Golf Courses:
The villa is central on the Costa del Sol, which is also known (deservedly) as the Costa del Golf. There are numerous top quality Golf Courses within easy reach of the property including, Los Naranjos GC , Las Brisas GC, Aloha GC, La Quinta Golf & Country Club, Monte Mayor Golf Resort, La Dame de Noche (Floodlit), Finca Cortesin, Marbella Golf & Country Club, Rio Real GC, Guadalmina GC, Atalaya GC, El Paraiso and Los Flamingos to name but a few!!
Slightly further afield is La Cala Golf and Alhuarin Golf and the world famous Valderamma at Sotogrande is an easy drive away of about 55kms as is the excellent new La Reserva course. The new and old courses of San Roque, featuring ancient Cork Oaks, are about 60kms from the Finca, about 45 minutes drive away as is the resort and golf course of Alcadeisa.
Coast & Beach:
The coast is only 10kms away and offers a range of family friendly beaches, luxury beaches (Nikki Beach), disco beaches (Puerto Banus), and even a naturist beach at Cabopino. All offer beach bars or restaurants. A range of water sports are also available from the beaches as well as the large number of marinas and ports in the area including Puerto Banus, Marbella, Cabapino, and Estepona.
The vibrant and throbbing port of Puerto Banus is only 9kms from the finca and offers international shopping alongside bustling ethnic markets and an outstanding range of bars, restaurants and nightclubs. The cosmopolitan town of Marbella is only 10kms away offering some of the best shopping in Southern Spain. The cobbled streets and alleyways around it's world famous Plaza de Naranjos (Orange Square) offer ethnic goods alongside haut couture. The Square itself has a range of excellent restaurants with many more nearby.
Activities:
Eventhough the villa is close to Marbella & Puerto Banus, it's rural position in the surrounding country area offers easy access to a range of diverse amenities and facilities. It is on the Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park (declared a UNESCO Biosphere) and offers easy and challenging walks as well as horse riding and guided jeep and quad bike tours. The countryside offers an incredible range of spring flowers, fauna and wildlife including Golden Eagles, Ibex, and wild boars. We have private access to the reservoir which offers swimming, kayaking and good carp fishing.
The house is about 2 hours drive from Granada with it's internationally renowned Alhambra Palace as well as the Sierra Nevada skiing area which enjoys good snow conditions from December to late March. It is one of the few places in the world where you can ski in the morning and be water skiing from the beach in the afternoon!
