Casita Marguerita (Registro de Turismo de Andalucia VTAR/CO/00051) is a cosy rural casita which is part of a traditional whitewashed house set in a hamlet. It is on ground level & has a bedroom with a double bed, double wardrobe and chest of drawers. There is an ensuite loo/shower and an open plan sitting/dining/kitchen area. The kitchen is typically Andaluz and there is a good array of pots and pans, crockery and cutlery supplied. The kitchen is freshly stocked with some basics like bottled water, milk, juice, bread, butter, jam and eggs ready for your arrival. Please note that car hire is essential.
Outside there is an Andalucian vine-covered patio and a gravelled garden set against a backdrop of rolling olive groves. A 3 minute drive from the main road and 15 minutes drive to the main motorway connects to the rest of Andalucia. The cultural cities of Cordoba with La Mezquita, Granada with The Alhambra and the Sierra Nevada, Sevilla and its Giralda, Alcala la Real in Jaen Province with La Mota Fortress, Guadix and its cavehouses, Malaga and the Costa del Sol and spectacular Ronda are within easy distances for day trips.
A short walk will take you to the local bar/restaurant and the shop for those emergency supplies. Main amenities can be found in the village of Tapia which is a 5 minutes drive south from here or the village of Iznajar which is a 10 minutes drive north. Both villages also have their own municipal pools which are operational during the summer months of July and August. Lake Iznajar and its beach Valdearenas is only a 10-minute journey away. Pack a picnic or bring a book to spend a lazy afternoon by the beach from the hustle and bustle...parking is anywhere you can find a space on the beach!
Come and experience the hospitality of the Andalucians which is well known and the cultural sites of Andalucia which are well documented.
If you are nature lovers, go for long walks in La Subbetica, the Poniente Granadi�o or the Comarca M�laga and take your binoculars with you and watch and count the different species of birds. Pack a picnic and eat lunch sitting amongst the unique landscape of El Torcal. Spend a day in Granada City and imagine what life was like during the days of the Moors in La Alhambra. Absorb the heady scent of the orange blossoms in the Patios de los Naranjos of La Mezquita in Cordoba City. Meander the streets of the Old Jewish Quarters and treat yourselves to tea and sweets in one of the many quaint teashops. Go and see the cavehouses in Guadix and head towards a local market or "mercadilla" and see how the locals talk passionately about the quality of fruits and vegetables. Have tapas at a typical bar and mingle with the locals chatting noisily away and playing cards. Sit in one of the many cafeterias on the cliffs of Ronda and marvel at the commanding bridge while sipping your cafe con leche. Lose yourselves in the spectacle of the thousands of flamingos at the Laguna de Fuente de Piedra. Savour the delight of freshly fried churros dipped in sweet sticky hot chocolate for a breakfast date with the locals in a restaurant/bar. Wander around the streets of Sevilla City and feel the "duende" of the gypsies of bygone days in the air, and reward yourselves watching a flamenco dance. Be inspired by Washington Irving and follow his route or the Route of the Caliphs and compare the characteristics of the different white villages and baroque towns like Zuheros and Priego de Cordoba.....all these and more to do in rural inland Andalucia.
And when you are exhausted from your outings, stay in with a glass of crianza in the patio under the vines with a good book or soak in some sun sitting out on the gravelled garden to rejuvenate yourselves before heading home. You will find yourselves thoroughly refreshed after your stay here and perhaps even planning the next trip back to the region!
