Granada Province

Granada province is characterised by extreme variables in landscape and climate, to the extent that you can even ski in the mountains in the morning, and then go diving in the sea in the afternoon. When you've explored the magnificent city of Granada, with its majestic Alhambra palace, venture further afield: visit cave dwellings in a desolate desert-like area, climb the Iberian Peninsula's highest mountains, and lose yourself in the region's rich Moorish history and fortified palaces.

Health Insurance

Advances in medicine, longer life expectancy, overburdened state health services and the rapidly rising cost of healthcare, mean that more and more people are turning to private health insurance. Indeed if you are applying for residency in Spain and do not come from a EU country, then you will need to have private health insurance.

Golf - Alhaurin Golf & Hotel Resort

Located in the mountains behind Mijas. While it has a magnificent setting with spectacular views, the course demands accuracy - or a bag of balls!

The management have made significant investments in recent years to make the original 1993 Seve Ballesteros-design friendlier to all standards of golfer. The resort also has a terrific children's par-3 course adjacent to the new clubhouse. Situated in Alhaurín El Grande, half-way between Mijas and Coín.

Puente Genil

The town of Puente Genil owes its name to the bridge that was constructed over the Genil River in the sixteenth century. A later bridge was constructed by Hernán Ruiz. Today it has about 30,200 inhabitants.

San Nicolás del Puerto

EU Free Movement and Schengen area

The free movement within Spain and the EU became effective when Spain fully joined on 1st January 1992, after a six-year transition period. The free movement of persons is a fundamental right guaranteed by the EU to its citizens. It enables every EU citizen to travel, work and live in any EU country without special formalities.

Casa 1800

Sister property of Seville’s Casa 1800, this three-star hotel is located in the atmospheric hillside Moorish quarter below Granada’s Nasrid palace. The hotel features a blend of period and contemporary: exposed brick walls and flagstone floors, with baroque furniture and tactile velvet cushions.

Muelle de Río Tinto

Muelle de Rio Tinto is a commercial dock used for the trade of material from the mines of the Rio Tinto Company Limited on the Rio Odiel. It is commonly known as the "Muelle del Tinto" but is no longer in use. It is however, a popular place for many to visit, and enjoy a walk down the 'muelle' itself or even to fish. It was declared of Cultural Interest in 2003.

Hostals & Hostels in Jerez

Jaén is a city that every lover of Andalucia should visit, enjoy and - if possible - spend a good deal of time getting to know. Not only does the city have an ancient and fascinating history, but the castle that towers over its winding streets offers some of the most quintessentially Andalusian views there are to be had.

Dos Hermanas

Situated to the south of Seville, on the N-IV old Cadiz road, Dos Hermanas is the second-biggest and most important town by population in Seville province, and the ninth-largest town in Andalucia, with about 120,000 inhabitants.

Via Verde of Vadollano

Finca Cortesin Hotel

A five-star hotel, spa and golf resort, Finca Cortesin on the Costa del Sol is considered by many to be one of the finest hotels in Spain. Most of Andalucia's landmark hotels - ones which are well known for their unusual or visually stunning buildings - are housed in historic buildings: old convents, castles or palaces. But a few are in cleverly-designed modern structures - though you'd never know it.
