Retirees find comfort in British sense of community in Spain
Once again crime and weather are to blame for the record number of over 55s wanting to leave the UK. New research from the Foreign Office divulges that more than four in ten Brits nearing retirement age are considering doing it abroad..
Each year around 200,000 Brits leave for foreign shores. Official Foreign Office figures reveal that a third choose Australia or New Zealand whilst more than a quarter went to Spain or France. Weather is the main driver, particularly this year after a snow-strained winter, one of the worst in decades.
Residents relish the familiarity of being able to tuck into a pint and a pasty whilst poring over a copy of the Daily Mail and chatting comfortably in English. But of course we have a healthy dose of ‘foreignness’ to boot in the shape of fabulous weather, imposing mountain vistas, mouth watering tapas, sweeping beaches and clean seas. Camposol has all the ingredients for the best ‘home away from home’.”
A big retirement fear is finding plenty to occupy your time to evade boredom. Various resorts in Spain teem with clubs and societies from painting to dancing, aerobics classes to Spanish lessons, reading circles to diving clubs - being on permanent holiday is certainly much more fun if you have people to share it with – then of course there is always Golf..
Taking shape over the past decade and a brief ten minute drive from the attractive coastal resort of Mazarron, the Camposol Resort counts various commercial centres including traditional Irish pubs, pizza restaurants, a selection of takeaways, a full-size household name supermarket and various services from doctors to hair and beauty salons. Properties, built in traditional Murcian style with ballustraded terraces and tiled archways cloaked in bright bougainvillea, vary in size and design from bijou one bedroom terraced cottages to grandiose three bedroom detached villas with private pools on 650m² plots.
