Moving to Barcelona (or Spain) from
the UK?
So you’re thinking of moving to Spain, maybe Barcelona
in particular, or, have you just moved to Spain? This site offers
some helpful advice gained from first-hand experience of moving
to Barcelona from the UK and living in Spain.
Accommodation in Barcelona
The accommodation page contains information on rental accommodation
agents – only those that I feel
happy to recommend, of course – for both long-term
and short-term apartments in Barcelona.
NEW: An Apartments for Rent in Barcelona page now lists individual properties available, mainly long term rentals.
If you need short
term rental accommodation quickly there is a great, clean and
centrally-located hostel where you can choose shared or private
rooms with or without en-suite, at very good rates. There's
holiday accommodation too in a traditional Catalan tower and a page listing Bed and Breakfast places. |

 Learn
Spanish in Barcelona
If you don't speak Spanish (Castellano) already you will probably
want to learn. Find a list of Spanish language schools and learn
Spanish (and
Catalan) in BCN.
Catalan cuisine
From el Bulli to Pepe Carvalho's gourmet tastes – Catalonia
has inspirational cuisine. Experiment with some typical Catalan
recipes and visit the best restaurants
in Barcelona.
Legalities, administration, transport and health ...
All important issues: How to obtain your NIE, how to register
at the local Town Hall (a legal requirement), how to register with a doctor and receive
medical care in Spain, and how to get around BCN with public transport and the tickets available.◊
