We are looking to rent our house and along with a couple of personal pensions which mature in 2017 take the plunge to full time. Financially though we are 7 years off the state pension.
The plan would be from November to spend sometime in southern Spain close to our Son and family and have found a site with the opportunity to stay inc electric for 8e per night based on at least 1 months stay at the local site to them which is within walking distance. Then to travel around for another couple of months and then to stay at our apartment central coast area for another month or so before returning to blighty for the 'summer' to once again travel around and visit the daughter, not to leave her out!.
We have done a financial forecast to see if it's feasible and it's not looking too bad based on past experience of the cost of living on european villa holidays but would like to hear from others what they think a daily spend that would be adequate. The biggest problem I fear is the cost of living in the UK... i.e... sites.
TIA
Chris
