Where to find listings for long-term (NOT HOLIDAY) rentals?

Hello everyone!

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but: My wife and I live in Germany but are considering renting a place in Spain for six months or so. Searching on the internet finds nothing but a clutter of holiday rentals for 300 Euro a week, which is definitely not what we're after.

How does one go about finding a normal flat in Spain, preferably furnished, for a six-month or so lease? We don't care if it's in some boring little town where we can't get our foreign food products or watch TV in our language. Authentic spanish is good. There must be some online websites that are for normal flat rentals, not just for tourists?

Thanks for any advice,

Sean

(And sorry for also posting this in the real estate forum, I wasn't sure which was more appropriate, here or there.)
