Almeria airport is just over one hour away and Murcia airport one and a half hours. Both are easily accessible by motorway. There are budget airlines flying into both airports on a regular basis. Malaga is approximately three and a half hours and Alicante is approximately a two hour drive away offering a larger choice of airlines and flight times.
Although the property is set in a peaceful rural location surrounded by olive trees, it is within easy reach of the town of Albox, which is about a five minute drive away. The town has several supermarkets including a Lidl a Dia and a Mercadona,a wide range of shops,bars and restaurants, and a large street market selling everything from fruit and vegetables to clothes and household goods held every Tuesday morning. The small village of Almanzora is about the same distance, and has some small bars and two small shops, a farmacia and a bank. The small town of Arboleas is also within easy reach with a range of bars restaurants and small supermarkets and its own markets.
There are 17 kilometres of unspoilt sandy beaches in the area. Mojacar and Garrucha are 35-40 minutes drive away on excellent uncrowded roads. There are many small restaurants, bars and cafes along the seafront and well as children's playgrounds. Vera Playa is a slightly livelier resort with a Water Park. Mojacar Pueblo is well worth a visit, a traditional Spanish Pueblo Blanco high on the hillside with great views and small shops and restaurants.
An hours drive away is the national park area that includes the large fresh water Lake Negratin. There is a small lakeside beach area with a restaurant that affords spectacular views across the lake.
Families will enjoy a visit to the nearby Wild West theme parks of Fort Bravo Texas and Oasys. Due to the dry desert like landscape of Almeria, it has often been used to stand in for the Wild West in movies and TV Shows. You can visit authentic looking Wild West towns and watch cowboy demonstrations and shows such as gunfights and bank hold ups. There are also restaurants and pools in the parks. Oasys also has a zoo.
Further away but possible for a day trip is the historic city of Granada, with its wide selection of shops, bars and restaurants as well as historic sites such as the Moorish Alhambra Palace with its beautiful gardens and water features.
