The apartment is in a quiet spot near the village centre with bars, restaurants, shops and the most beautiful little tree lined park which hosts the Monday market.

Area information:	Castillo de Locubin is a large village of some 8,000 people with a full range of shops,bars, restaurants and banks etc. There is also a small market on Mondays in the park which is 2 minutes walk from the apartment. Frequent buses run between here and the nearest town of Alcala la Real (pop 21,000), which is about 10Km away. Alcala is quite vibrant with a very good range of quality shops and a greater variety of restaurants and bars. Both Castillo and Alcala are on the "Route of the Caliphate" which is an age old Moorish route between Cordoba and Granada. To quote - "this route proposes an enticing adventure for the spirit, between two shining starsof the fabulous legacy of Andalucia". I have good books on the subject. The Route of Washington Irvine also passes close by, tracing the route between Seville and Granada. The nearby villages of Montrefrio and Moclin are given good mention as is Alhama de Granada, home to the famous natural hot spa which still gushes from the ground at 40 degrees celcius. At the other end of the scale we have the mountaintop village of Zuheros with its much visited prehistoric caves and restaurants with fabulous views. The village has played host to David Beckham and the Real Madrid team. We are therefore promoting Castillo de Locubin as a perfect base for exploration of the Granada, Jaen, Cordoba and Malaga provinces. The village is close to the borders of all of these Regions. To this end we have put together details of places and routes of interest all of which we have experienced. We would be happy to provide these upon request. No visit to the region would be complete without taking in the majesty of the Alhambra Palace in Granada or the magnificence of the Mesquita in Cordoba (see photo). The Sierra Nevada ski resort is also very close to Granada. The resort boasts the best snow and the longest season in the country (5 months). it has 60Km of slopes, 45 pistes, 6 off piste routes, 2 cable cars, 12 chair lifts and 5 ski lifts. It is possible to sunbathe in the morning and ski in the afternoon.
