The wonderful village of Casares is just 2km away, offering several nice bars and restaurants, some shops, banks and cafés, and a Tourist Office where you can find out more about the sublime hiking trails and panoramic walks of the region! Just 20 minutes away are the famous beaches of the Costa del Sol and it’s just over an hour to the white beaches of the Costa de la Luz.
Just 40 minutes away, Marbella is a thriving city with a traditional and beautiful old town and holds many Michelin starred restaurants and world-renowned beaches where one can soak up the sun and enjoy a cocktail at a beachfront bar! It has a very rich history, visible in the many ruins throughout the winding cobbled streets of its Old Town. The ideal spot for a lively night out!
Malaga, the largest city on the Costa del Sol, is also nearby and is historically and culturally incredibly rich, putting even more activities and amenities at your fingertips. As the birthplace of Pablo Picasso, the city is of course brimming with museums and art galleries, set among a beautiful cityscape of castles, cathedrals and theatres.
The Costa del Sol itself is largely peaceful and quiet, as although there is a large amount of tourism, largely for the fantastic beaches and warm climate (the average water temperature year-round is 18°C!), visitors tend to stick to the highly developed and bustling south-western part, leaving the stunning mountains inland largely untouched and peaceful year-round.
