You went past our apartment near the top of Quesada, you cheered me up as we are back in the UK, thank you.
Thanks for the comment and feedback (not been so positive on Facebook lol)- and thanks for watching 👍
Doesn’t it just. When back in the UK we survive on videos like these.
Brilliant guys, we love beautiful Quesada! Hope to be back there very soon x
Thanks for watching 👍. Good to get some positive feedback from someone that likes Quesada and knows the place.. 🤔🙄🤣🤣🤣👍 hope you're well.
Excellent, very informative as usual. We’re really enjoying your visits to towns around the Costa Blanca. I really appreciate the effort you put into these videos, the drone work has also improved massively - great work Andy 👍.
Many thanks for watching- and the feedback 👍 😊
Theres that lovely music again at the beginning, well done guys x
Thanks for watching! The first track is by soundgrounder- there's also some new tracks of his that he sent just before this video was completed that I managed to use (Only 1 track on this video ISN'T his)- I'll do a link to his UA-cam shortly....

Thanks andy
@@lornathomson8705 no problem 😊
One of our favourite 😍 places. Thanks guys ❤
Cheers guys- hope you're well, thought you may like this one.. thanks for watching 👍
Thanks a lot guys - great footage. now I know where not to go - it looks like Quesada is not a typical Spanish town
Videos like this help people to decide whether a place is for an individual- or not. Thanks for watching 👍
Great Vlog guys, we went there during lockdown, must take another trip - didn't realise the area was so vast...really interesting - great drone footage Andy 👍the weather looked amazing for this time of year. Looking forward to the next one..thanks for taking the time to show us these places Helen,, Andy. Hi Bob 😎
Thanks for watching and the feedback 👍🥰
Been up here a couple of times the old don carlos does some nice food on the man drag.
Great video guys keep them coming!
Thanks for watching 👍 there's actually a card in the video redirecting to your channel 😉
@@britslivinginspain Ah Magic thanks for that, could do with getting some more subscribers.
@@our-placeinthesun so could we lol. Seem to get stuck from time to time...
Lovely couple. Thank you, it's so interesting.
Thanks for watching and the feedback 😊 👍
Very pretty footage and thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching 👍
Looks great, but no good to us if there are no buses. We dont drive and i have mobility issues..
Having watched this video again and spending multiple hours searching for ideal locations to live etc - We narrowed it down to Dona Pepa, Benijofar, possibly Los Montesinos. We are back in December for the whole month. Hasta Pronto ❤ OR El Raso that’s another possibility
Of those, the "Spanish feel" will be from Benijofar and Los Montesinos. We will possibly do a video on El Raso in the future.... thanks for watching 👍
We are coming to the end of our third visit this year. We are hoping to make it our home in the next couple of years. We avidly watch your videos following some of your recommendations, thank you
Thanks! And thanks for watching 👍 🥰
Nice one again Andy and Helen, yes can vouch for this area and there are lots of places you mention in your videos that are not far away are they? For those who might like to know there is a bus service to Quesada from Torrevieja so if you want to explore on foot or take a day out its a doddle.
Thanks for bringing us this.
Hola! We forgot to mention the buses... doh! Thanks for watching- and the tracks 👍👍👍🥰🍻
Thats great, answered my questin. We like look of the area but need a bus service
@@janwilson3898 there's some other areas we've not done yet that maybe more suitable .. hope to have those videos done in the near future
Nice
Thanks for watching 👍
If you are looking for a restaurant recommendation in Quesada high street area ....Boka is brilliant. Fusion tapas. Owner Ronald is fab. Need to book a couple of weeks in advance
Thanks for this, will add it to the list. Thanks for watching 👍
Interesting! What's the biggest expat community in Quesada? We don't know yet Spanish but plan to learn in the future...Are most people speaking English there? Also, is it too far away from the beach?
Thanks for watching. All nationalities there, couldn't say which was the largest expat community country wise. Beach is around 10 minutes by car to Guardamar del Segura.
@@britslivinginspain Thanks! Is Orihuela Costa and Quesada the same thing regarding the expat population, proximity to the beach, shops, etc? We're looking to buy a house in that area, and want to be in an international community where English is spoken.
@SycAamore most of orihuela Costa is closer to the beach, as a rule, plus generally more commercial centres etc. All have expat communities, to a certain degree. Parts of orihuela Costa are more "tourist based" ie. Places close in the winter. Both cover big areas and have their different "sub communities" of areas etc. (Not to be confused with communities)- if you're ever in the area of our office can explain easier in person. Those areas you definitely want to visit to get "a feel" of the area and communities living in that area, as what is right for 1 person is not right for another... it also depends if for permanent living, or for "holidays"- and then it also depends on time of year you are going to visit. We can't cover any of that on videos, unfortunately.. its personal preference.
Rojales and the cave houses would make a nice video
We need to do some research before we head to Rojales, etc. Thanks for watching 👍
@@britslivinginspain thanks for the videos 😃 think the cave houses open on the last weekend of the month
@@gazd2605 thanks for the heads up 👍
Hi, would you be able to cover Atalaya Park area as just read positive things about it, which may make it a good choice for myself as a single person. Will be going over in September to stay with my brother, so will have a look round then. Thanks for the insightful video 😊
Thanks for watching; from memory I don't think there's much there other than houses?- although you can walk to ciudad highstreet relatively quickly...
Is there somewhere in quesada that sells decent or high end bottles of scotch?
Not sure, but if you go to the poligono (industrial estate) in Los Montesinos (about 10 minutes away) there's a Bodega called Alvibe- they provide a LOT of bars around the area and tend to have stuff you wouldn't normally find...
Is there a bus service in quesada, not everyone drives..
Thanks for watching. We inadvertently missed out about the buses. If you look at costazul.net/ you should be able to get routes and timetables from there.
@@britslivinginspain just didnt see any buses or stops and wondered if there were any in Quesada
@@janwilson3898 the link in the previous reply will advise when and where from. They may have it in English as well, possibly.
Hi Bob!
