Home description
Our home is a modern 2 bed town house situated front line golf to the new 18 hole golf course at Alcaidesa, with its own gardens along with large private roof terrace and access to landscaped gardens and communal swimming pool area. The house is one of only 42 on the small exclusive development at Green Valley, overlooking the golf course (front and back), with spectacular views over ancient cork forest to the mountains and sea.
Next to our home are the resorts of San Roque, Sotogrande, Valderamma and Alcaidesa which are known for their world famous golf courses, spectacular marina and first rate equestrian facilities (horse riding and polo).
Just up the coast lie the more developed resorts of Estepona, Puerto Banus and Marbella, while in the opposite direction you encounter Gibraltar famous for its "rock" and Tariffa renowned for its wind and kitesurfing beaches, along with its whale watching trips and excursions to North Africa .

The Costa del Sol/Malaga region
The Costa Del Sol lies in Southern Spain, covering almost 300 km of Mediterranean coastline and offers an unrivalled all year round holiday destination, with a minimum 8 hours sunshine expected daily for 320 days of the year.
In addition to the long sandy beaches along this stretch of coast, the area also acts as an excellent gateway to the beautiful interior, with enchanting hillside towns and villages with their white washed houses (pueblos blancos) dotted about the peaceful and picturesque landscapes.
The historic cities of Sevilla, Cordoba and Granada can all be accessed and if in winter the sun becomes too much down on the coast, a 2.5 hour journey inland to the Sierra Nevada brings you to Europe's most southerly ski resort.
Alcaidesa / Green Valley area
Our home at Green Valley forms part of the town known as Alcaidesa which lies between Marbella and Gibraltar and is set along the more rugged and far less developed western end of the Costa del Sol, enjoying beautiful Mediterranean views and good beaches. The house is on a very small development and offers a tranquill setting from which to base your holiday. Whether you want to relax and enjoy the sun, explore the historic sites, play several rounds of golf, horse ride, charter a boat, walk , windsurf or whale watch, the house offers an ideal base from which to access all of these.
Close to Home: You can choose to relax in the garden, admire the views from the roof terrace, take a swim in the shared pool, or wander down to the beach. There is a stunning unspoilt 4km stretch of beach (blue flag) close to the house with 2 really good beach restaurants or "Chiringuitos" as they are known with stunning views across to the Rock of Gibraltar and the Rif Mountains in North Africa.
Golf: Between the beach and home is prime golf ground, with the existing Alcaidesa Links Golf Course and a new 18 hole course designed by Dave Thomas due to open in July/August 2007. Both of these share a purpose built clubhouse making the most of the views, being perched on the headland overlooking both courses with 360 degree panorama and offering excellent practice, changing and restaurant facilities. Within 10 minutes you can access some of Europes finest courses at San Roque, Almenara, Sotogrande, and Valderamma or head back up the coast where in excess of a further 50 courses await you !.
Horse Riding: There are 4 top class equestrian facilities close to the house, San Roque and Sotogrande are only 10 minutes away and offer hacking, flatwork and jumping lessons. Sotogrande is also renowned for its polo team and competitions are held throughtout the summer months. Polo lessons can also be arranged.
Estepona is approximately 35 minutes away and offers some of the largest facilities, they too offer flatwork and jumping lessons and also hold regular dressage and showjumping competitions at weekends. Down the coast past Tariffa towards Cadiz is Dehesa Monteenmedio which provides lessons in eventing/cross country, showjumping and dressage.
Out & About Depending on the type of holiday you like you can visit the busier resorts of Estepona, Puerto Banus and Marbella with their shopping centres and many restaurants, all of which are only about 35 minutes drive away. Or drive south to explore Gibraltar and Cadiz or head inland to explore the historic delights of Jerez, Ronda, Benahavis and Casares.
Further down the coast (45mins) brings you to the town of Tariffa, famous for its "wind" and long beaches. The drive to Tariffa is spectacular and once there you can windsurf, kitesurf or sail. From here you can also take a trip across to Tangiers in North Africa or book onto a morning or afternoon whale and dolphin watching trip. Alternatively you can just as easily enjoy a coffee in the square and a stroll round the old town.
Provisions: There are a number of local restaurants that we have learnt of and the food has been excellent, these vary from authentic Spanish dishes served at a converted Cortijo, to local tapas bars and seafood restaurants.
Only 5 minutes drive towards Sotogrande is a large well stocked supermarket and shopping arcade which provides you with the option of buying provisions for a few home cooked meals or breakfasts, should you prefer to cater for yourself !.
How to get there
By Air: A number of cheap flights are available via Easyjet, Jet2, BMI Baby, Thomson Fly from most UK airports to Malaga airport which is only 60 minutes drive away. Monarch Airlines and British Airways also offer good value flights to Gibraltar airport which is approxiamately 20 minutes drive away.
Excellent car rental facilities are available at Malaga airport, which you can book on arrival, but in order to benefit from the best price deals, it is probably best to book online via the internet, prior to leaving the UK. We have found Carjet.com to be very reliable, with a broad choice of vehicles to suit all budgets and sizes of suitcases !.
