Spanish people here are very friendly to foreigners coming to live or vacation in their village and make you feel very welcome. Their are many places of interest within driving distance. They include the underground caves at Nerja, the city of Malaga which has been transformed in recent years since the opening of the Picasso museum in 2003. The city of Granada, home of the Alhambra Palace and flamenco along with winter Skiing makes a visit a great option (95 miles from Finca A Coruna most on motoway.) This historic cities of Cordoba and Seville are both within an easy drive. As they say smile your in Spain.

Competa is situated in Axarquia, the coastal province east of Malaga. Competa is set some 600 metres above sea level in the Sierra Almijara, the snow capped range of mountains between Malaga & Granada, that stretch down to the warm Mediterranean. Nestled in the mountains and surrounded by olive groves and almond blossoms, Competa offers the hospitality of the Andalusians who gladly share with you their leisurely lifestyle.

The local climate produces more than 300 sunny days a year and temperatures are pleasant all year round.

The village is surrounded by a 4,000 hectares wide wildlife reserve, the Sierra Almijara, with peaks as high as 2,068 metres. A stunningly beautiful natural park where you can go for walks to encounter mountain goats, eagles and a very rich vegetation.

Yet, the sandy beaches and coastal villages of Axarquia are also very near. Competa has 35 bars and restaurants offering excellent tapas and meals at low prices.

Both villages are served very well with Supermarkets and splendid gift shops.
