Shopping on the Terrazas de la Torre Golf Resort


The resort has basic facilities, but there are plenty of places to shop nearby

Shopping on the Terrazas de la Torre Golf ResortShopping facilities actually on the Las Terrazas de La Torre Golf Resort are sparse, being limited to the onsite supermarket in the “town centre”. This is reached from the entry gate by going right at the first roundabout and straight on at the second, and the complex is on your right after a couple of hundred yards.


The supermarket sells a selection of foodstuffs and general provisions, as well as garden and patio furniture, and in summer 2013 is open from 9.00 to 14.30 and 17.00 to 20.00. Apart from this the only other shopping facilities onsite consist of a small boutique situated within the restaurant next door to the supermarket.


Unfortunately the rest of the commercial premises in the town centre complex remain unoccupied at the time of writing.
 

Shopping on the Terrazas de la Torre Golf ResortThe nearby towns of Roldán and Balsicas provide adequate opportunities to fill your fridge, with a selection of small shops and supermarkets and various service sector establishments, but these are small towns.


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.


A 15-minute drive away between San Pedro del Pinatar and San Javier is the Dos Mares shopping centre, which includes a cinema ( Sorry- Spanish language films only) as well as a variety of stores and restaurants, and anyone hankering for British food can also nip up to the Iceland supermarket in San Javier.


Shopping on the Terrazas de la Torre Golf ResortThe Parque Mediterraneo complex in Cartagena is only a twenty-five minute drive away: apart from numerous clothes stores it includes a large supermarket, a 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.


Shopping on the Terrazas de la Torre Golf ResortA similar distance away is the regional capital of Murcia, where the city centre is a shopper’s paradise, combining major chain stores with smaller traditional establishments in the central pedestrian streets, such as Platería and Trapería. The city centre is a maze of small streets clustered around the major thoroughfare of the Gran Vía, and the temptations to stop and have a coffee or a bite to eat in the myriad squares and terraces are hard to resist! In Murcia El Corte Inglés is just off the northern end of the Gran Vía, where it merges with Avenida Libertad.


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.
