Nestled between two mountain ranges, Albox is a haven of olive groves and verdant hills. This Southern Spanish settlement dates from medieval times, and retains a hilltop fort. Its villas and apartments are great bases for hiking and off-road driving in the countryside. Must-see sights include the 16th century church and breathtaking Estancias sanctuary. Albox properties benefit from a weekly market offering local produce and pottery. With summer temperatures of 30°c, the beach is just 30 minutes away. And the All Saints' festival is the highlight of the year, featuring a vibrant street party and traditional giant paella.
