Hello,

I have visited both resorts as part of my property search and would offer the following:

La Tercia also known as UGR. Golf course and club house are long closed with no signs of reopening any time soon.

The development does feel a little remote but the surrounding area is very pleasant. La Tercia Village feels typically Spanish and Balsicas has all you will need in terms of facilities. Sierra Golf is close by. The course is open and currently being extended from 9 to 18 holes. I enjoyed playing  there and clubhouse is informal and pleasant.

I quite liked the spec of the La Tercia apartments and the pools and gardens are well maintained. We did feel though, that although the property is well priced it was  not for us. Very quiet and a little remote with a little bit of a desolate feel due to the golf course being totally overgrown, fenced off and abandoned.

Corvera

We visited on a Sunday which is market day in the village. Lively pleasant Spanish village with all facilities you will need.

Again the golf course and club house are long gone with no sign of them returning.

The development is well maintained in respect of gardens and pools etc and the immediate vicinity is pleasant.

Property specs were good including decent sized terraces and many properties have a westward orientation. Good for afternoon sun and evening sunsets.

You can walk from the development into the village along well maintained paths and depending on your level of fitness it is 20 minutes down and I would say 30 minutes back up.

Corvera felt more occupied and less remote than UGC but again was not for us.

I liked La Terrazas and would have considered buying there but my wife was concerned about the lack of facilities on the development. Golf Course is open as is clubhouse and supermarket.

We eventually decided to increase our allocated budget and purchased on Mar Menor Golf which has proved to be the right decision for us.

Good luck. I hope it goes well.
