Holiday essentials: why sun, sea and sand will always win big at this time of year<\/h3>\n

British summer time is officially over. The clocks have gone back and our evenings have been plunged into darkness for another year. It is no wonder, then, that the attraction of sun-kissed beach holidays suddenly seems so much more powerful. According to leading Spanish home builder Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a<\/a><\/strong>, the end of the summer is always a key driver for British buyers to seek out second homes in the sun.<\/p>\n

“Throughout September and even much of October, the UK usually has enough sunshine left to keep people going. However, the end of British summer time means that dark evenings and cold weather are suddenly stretching out ahead for months on end. As such, searching for a sunshine-filled holiday, or indeed a second home somewhere warm, suddenly takes on a renewed sense of importance.”<\/strong><\/em><<\/p>\n

Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Director\u00a0of\u00a0Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

For those seeking the sun, the Costa del Sol is ideal. With beaches aplenty, as well as world-class golf courses, it not only makes for a wonderful holiday destination, but also has excellent potential as a place to retire to.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Nor is it just British holiday makers and second home buyers who are focusing on the Costa del Sol at this time of year. 1 November (All Saints’ Day) is a holiday in 14 European countries and the Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a team is expecting a regular seasonal increase in the number of visitors and enquiries over the course of the long weekend. The allure of the Spanish lifestyle appeals to many of those living in Scandinavia, Germany and other European countries, as well as those in the UK.<\/p>\n

Cultural activities and Spain’s superb gastronomic offering are part of the attraction, as is the country’s easy accessibility. For those in the UK, Jet2 has recently announced the addition of an extra 235,000 seats on its routes between the Midlands and Spain, with up to four services per week into Malaga as part of its Winter Sun 2019\/20 schedule.<\/p>\n

“The fact that the Costa del Sol is so quick and easy to reach is really the icing on the cake. It’s a holiday destination with it all, and it’s just a short hop from the UK. These fundamental characteristics are the reason that the area has earned such immense popularity with British holiday home buyers – it’s the perfect sun-kissed getaway location.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Director\u00a0of\u00a0Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Those looking for the perfect second home in Spain would do well to consider Green Golf<\/a>. Just 3 km from the beach (and with some spectacular sea views), Green Golf is part of the lush Estepona Golf course. The private residential development boasts pretty communal gardens and outdoor pools, while individual homes feature large, south facing terraces for making the most of the abundant sunshine. Prices start from \u20ac280,000 plus VAT.<\/p>\n
