Yes
Probably a tough ask but any truly free (or very cheap) VPNs out there, i have a house in GC/Spain and want to access UK sites and my Discovery + stuff.

I tried Proton VPN and that actually looks great but you cannot pick your country it just assigns auto.
I nned one i can pick the UK

both surfshark and nordvpn are reasonably cheap and work well.
 
I use Mullvad. I think it’s around £5 a month, you can pay as far in advance as you want to. It allows you to choose where you’re connecting.

Surfshark works well for me and it usually has several exit locations to choose from in each destination county - I’ve used it in the last few months to access UK services from Paris and Bilbao.

If you buy 24 months up front, the basic ‘Starter’ VPN service is £1.39 per month with an additional 3 months free.

Edit: screenshot show in where you choose which UK city you pretend to be in when connected via Surfshark - Glasgow, London, Manchester or Edinburgh

It gives you a few alternatives in case a web site has banned one of the VPN IP addresses

Do you have a house in the UK too? I actually have a VPN endpoint published to the internet via my static ip in my house and can connect to it remotely and browse as if I’m in at home using an l2tp connection set up on a raspberry pi without any kind of client. It’s a no techy but it’s not a bad solution - you can get draytek routers which would let you set up a point to point vpn between your uk house and Spain. If your uplink speed is good in the uk it should work well.
 
thanks i went with surfshark 28 months for £42 so seems reasonable
and straight away my discovery+ works fine in GC so yeah happy days
