Exploring around, from Villaluenga del Rosario

Postby safa1 » Sat Jul 09, 2022 4:39 pm

Hi everyone

I am staying for a month in Villaluenga (see map attached) and while I am here mostly to rest and read, I also like to make visits to nearby places, especially for cultural and historical sites, and good food!

At some point, I will be making a day trip to Seville for some authentic Flamenco performance and dining, but I am also looking for recommendations for:

1. Good restaurants within say 45-minute drive - I have been exploring Ronda, which is promising

2. Of the many villages within a 1-1.5 hr drive, which are the most interesting to see (I realize this is an open-ended question, but your favorites please)

3. Looking for a good bakery to buy fresh bread and also a good produce shop for fruits and veggies (trying to find out about the farmer's market in Ronda).

Many thanks in advance. Also, if any ex-pats are around and want to grab a beer or espresso, let me know. I am from Palo Alto, California.

Safa

I cant help with that area, but good luck and have fun, you´ll love the laid back pace of life here.

As for bread and fruit / veg - go to a local supermarket, they will have it all there. Theres probably a lidl / aldi / mercadona / carrefour nearby.

Theres bound to be smaller shops that just do one thing, ie a panaderia for bread (which can be more expensive than a supermarket, although much better quality normally) and a fruiteria for fruit / veg. they are normally cheaper than the supermarkets.
