I don’t want to have to buy a car and as I will be buying to stay for a couple of months here and there and mainly in the low season am looking for somewhere in that has a bus service to and from Murcia or between towns and beaches.

Why not look at Santiago La Ribera, all the services you need in the town shops, restaurants, pharmacies, medical centre, post office, library and the list goes on. 

Also lovely beaches with good walks.
