Hello all, we are buying a holiday home this year and will spend 6 months there and six months UK. 

Will it be necessary to change our British licences or could we drive on the 'post office International licence' as tourists?

Your UK driving licence will be fine.

Not sure what you mean by 'post office international licence'.

you can only spend 90 days maximum in each 6 month period in Spain.so you would have to do this twice a year.....look at CAB Spain for information
