a private holiday accommodation in the Guadalhorce valley
Finca Santa Margarita is situated in the Sierra de Gibralgalia in the Guadalhorce valley and close to Alora and Pizarra. Malaga airport is less than half an hour by car. Although there is a train station in Pizarra and Alora guests are recommended to rent a car upon arrival in Spain. Car hire in Malaga is normally not expensive except maybe during the busy summer season when availability is scarce.
The holiday accommodation, set in 5 acres of almond groves and olive trees, has been recently reformed and offers a capacity for up to 10 persons. The house has got 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and wireless internet access so guests can check flight information or the latest news at home.
The private swimming pool offers wonderful views of the Sierra de las Nieves and the valley of the Guadalhorce, the most important river in the province of Malaga. There are two areas for dining al fresco and a fridge by the pool to enjoy a cold drink on one of the shady terraces during the hot Spanish summer months.
Pizarra and other little villages in the Guadalhorce Valley like Casarabonela, Alora or Carratraca have a selection of traditional spanish restaurants and tapas bars offering the very best of the local cuisine.
The accommodation is ideal to enjoy a relaxing holiday, but guests can also practice activities like horse riding, hiking, canoeing on the lakes or climbing in La Garganta del Chorro. For people who enjoy a round of golf there is information available about 5 golf courses within 30 minutes by car from Finca Santa Margarita.
Culture lovers should not miss the Picasso Museum in Malaga or a visit to the Castillo de Gibralfaro, the Alcazaba or the Plaza de Toros.
