Hi Susan,
I completed on Thursday last week. I have it in writing that they are going to change my fence so the garden is secure. I'm sure a slight bit of pressure will get you the same thing.
The lights down to the car park are not great. In fact the car park is a bit of a nightmare. It is very tight and a real pain to manoeuvre around. I have been around the past couple of weeks down there and so spent plenty of time on site. As is the Spanish way there was a power cut as I was on my way down to the car park. Some emergency lights were on but not enough and I had to use my mobile phone as a torch. The next problem is that the entry gate is out of action during a power cut and so I got stuck in the car park for around ½ hour. Finally on the car park, the entrance in to it, is in reverse to the road. What I mean by that is as you drive into the site the entrance is angled back towards you and so you have to swing right out to be able to get in to start with. Also they have not put any lower edging to the curb at the entrance so prepare for a bump!!
I still think on the whole the site is fine, there are certain things that they clearly have not thought through properly but seem open minded when you tell them the error of their ways.
Another thing I did down there was walk the golf course, its starting to look pretty good with a particularly tricky 7th. Its available to play right now for free. The club house is around 3 weeks away (that’s 3 Spanish weeks !!, so you need to add the same again in months) and then I believe it will be 15 euro a round if you don’t buy the annual pass.
If anyone has any questions from my trip, please let me know.
Steve
