La Florina
In the hills above Alicante, La Florina overlooks the village of Busot with its Moorish castle and fresh morning bread just 2 km away. From its secluded grounds, it enjoys breathtaking views of the Sierra del Cabezon mountains and, to the south, Alicante and the coast. At dusk, on a walk or drive, take a look to the south west and see the stunning mountain ranges one behind the other. At the same time, watch out for the herdsman and his gorgeous goats! La Florina is well placed to visit the almond-growing and Turron-making Jijona area, mountain springs of Torre Manzanas, lush country on the plateau west of Alcoy and numerous Moorish castles to the west. The luxury Bonalaba golf resort and spa is just a short drive away. Then there's the extravagant shopping of Alicante, the shoe mecca and palm groves of Elche, the promenades, marinas, sandy beaches and outdoor markets of Campello, San Juan and Alicante, all of which have their colourful fiestas through the year. Don't miss the fantastic fireworks at the Moors and Christians festivals.
