Melegis holiday house. Spanish house with pool & garden; perfect for walking & sightseeing

Melegís: Lifestyle in Melegís is typical of this region. During the day, traders come and go in vans selling everything from fresh fish to slippers. The bustle of trading activity and shrill conversation every morning contrasts sharply with siesta time on a summer’s afternoon when the streets are as silent as a Clint Eastwood film set; piercing blue skies, dazzling white houses shut up against the sun, no one around but the dogs sleeping in what passes for shade. In order to safeguard our clients, we have registered both houses as Alojamientos Rurales with the Junto Andalucia in order to receive a licence to rent the properties. This process involved detailed inspection by local government officials with regard to suitability, health & safety, facilities and layout. Our aim is to support the local economy and infrastructure which means using local suppliers and professional services as well as being compliant with local, fiscal regulations.

Walking: As mentioned before, the immediate local area is criss-crossed with tracks that service the orange orchards. These offer excellent opportunities for evening strolls and not-too-difficult walks down to the lake and neighbouring villages. For the more adventurous walker on holiday in Andalusia, there are many footpaths in the Lecrin Valley from Melegis, Restabal, Saleres and Albuñuelas down into and across gorges, through fertile valleys and up mountainsides (i.e. Monte Giralda at 1,431 metres, the highest in the range to the South). Travelling by car the North East, there is trekking in the lower and high Sierras. To the East lies the much reported region of the Alpujarras; a long valley with scattered white villages strung out across the foothills of the towering Sierra Nevada mountains. The Alpujarran villages and towns offer endless days of exploration, sightseeing and walking and include busy towns like the spa town of Lanjaron as well as rustic villages off the beaten track.

Sol y Nieve is the Granada ski resort located in the high sierras to the East of Granada. The resort has a record for good snow all winter due to the altitude, with the best skiing during February & March. Anecdotally, one can ski in the morning then drive down to the coast and sunbathe on the beach in the afternoon! The ski village is around 45 minutes drive. The beaches of Costa Tropical are 30 minutes drive from Melegís. To the West, there are many popular beaches, some of which like Salobreña and Nerja, have interesting towns to explore. Marina Del Este also offers a range of scuba-diving activities including courses. Alongside the larger beaches, are many smaller beaches that are popular with local families and offer more natural surroundings.
