Self catering villa Costa Blanca

Costa Blanca self catering villa -private pool

Experience an authentic cave house in the Costa Blanca with modern facilities, half an hour from Alicante airport and beaches.

Nestled in the Crevillente mountains in the Valencia region, this spacious, light and airy cave house retains the charm of Spanish rural life whilst providing comfortably modern facilities

Lying in the Vinalopo valley, between the magnificent forested mountains of the Sierra de Crevillente and the majesty of the Sierra d'Algaiat - which enclose and protect the valley to the north, are the villages of Hondon de las Nieves and Hondon de los Frailles.

The mountains form a wide valley that invite a walk or cycle ride along many signposted routes, whether in summer, when you will experience sunsets that paint the sky blood red during the long evenings, or in the sunny and mild winter months.

During early morning walks you may discover foxes and wild boar and patience is rewarded by the magnificent sight of golden eagles and falcons performing aerobatics as they hunt for breakfast. Whilst at sunset eagle owls and their smaller relatives can be heard singing in the hills. The Mediterranean flora of pine, holm oak, juniper, rosemary, thyme, fennel and lavender fill the air with their scent and partridges, hares, rabbits and lizards may escort your walk.

La Canalosa is a small village located between Hondon de las Nieves and Hondon de los Frailles, being just a half hour by car from Alicante airport and the coast and 45 minutes from Murcia airport it is ideally situated for a taste of real Spain yet within easy reach of beaches and major travel links.
