Description complète
Ciudad
Quesada’s is approximately 40 minutes by car from Alicante city centre, 35 minutes
from El Altet (Alicante) Airport, about 55 minutes from Murcia’s Corvera Airport
and is serviced by the Mediterranean Motorway, the AP-7, which stretches the
length of Spain’s Mediterranean coast. The regional capital, Valencia, is
approximately two and a half hours away by car, whilst Murcia city centre is
somewhat closer and can be reached in about 45 to 50 minutes.
Spanish,
British, Irish, Dutch, Belgian, German, and Scandinavian populations are
represented in many of the local businesses such as cafés, restaurants, bars,
hair and beauty salons, gyms, legal firms, furniture stores, builders,
electricians, butchers, bakers, veterinarians, newsagents, pharmacy and more.
Ciudad
Quesada is served by Rojales Primary (CEIP Miguel Hernández) and High Schools
(IES La Encanta) both of which are state run. In addition, there is a private
Norwegian School (Den Norske Skolen) and a newly opened private English school
(Willow International Academy).
The
town’s medical centre is situated in Lo Marabú, a short 5-minutes’ drive from
the main street, with an additional 24-hour emergency service covered by the
Rojales medical centre. The local hospital is Torrevieja University Hospital.
Torrevieja is also home to a private hospital, Quirón, operated by the
Quirónsalud group.
Arguably
the most appealing part of living in Ciudad Quesada is discovering for oneself
the rich diversity of leisure activities available in the town and further
afield.
Almost
every type of restaurant one could imagine is available, as well as plentiful cafes,
bars and takeaway places, bowling, go-karting, paintballing, theatres, concert
halls, cinemas, and nightclubs. There are outdoor municipal swimming pools, and
Quesada’s very own Waterpark, Aquapark Rojales which is open throughout the
summer months.
The
beaches of Guardamar del Segura and Santa Pola are only 15 and 20 minutes by
car respectively from Quesada town centre and, as well as swimming and sun
worshiping, offer jet skiing, kite and windsurfing, scuba diving, snorkelling
and ferry trips. If you like the outdoor life, it may interest you to know that
the Alicante province is the second most mountainous in Spain which means
forests treks, mountain trails, hillwalking, camping, and mountain biking are
all very popular hobbies here along with cycling routes with the endless
bicycle lanes providing great access to near or far places of interest to
visit.
In
short, whether you come to visit Quesada on holiday, or decide to live here
full time, there is no excuse, even in the very mild winter months, to have
nothing to do.
