GENERAL:
Puntalón 0.5kms has a small church, 3 simple bars and a restaurant. However, for everyday needs best to use Motril 3kms a thriving Spanish market town with excellent shops, numerous restaurants/bars, cinema/theatre and some nightlife. Also a large municipal swimming pool complex, plus family aqua-park in Almuñecar.
The owner lives in the Cortijo, along with 2 well behaved & friendly dogs. And is happy to advise on activities/excursions in the area, comprehensive house book & selection of maps/guide books available.
The Cortijo is both a convenient base for touring Andalucia and a relaxing place to unwind.
CAR ESSENTIAL.
CLIMATE:
Cortijo Nuevo, can be enjoyed differently through each season.
WINTER is short, December-February, often Sunny & warm by day - cooler in the evenings. Snow & frosts never experienced on the coast, temperature rarely drops below 55°f. Most chance of rain in November - possible to eat in the garden, even at Christmas!
SPRING late February - May. Temperature starts to warm, feels like British Summer - abundance of wild flowers/blossom on hillsides, evenings are light.
SUMMER June - September, hot & dry - NO rain. Although as the Cortijo is at sea level & very near to the coast, benefits from any breeze passing! Adopt Spanish hours, siesta in the afternoon - dine at sunset & stay up late by the pool!
AUTUMN October/Nov, rather like British Summer - can still be warm, cooler in the evenings. Excellent time for touring, visiting historical Malaga, Granada, Sevilla, Ronda avoiding the Summer traffic!
