Although the setting is rural, only 5 minutes drive away in the small hamlet of Pastelero there are two excellent bar/restaurants serving a wide range of delicious Spanish dishes, and a bakery. Villanueva de la Concepcion is 10 minutes away in one direction while at the same distance in the other Almogia clings precariously to a hillside. Both villages have many small shops, bars and restaurants. There are markets in Villanueva on Monday mornings and in Almogia on Tuesdays. The magnificent El Torcal national park, just above Villanueva , offers walking routes around and between intriguing rock formations. Twenty minutes away on the other side of El Torcal is the historic town of Antequera with its magnificent architecture, many fine churches, Moorish castle, Dolmen caves, Roman ruins, bullring, shops and golf course. The Antequera-Malaga motorway is 15 minutes away with easy routes to Granada, Cordoba, Seville, Ronda and the coastal beaches. Malaga is less than an hour away.
