Escape the cold and enjoy Christmas in the Spanish sun

Escape the cold and enjoy Christmas in the Spanish sun If you've had enough of bleak British winters why not consider buying a home in Spain that you can escape from the cold to and enjoy Christmas in every year? If this sounds like the perfect Christmas gift, Taylor Woodrow de España has a fantastic selection of homes which are ideal for those looking to swap their thermals for swimwear permanently.

With prices starting at just £139,265* and big reductions on 31 homes which must be sold before the end of the year, now is the time to snap up your dream home in the sun.

The properties available range from stylish apartments to luxury penthouses and spacious townhouses and are set in a variety of locations across the Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca and Mallorca.

Victor Sagué, sales and marketing director for Taylor Woodrow de España, said: “Christmas holidays abroad are becoming increasingly popular but the demand means that finding a cheap deal is often difficult. If you want the freedom to escape the damp British weather whenever you want to, then why not buy your own home in Spain?

“It is virtually impossible to be stressed on a Spanish Christmas holiday when you’re bathed in sunshine and surrounded by beautiful beaches and welcoming people. Getting to Spain is quick, easy and relatively inexpensive if you book flights in advance, and you’re likely to wake up on Christmas Day morning in glorious sunshine! We have a number of homes at fantastic prices that are built and ready to move into quickly, meaning you could be enjoying holidays in Spain sooner than you think. ”

Those who enjoy skiing will find that Taylor Woodrow de España’s developments on the Costa del Sol are ideal. They’re within a few hour’s drive of the Sierra Nevada Ski Resort where skiing is available from October to May, which means you can get the best of both worlds; a couple of days skiing before returning to relax on the beach.

You don’t need to worry about missing out on all the Christmas traditions. Many customs are the same in Spain as the UK, included the hanging of Christmas lights, nativity displays and family gatherings with plenty of good food and drink.

Victor added: “Although many traditions are shared, Christmas in Spain is far less commercial than in the UK. People don’t race around the shops buying huge numbers of presents, crackers, cards and festive paper. Instead they spend time with their family and friends, share a huge feast and catch up over glasses of Cava.

“While gift giving is important in Spain this takes place in January instead of Christmas Day, and there are no stockings waiting to be filled or presents under the Christmas tree. Instead children fill their shoes with straw and place them by the fireplace for their parents to fill with little gifts."

So if you fancy giving you loved ones a fantastic Christmas present this year, why not consider buying them their dream home in the Spanish sun?
