Ron Potter, ex - 79 Bty, now running a house rental business near Granada, Spain. Lovely situation in valley full of orange and lemon trees, surrounded by National and Natural Parks. Walking from 2,500ft to 11,500ft, sea 25 mins, Sierra Nevada ski slopes 45 mins (Dec - Apr) and Granada city and Alhambra 20 mins. Great place to relax in the real Spain with little English spoken, so a few works of vocab.

You're right Ron It is lovely around there. Did a trip last year. The Alambra Palace is not to be missed or the views of the Sierra Nevada from there. Jan and I live further north between Murcia and Alicante. We love it here.
Next trip may look you up. There may be a few of us. (All ex 29) It will put a bit of business your way.
Nice website and properties.
Salud.
John and Jan Bathe.
