The couple are veterans of the West End and Broadway, and are looking for a holiday home in the sun which one day may become their permanent home for them and their beloved dog Trinity. The couple have set a budget of £150,000 and Jasmine has lined up 5 fantastic options to show them, but will the couple love any of them enough to put in an offer?

About the area

It’s a popular destination for lovers of relaxation and culture that’s easily reached from the UK with plenty of flights into its international airport. The one hundred and twenty miles of coastline here as with a lot of southern Spain’s shores has a nickname, Costa Calida or warm coast, referring to the climate of the region that’s described as never too hot or too cold. While there are a number of popular towns and resorts along the coast, it’s also a great place if you’re looking to get away from it all with acres of countryside dotted with handy and often very traditional villages.
