For a short stay in Malaga, we recently discovered a really good company, offering fully renovated apartments in the center of the city, located on Calle Santa Lucia, in one of the city's most vibrant areas. The accommodation, in a recently renovated townhouse,...
Well, this was definitely a new one for us. The Hard Rock Hotel. In Puerto Banus. Not really our usual less-is-more. More, more-is-more-and-the-brasher-the-better... So, it begs the question - why? Why on earth did we chose to stay somewhere, so at odds with what we...
When we decided to sell our house in Istria and move to Spain, we initially didn't look at future renovation projects. We thought that we wanted somewhere we would move in, and tinker around the edges, putting our stamp on the property. But, the more that we looked...
We've been on the road now, for over three months, having sold up in Istria and waiting to complete on our dream Andalucian townhouse. We've stayed in a variety of hotels and apartments along the way, and are onto our third Airbnb stay. The first was for the month of...

Sometimes, you find somewhere to stay, that is just so exceptionally beautiful, you spend your whole stay, drinking in the interiors, the exterior, the accessories and accessorisation, and just well, the whole thing. On our roadtrip across Spain, we've been so lucky...
