Advice wanted about where and what to buy in Spain

fiogf49gjkf0d

I am looking to buy my first overseas property, I want somewhere in Spain, North of the Costa Del Sol, mainly to use as a holiday home but also to let out now and then.

I don't want to spend more than about 150000 euros and I would like 2 bedrooms with access to a pool, ideally a townhouse, but will consider an apartment.

I don't want to be in the middle of nowhere, close proximity to amenities is important.

I have leafed through hundreds of new developments all claiming to be the next best thing, my head's in a spin and I would like to get some advice and suggestions from other forum members as to what they think would be a good buy.
