One minute from the property you will find the local corner shop and a bakery. Highly recommended and a stones throw away from the house is the highly reputed La Corrala bar and gourmet restaurant.

The Sierra Nevada offers excellent skiing facilites and is only approx 90 mins drive.

Almunecar is unspoilt and the Old Town remains truly Spanish in character.
Recent road improvements now mean it is hardly more than an hours drive from Malaga or Granada airports.
