaper if possible.

If you or anybody else founds a link to any agents in the Jerez area I would appreciate it.

What type of place you after, apartment, house?  Need a garden?  Inner city or rural?

I'll see what I can find, my OH has a few agents sites bookmarked.

Thanks John,

Ideally Rural, twin beds, bungalow no stairs, parking for car, wifi

Prices should be negotiable, I'd probably look to getting a 5-10% discount on the advertised prices.

Heres a nice one to give you a start.  Its a bit further east but Jimena is nice, stopped off there for a lazy lunch a while back and liked what I could see.  Its a typical Andalucian hilltop village - not sure what its like in Winter though!

There doesn't appear to be many rural properties advertised by the agents in Jerez - maybe you need to decide on an area and see what agents there are in that area.  Some nice apartments listed with these ones, many having lifts.  Just look for "ascensor".  I found plenty I'd be happy with, but they're not exactly rural - you could just email them as they may point you in the direction of someone with rural properties.

Thanks for the links John. It will take me some time to browse that lot.

Why bother Don, just email them - you've got a good idea about what you want so rather than plough through a lot of properties that'll be of little interest, let the agents do the work.
