Winter Breaks in Andalucia, Spain
♫ “All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gr—” ♫
Oh. Wait. The sky isn’t grey and not all of the leaves are brown, because this is Ronda in Southern Spain.
But is the weather turning colder, greyer, and wetter where you live? If you’re starting to long for sunshine, why not book a winter break in Andalucia? Here are a few reasons why Andalucia is the perfect place to visit during the winter months.
A One Day Trip to Granada
The beauty and intricacy of the Alhambra Palace, glowing warmly in front of its backdrop of the Sierra Nevada mountains; the winding cobbled streets and colourful bazaars of Albaicín; the humbling magnificence of the Cathedral; and the dazzling glory of the Basilica of St John of God. These delights and more are why you simply must visit Granada. Wake up with the valley’s birdsong and take the easy two-hour drive from La Cazalla and spend your day soaking in the multicultural ambience of the city.
What is luxury? What makes La Cazalla a luxury villa rental?
What does the word ‘luxury’ mean in 2018? Do we overuse this word, in the same way that the word ‘awesome’ is utilised so frequently that now everything is awesome? As we market La Cazalla de Ronda as a ‘luxury villa rental’, we thought we’d take a look at what makes an item or experience ‘luxurious’.
Ronda: An inspiration for writers and artists, and La Cazalla: the perfect writer’s retreat
‘Retreat’ – it is an interesting oddity that the dictionary meaning of the verb ‘to retreat’ is to withdraw from enemy forces, to fall back after a defeat, to run away or to change one’s mind, attitude or plans as a result of criticism or difficulty. Yet the modern connection with the word is entirely more pleasant and positive
The crisis in Catalonia…
The crisis in Catalonia… is in Catalonia. Ronda, Andalusia is 1,000 km/650 miles and a world of difference away.
This is not a political post. Nor is it a comment upon what’s happening in Barcelona, as we are in no way qualified to appraise Spain’s political situation. What we can say is that life here in friendly, peaceful little Ronda in Andalusia is entirely unaffected by what is currently happening in Northern Spain.
