  • Episode 126 - The biggest PUMP TRACK in Spain now open in Torrevieja, Costa Blanca Spain - Between the Lakes
    In this episode, we witness the opening of the new park at La Siesta by The Mayor of Torrevieja Mr. Eduardo Dolon. The park is host to the largest pump track in Spain. The park is fantastic with lots of courts for tennis, hockey, basketball, football, racket ball, table tennis and children's play areas, the main one being covered from the sun. The park also has an exercise area for both small and large dogs. There are picnic areas, a kiosk and toilets. It's also near shops cafe bars, a bank and eateries. We had a chat with Andy Bowskill of Casas Espania and Brits Living in Spain about how the park will impact the area.

      Hi Ged, thanks for watching. We think Torrevieja is developing into a great place to retire. It has everything you would ever need, and regarding buying property, it still represents good value for money. We did it with zero regrets, All the best Mike and Yvonne.

      Hi, thanks for watching and for your comment. Yes, I was surprised there were no full-sized tennis courts but there are two paddle tennis courts as you have most likely seen on the video. All the best Mike and Yvonne.

    Torrevieja has been ruined in recent years by over development. It is now just another concrete jungle, with over urbanisation.
