#Loveit – A Place in the Sun TV Show

Just how many years has the UK TV show “A Place In The Sun” been going? How many people, we wonder, has it inspired to up sticks to a better life abroad or buy a holiday home in another country? Countless and many no doubt.

Visit the APITS website for more information.

We loved the show years ago and still do. We remember watching, during those cold UK winter months, the many couples on their dream journey. And with some envy and awe of a better lifestyle in the sunshine.

Well, back in the early 2000s we were stuck in a corporate work life and burning out. Those pictures of blues skies and Al Fresco tapas bars sure inspired us and many more to move to abroad. In our case, it was Spain.

15 years ago, after a few trips to look for a dream villa, we moved to the Hondón Valley, to work at a slower pace, enjoy the warmer climes and address the work/life balance we had got so wrong in England. Working from home at first, we set up a simple real estate portal (hondon.co.uk) in Feb’ 2006. It was to then become Hondon Villas.

And we are still here, having listed and sold selling 1000’s of properties in the Hondon Valley areas. #localagent

And what is so nice is we have now helped APITS with their TV program quite a few times (pinch ourselves!). It sure generates a vibe in the local area when we know APITS is in town, often catching the famous presenters, like Jasmine, Jonnie or Laura in the village squares. Of course then the local Expats want to see the show when it is eventually broadcast on UK Channel 4.

So, yes, we have to thank APITS for the inspiration, really. Giving us that window into a life abroad was definitely via the TV, was the catalyst for our journey. We have no regrets making the move. It is what you make it of course and there will be highs and lows, but you’ll be thankful for the tranquil pace, culture, food and social aspects for sure if you make even the smallest effort to play. Thankfully, the APITS TV prog’ still inspires so many to make a life-changing move to Spain, and NOW we get to meet them and share our story.

Happy! ;-)

NOTE: You can find more information about A Place in the Sun on their website, Twitter or Facebook pages. You can still apply to be on their program too.

You can also catch past series and episodes of A Place in the Sun on the ALL4 website. Plus, for new buyers, they still run the Property Exhibitions in the UK (they are well worth a visit).

Beautiful Views of the Hondon Valley

Back in the UK, my office and garden looked on a rather ugly row of shops!! It was often grey, cloudy or raining. Hardly inspiring.

Living in inland Spain, like the Hondón Valley, you get to appreciate the warmth, the sunshine and hopefully with the right villa, the ever-changing light and views of the Hondon Valley… it’s greenery, the 360 mountains and awesome sunsets.

Property #102 Hondon Villas : Well we have a very neat and tidy 3 bedroom villa on the popular La Montanosa Urb with probably the best views of the valley from the comfort of the raised patio or from the poolside. Take a look.

The house and pool basks in the Spanish sunshine most of the day. It has recently been re-decorated to a high standard and is ready for you to make your mark.

The pool area is positioned to maximise the al fresco lifestyle so important with 300+ days of sunshine per year. … a morning swim and then breakfast maybe! Bliss.

The villa also has a good-sized under house floor that can be used for storage, a workshop or a gym.

The kitchen is fully fitted and open-plan to the lounge/diner, very airy and the lounge has a pellet burner heater for the chillier winter nights.

There is also a roof solarium offering great views, sun-bathing and more “party” seating.

The double drive gates offering parking space for a vehicle. There is also a pedestrian gate.

This villa has been recently painted and is in immaculate order. Book your viewing today.
