It is a truely relaxing part of the country where tradition still holds firm in the lifestyle of the village inhabitants. In the mornings you will hear the shepherds taking their goats and sheep into the mountains to graze and old men still use their donkeys to carry goods through the narrow streets.
There are several larger towns nearby providing a larger choice of facilities and nightlife. The coast is only around 45 minutes away with a huge variety of beaches set in secluded coves and quaint marina villages to established beach resorts such as Roquetas de Mar, Almerimar and Almeria.

Casa Escocia is situated in the traditional white pueblo village of Nechite (Valor), which is in Las Alpujarras region of Granada. A beautiful, mystical, mountainous region in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range.
Granada city with its incredible Alhambra Palace is only 1.5 hours away and the Sierra Nevada ski resort is approximately a 2 hour drive away. The smaller fun resort of Puerto de la Ragua is only about 20 mins drive away where you can enjoy cross country skiing, dog sledding and sledging among the activities.
Mountain bikers and walkers simply need to walk out of the front door to be in the Sierra Nevada national park. The famous GR7 trail passes the front of Casa Escocia and many trails lead from the house high into the mountains.
The coast is only a 45 min drive with a variety of beaches and resorts stretching along the Costa Tropical and Costa Almeria to choose from.
Local bars and restaurants serve tapas all day long with a good number to choose from. There are a couple of small local shops in the village but a short drive will take you to several larger towns and cities with all the shopping malls and nightlife you would expect. |
