Shopping La Torre Golf Resort
There are shops on-site and also plenty of excellent shopping options within a short drive of the resort


In the general store next door, LOTS, bicycles can also be hired. Both are located about 200 yards from the main northern entry gate on the right.

There is also a hairdresser’s and beauty salon in the La Torre Golf Resort Town Centre, the Centro de Peluquería y Estética. Opening times are 10am to 7pm from Monday to Saturday in summer and Tuesday to Saturday in winter. An estate agent Murcia Services, a travel agent, a solicitor’s office and the chemist’s also occupy commercial premises near the restaurant area in the town centre of the resort.

Those looking for a real shopping day out will have to look further afield to Torre Pacheco, (20 minutes’ drive away), which has everything one might expect to find in a typical medium-sized town, or the coastal towns of Los Alcázares, San Javier and San Pedro del Pinatar. Also twenty minutes down the road on the coast of the Mar Menor, these towns are far more international, and the Oasis centre and Avenida Río Nalón in Los Alcázares are filled with a large number of British-style establishments, including both shops and restaurants.

The Parque Mediterráneo shopping complex in Cartagena is only a twenty-five minute drive away: apart from numerous clothes stores it includes a large supermarket, a Primark, Media Markt, Toys ‘R’ Us, Decathlon and Leroy Merlin. Those who enjoy their shopping in a more traditional environment can also visit Cartagena’s old city centre, where the pedestrian streets are full of colourful small shops, some traditional and some part of large international franchises, interspersed with bars and restaurants. The largest department store in the city is El Corte Inglés, which is located about a mile north of the Town Hall.

Outside the centre to the north are the city’s two major out-of-town shopping centres, Thader and Nueva Condomina. Those who enjoy clothes shops will be in seventh heaven here, and among all the establishments touting their wares there are also numerous eateries. Outside the main concourses are other larger superstores, including Ikea, Media Markt, Leroy Merlin and Porcelanosa, where the number of foreign visitors normally ensures that sales staff are able to communicate in English.
