The neighbour hood is very quiet and tranquil. The property is set at the end of a small hamlet not overlooked by adjoining neighbours so is very private. There is a small bar with authentic Spanish tapas available in Venta Del Peral which is only a 10 minute walk away which has a bakery with freshly cooked bread available every day. There is also a small local shop for any possible necessities you may need for your stay. There are plenty of walks around the area along the dried up river bed into the surrounding countryside. The neighbourhood is a very Spanish community with a real sense of rural Spain. Hiking and swimming in Lake Negratin is only a 20 minute drive away with Granada city and Sierra Nevada only an hours drive. The countryside is magnificent here with beautiful villages set anongst gorges such as Castil. With so many beautiful places of interest its a gem of an area nestled on the heart of Andalucía.
