The Simpson Difference
About Spain Holidays
So much more than sun, sand and sierra, Spain is one of the most familiar yet least known of the European countries bordering the Mediterranean. This is particularly true of the province of Andalucia and the Balearic island of Mallorca. Move inland a few kilometres from the well-known holiday resorts in Spain and a whole other world opens up.
Simpson Travel's Spain portfolio offers a wide range of holidays: family friendly holidays, couples' holidays, etc and it's not just a questions of getting away from the crowds. It's about finding the true spirit of the country and discovering traditional authentic holiday destinations in Spain; the dramatic landscapes of the Axarquia, the back country that runs north to Granada; in the Pueblos Blancos, the dazzling white hilltop towns built by the Moors, full of churches, sunny squares and shady cobbled streets; and in the charismatic cities of Granada, Seville and Cordoba, packed with historical curiosities, art treasures and exuberant life.
As for the perennially popular holiday resort of Mallorca, it has vast areas of tranquil rural beauty rarely seen by most visitors. Red-tiled villages basking amid olive groves in the foothills of the Serra Tramuntana. Isolated monasteries and primitive sanctuaries. Sleepy old towns with whimsical sundials and great markets. Spectacular strips of coast hide tiny empty beaches. And everywhere is accessible on an island that is barely 40 miles in any direction.
Simpson Travel's holidays in Spain offer some of the most exclusive villas, fincas, casitas and hotels in our diverse and beautiful featured regions of Spain. Add to this our flexible tailor-made itineraries, we believe we offer a truly comprehensive holiday programme to the lovely corners of Spain.
Spain Weather
The weather in Spain is that of a Mediterranean climate. There is no ideal time to visit Spain, but it is most enjoyable in May, June, September and October when the days are balmy and glorious, and the evenings cool. Spain also offers a pleasant year round temperature making it an ideal getaway for Christmas & New Year - we do offer winter rentals in Spain.
Beach Holidays in Spain
With such long stretches of coastline Spain is a fantastic destination for a beach holiday.
The Spanish themselves favour the Atlantic shoreline, but there is sand to spare, anchored by pine and eucalyptus trees or esparto grass spiking long stretches of dunes.
Our holiday villas in El Palmar are wonderfully positioned and just a few minutes' walk from the golden sands of this lovely unspoilt wild beach.
Guide to the best beaches in Spain
Beachfront Hotels and Coastal Cottages in Spain
Simpson Travel offer a wide selection of properties ideally suited to those seeking a beach holiday in Spain.

The Flavours of Spain
In Spain, eating out is a way of life and the quality of restaurant food has to be good, but the food is rarely pretentious. Simple, tasty and decidedly moreish is the best way to describe it whether you are ordering a refreshing bowl of cool gazpacho or a plate of freshly grilled calamares with a chilled glass of Vina Sol.
Family Holidays in Spain
Spain is still a favourite holiday destination for families with children. It is just a two hour flight from the UK making travel arrangements far less stressful for families, offers pleasant weather all year round and safe, sandy beaches for all to enjoy.

Off the Beaten Track
On the hills and in the hollows of Mallorca's rugged northwest, some of the old fincas (rambling farmhouses) have been turned into wonderful holiday retreats. This is Mallorca that is a world away from bustling resorts, that only a fraction of visitors to the island even discover.
Andalucia opens its heart to the inquisitive traveller, especially in the less visited areas, where there's an enthusiastic welcome from local people for anyone who cares to stop and explore. And there is much to stop for. Many smaller towns and hill villages offer a treasure store of Renaissance and Baroque architecture.
These are just two alluring examples of the beautiful regions from Simpson's ‘roads less travelled' that make up our fabulous portfolio of holidays in Spain.
Spain's Character and Tradition
Not a month goes by in Spain when there isn't some colourful fiesta or special religious feast or holiday to take precedence over the comings and goings of every day life. Spanish people have a deeply rooted respect for history and are passionate about preserving their cultural heritage.
The Regions of Spain
So much more than sun, sea and sand. Spain is one of the most familiar yet least known of the European countries bordering the Mediterranean. This is particularly true of the provinces of Andalucia, Costa de la Luz, and the Balearic islands of Mallorca. Move inland a few kilometres from the well-known Spain holiday resorts and a whole other world opens up.
Andalucia
A holiday to Andalucia is all about finding the true spirit of the place - The dramatic landscapes of the Axarquia, the back-country that runs north to Granada; in the Pueblos Blancos, the dazzling white hilltop towns built by the Moors, full of churches, sunny squares and shady cobbled streets; and in the charismatic cities of Granada, Seville and Córdoba, packed with historical curiosities, art treasures and exuberant life.
Costa de la Luz
From Tarifa, the most southerly point of Europe, the Costa de la Luz - ‘coast of light' - runs like a golden ribbon westwards to Cadiz and beyond to the border with Portugal. The Spanish themselves favour this Atlantic shoreline for their holidays, but there is sand to spare!
Mallorca
Mallorca has vast areas of tranquil rural beauty rarely seen by most visitors. Red-tiled villages basking amid olive groves in the foothills of the Serra de Tramuntana. Isolated monasteries and primitive sanctuaries. Sleepy old towns with whimsical sundials and great markets. Spectacular strips of coast hide tiny empty beaches and everywhere is accessible on a perfect holiday island that's barely 40 miles in any direction.
