Costa Dorada (south Catalonia)

South of Tarragona, the "golden" coast is still relatively untouched, with great beaches and pretty seaside towns such as L'Ametlla de Mar. At the costa's foot is the Ebro River delta - the biggest Mediterranean delta after the Nile - a magnificent nature reserve and a paradise for twitchers. Temperatures are about 5C warmer than on the Costa Brava, so the winter is short and mild. Inland, the Priorat, Conca de Barbera and Pendes areas are heaven for wine-lovers and foodies, and the Ebro Valley is perfect for ramblers.
"Overlooked" is the best term to describe south Catalonia, says Rita Fryer, of The Property Finders. Though property prices here have risen by only 10% during the past year, below the national average of 13.4%, Fryer thinks now is the time to invest. "When you look into what you can get for your money and what the region has to offer, you see it's tremendous value," she says.

Coastal apartments start at £100,000 and good-quality detached villas within walking distance of the beach are priced from £270,000. Inland, village properties start at £100,000, though you might find a 250sq m olive press to refurbish for £35,000. Rustic properties for refurbishment, with a few hectares of olive groves, start at about £120,000.
