Police in Spain have launched an investigation into the deaths of an Irish couple at a coastal resort in Valencia.
The bodies of the 50-year-old man and the 45-year-old woman were found at a property in the town of Cullera, south of Valencia, the Civil Guard has confirmed.
They were discovered by their children, who are aged 14 and 15.
