Description of the Ronda vacation b&b rental

Friendly, family run B&B, self-catering village house and studio apartment in the beautiful traditional village of El Gastor in rural Andalucia, southern Spain.

This is the perfect place for the independent traveller wishing to experience the stunning scenery surrounding the traditional white village of El Gastor. An excellent base for sightseeing and a variety of outdoor pursuits such as walking, wildlife watching, horse riding, cycling or just enjoying the Andalucian way of life.

Area Description

Also known as "balcony of the white villages", El Gastor is a beautiful typical mountain village with white washed walls and balconies adorned with ﬂowers. Located just above the shores of Lake Grazalema and on the edge of Sierra de la Grazalema Natural Park, the surrounding scenery is stunning and breathtaking.

This traditional village has several "sell all" shops, 2 banks, a post office, a pharmacy, 24 hr medical centre and countless tapas bars. The Thursday morning market sells everything from fruit to furniture.

El Gastor could not be better placed to visit the rest of Andalucia. Just 20 minutes from Ronda, the historic town perched spectacularly on a gorge spanned by the famous Puente Nuevo. Ronda is renowned for its beautiful Moorish architecture, one of the oldest bullrings in the country and the many Roman ruins.

Within 1 hour's drive are the cities of Seville, Jerez and the port of Cadiz with the famous seafood area of Puerte de la Santa Maria. Less than 2 hours drive is the world famous Alhambra Palace in Granada. Closer at hand are the magical white villages of Arcos de la Frontera, Setenil, Grazalema and Zahara de la Sierra to name but a few and all worth a visit. For nature lovers and artists alike, the Grazalema and Sierra de la Nieves Natural Parks boast exceptional flora and fauna and amazing landscapes.

A 45 minute drive south from Ronda will bring you to San Pedro de Alcantara on the Costa del Sol, only a few kilometres from Marbella and the millionaire's playground of Puerto Banus. Drive west and reach the Costa de la Luz with Tarifa at its southern most point. Popular with kite and wind surfers and with whale and dolphin watchers.

We had a wonderful time in El Gastor. It was exactly what we needed at exactly the right time. The quality of the room was only surpassed by the quality of the hospitality. We will stay longer next time.

Thank you so much for your hospitality and making us feel so welcome. Your home is so comfortable and the shower with the view in our room is magnificent. We made great use of the sun terrace - great to head home with a tan. Thanks again
