Vista Algarin is a comfortable holiday home in a rarely found, spectacular setting. It is situated on a mountain top with spectacular views, in the Andalucian province of Cadiz, on the border of the Grazalema Natural Park. The area is quiet although not isolated. The cottage is located in a hamlet close to the village of El Gastor.
The commanding location of Vista Algarin overlooks the wild Andalucian countryside with its olive groves and rugged mountain peaks. The property takes its name from the close-by spectacular mountain from which the eagles fly. Vista Algarin is a truly delightful holiday retreat, which can accommodate 4 people.

Distances
You can walk to the village, which is only about 1.5 km from Vista Algarin; the spectacular views are worth it, but please remember that the walk back is up hill!
El Gastor lies just off the main road to Sevilla (80km) and the beautiful historic town of Ronda (25km).
The 'White Villages' of Grazalema, Setenil & Zahara are within 20 minutes drive. Cadiz (1hour 30mins), Granada (2 hours) and Cordoba (3 hours) can be visited by car, train or coach.
Further details
El Gastor is a beautifully preserved white village, which despite belonging to the renowned White Village Route is not over run with tourists. With its white washed houses and narrow attractively paved streets, it is a delightful, truly Spanish village.
There are several bars and restaurants where you can enjoy local dishes and wines, and you can try out your Spanish with the friendly locals when using the village shops and Thursday market.
There always seems to be some festival or celebration going on every month, so you can experience the rich Spanish culture all year round. Corpus Christi in El Gastor is a sight to behold, as is the village's week long feria, with its own unique flavour,in August.
The Ronda Goyesca with its Corrida (bull fights) and intoxicating atmosphere of 'fiesta, flamenco and fun' takes place in September. Ronda is a wonderful town, with Moorish architecture, old palaces and cool gardens, all making it a very beautiful destination - the ideal place to enjoy more sophisticated Andalucian gastronomy, shop in elegant boutiques, admire the lovely ceramics and be amazed by the famous gorge - El Tajo. Some would say that Ronda is best seen at sunset when the Andalucian heat lifts from the town and the surrounding sierra turns from bleached lemon to yellow ochre. The town comes alive with restaurants, bars and cafes buzzing.
There are many beautiful walks and an abundance of wild bird life in this wonderful area. Where else could you swim with eagles flying overhead or go horseriding through the dramatic mountain passes?
