Hi out there
WE are semi retired and looking to move to Alicante, we would like to be within 20 mins of the school or college ( teenage daughter ) will hopefully finish her education there. We feel we need to rent for now , what with Brexit ideally we would prefer a villa ) only because we live in a new build house here) I am going on but estate agents is the main question at the moment we are coming over on the 17th on the month (booked an Airb&B) for the 4 nights and the  plan to view places any tips help is greatly appreciated especially with school tips etc and location ,, kind regard

Hi , have you been to Alicante before  ? Are you looking to live in the city or surrounding areas .
Also are you looking for a Spanish state school or private international school
We have been living in a village just outside of Alicante for  15 years our kids went through Spanish school but they were quite Young when they started

HI
Yes we know the area and city very well, hence why we want to move there.
The shcool would be a private school , our daughter does not speak Spanish and is in the english system, she is only in year 10 and would be doing her GCSE's in the uk them hopefully her Alevels in spain or a college . We would like to rent for a 6mts to a year and be about 20 mins from the city so not in the city centre, prferable  house or villa, with good transport to the city.

There is a private schlool called the British school of Alicante , at the south end of Alicante , there is a big urbanisation about 20 min called Gran Alicant might be villas to rent there ?
