Near Granada, this village is set in the hills and overlooks the Valley of Lecrin, renowned for its orange and lemon groves, fed by the springs of the Sierra Nevada. This is one of the most attractive valleys in Andalucia - where the donkey is still a familiar means of transport - and it occupies a prime position relative to the beach, mountains and sightseeing. Melegis is only 25 minutes from Granada, the romantic Moorish city famous for its history, flamenco and the extraordinary Alhambra Palace, 25 minutes from the beaches of the Costa Tropical, and 45 minutes from Europe´s sunniest snow peaks and the Alpujarras ( 'Driving Over Lemons').
Each season has its flowers in Sierra Nevada - almond blossom in February, brilliant red poppies in May and bougainvillea in high summer. The countryside is wonderful for walking, horse-riding, mountain-biking, skiing, birdwatching and golf, and it has the clearest skies in Europe! Along with the seasons comethe fiestas, the vibrant pueblo life
