Further details
The ancient Moorish village of Sella (419m/1375ft above sea level), sheltered by the Sierra Aitana (1557m/5108ft) and 16km from the coast, is crowned by what was a Moorish fortress and is now a small hilltop chapel called the Ermita de Santa Bárbara. It is well worth the climb for fantastic views of the Sella valley almond terraces with the sea in the distance and the spectacular Puig Campana Mountain (1408m/4619ft). The water is clean and pure, the people friendly and the mountains and surrounding countryside breathtakingly beautiful.
Although Sella is a small village, about 600 inhabitants, there are two wood oven bakeries (open 7 mornings a week), a butcher and supermarket, a visiting fishmonger, two banks and an open air swimming pool. There is also a small market in the Plaza Mayor on Wednesdays and Fridays. Local produce includes honey, wine, almonds, olives, lemons, oranges, olive oil and a variety of sausages and salamis (embutidos). Lunch is the main meal of the day in Spain and therefore, away from the tourist resorts, you are more likely to find better value meals at lunchtime (menú del día) than in the evenings, when most restaurants offer a la carte. There are six bars/restaurants in Sella.
