Hello

I'm a newbie on here, we have just bought a house at Los Gallardos and I have just purchased maps from www.cnig.es 

They are the Spanish equivalent of OS and website is in English.  I bought the 0:25,000

Hi

Its worth trying the local town hall (Ayuntamiento) or Tourist information office first. They always generally have good maps for walking about and they are free.

This post that was quoted has been deleted.

I also like The Map Shop at Upton Upon Severn, though not as much use if you are no longer in the UK!

Hi, I looked around for maps for walking and cycling and found the Spanish equivalent of OS which is Mapa Topographica National de Espania. The do 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 scale I prefer the 1;50,000 as the maps are actually quite small and you need to buy quite a lot of them if you want to cover the surrounding area at 1:25,000

I buy them from mapswordwide and they are about £5 each. I ordered them from UK but would think they would deliver them to Spain

Enjoy!

Hi this is nothing to do with maps but it's about los gallardos.We are just in the middle of buying in Huerta Nueva,  just wondered where you are based and if you are there permanently or just for holidays, wondered if you have any info about best internet provider amongst other thingside,  hope you don't mind the question.

Hi We bought a flat in Mojacar Playa last November so we are also quite new to the area. We still live in UK and use the flat for extended holidays. For Internet we use Next and we have not had any problems. Several of our neighbours also use Next but they have had spells when their internet has not worked...I have no idea why theirs seems less reliable than ours. Probably best to ask around your neighbours to see which service has the best coverage where you are.
