Peace, nature
and plenty to do

Just down the road lies the unspoilt town of Posadas, where you get a taste of real Spanish life. Wander its narrow streets, have a coffee on a terrace among locals, or visit the lively Wednesday morning market for fresh, local produce.
Closer to home you will also find a beautiful stretch of countryside, perfect for hiking and discovering the local flora and fauna. And for anyone who wants to explore further afield, cities such as Córdoba and Seville are within easy reach.
