Information about Daya Vieja, Alicante

I lived in this very rural small community for about 5 years back in the 1980's. Love the pueblo, the local folk are great a fab restaurant too and a couple of bars. Unfortunately it has expanded and a lot of English have moved into the area. Why they didn't just stick to Benidorm up the road where their loutish behaviour is common place. Now this beautiful area is blighted by the Blighties!
