Bathed in sunshine for much of the year this Southern Spanish province is both romantic and alluring.

The coastal playground contrasts with the rustic whitewashed houses of the hill villages.

The countryside teems with orange groves and the high sierras are snow-capped all year round. The classical cities of Seville, Granada and Córdoba with their Moorish past abound in historical treasures.

All of our arrangements are flexible and STS are happy to quote you for any variations you may choose.
