Ever popular for holidays in the sun, Spain welcomes visitors all year round.

Stay in a villa or apartment for an easy summer holiday with lazy days on the beach, or go further inland to explore Spanish towns and villages. Read about the fascinating and beautiful inland areas of Spain, each with their own character, history and culture.

Or perhaps you would prefer to escape the British winter and rent a village house or villa in Spain, Portugal or Madeira for the winter months when you can rent at rock bottom prices?

Or perhaps, you're looking for a Spanish city break with a stay in a self-catering apartment in Barcelona, Seville or Madrid.
