Hi everyone,

We will be in Arcos for a couple of weeks and need to find somewhere local to undertake an Antigen test that we can use for our flight back to the UK. Has anyone advice on this please?

Thanks in advance,

Ross and Elena 

Hi can anyone recommend the name of a scooter hire company in or close to Arcos

Thanks Wendy 

I am intending to relocate to the Arcos de la Frontera area this summer and have been looking at house prices in Arcos. There are quite a number of houses in the old town and at the edge that seem incredibly cheap, like around £60000 for a 2/3 bedroom house. It even looks like they are generally in good condition and need barely more than cosmetic work. As I am aware that there are problems with illegal houses in Spain I am of course suspicious but can't see how these old buildings can be illegal. I wonder if anyone can offer any explanations and if there are maybe other things I need to watch out for. Many thanks in advance for your thoughts.....

Hi Everyone

I am not sure how many people on this site actually live in Arcos de la Frontera. However, if you do please can you post your name and tell us a little bit about yourself.

Why you chose Arcos in the first place, what its like to live there and what do you love and not like about it ....

Thanks in advance Wendy 

Hi.All can anyone tell me what the equivalent is to the UK car tax and MOT in Spain.

also on my last visit to Spain I noticed every building had bars on the windows and doors is this to do with the crime rate or is there another reason hoping to spend 3 or 4 months in  Arcos de la Frontera when travel restrictions allow 

As we all now know relocating to Spain comes with more requirements.

I was wondering how you all tackled the accommodation test when completing your visa application.

As i understand it they like to see a 12 month lease ?

Your story would be much appreciated   

We are looking to buy a property in Arcos and have found something we like. We now need a lawyer and surveyor and I wonder whether anyone has used someone they would recommend.

Many thanks.

Hello, We are lookng for a rental property for 6+ months in the Arcos/Jerez/Costa de la Luz area (acessessible by car) to start from end of March / beginning of April, which is when our current rental at Cabo Roig expires. 

We're a retired couple with pets (feline) who want to spend some time exploring Western Andalucia before we purchase a permanent home.  2 or 3 beds would be great. Any ideas?

Thank you,

Rob and Laurian

I was wondering how easy it was to rent in Arcos with a dog.

Thanks Wendy
