The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region


This area of Spain is known for its long hot summers, warm and mild winters. Its coastline has some of Spain’s finest and most attractive beaches each surrounded by lots of restaurants and bars providing traditional Spanish cuisine and excellent Seafood.
Although holidaying in Jalon is a quiet, relaxing affair just a twenty minute drive away are the beaches of Calpe, Oliva and Denia along with the smaller coves and fishing villages which are dotted around. Also within a 20 minute drive are the busier resorts of Benidorm and Moraria for the more touristy attractions and theme parks. There are also plenty of shops and markets to explore.
The Jalon / Lliber area
Jalon itself is a quiet Spanish town with an abundance of local bars, shops/supermarkets and restaurants and it is a pleasant 10 minute stroll from Casa Barranco. There is a Tuesday local market and on Saturdays there is a massive, traditional Spanish Rastro (flea market/car boot sale) for the bargain hunters!! Along with neighbouring towns and villages, Jalon hosts many fiestas throughout the year which are fantastic to see.
Lliber is a 5min drive across the valley with more little cafes, bars and restaurants to visit. Whilst exploring the area you will find many restaurants and bars dotted all around the valley to sample the local cuisine – many menus starting from around 8euros a head including bread and wine. Talking of wine - the Jalon valley is famed for its locally produced wine, it’s worth taking a day to visit the local bodegas and sample some!
There are lots of various attractions in the local area including walking, horse riding, cycling and mountain biking, go-karting, rock climbing, golf courses in Bennissa, Denia and Altea…and there is even a paragliding school in Parcent for those dare devils amongst you! If this isn’t enough for you local beaches provide a range of excellent watersports and boat trips. In essence whether it’s a relaxing, lazy or a more energetic break wanted – the Jalon valley is the ideal location!

We experienced friendly helpful service prior to our arrival. Plenty of space, beautifully furnished - loved the kitchen! Private pool with lots of lounging space and not overlooked. Quiet, but close to nearby town with lots going on. Would definitely recommend and looking forward to our next stay! Thank you!!! |

Superb location very quiet and peaceful but 10 minutes walk away and we were in the village centre! we were in two minds whether or not to write a review because we wanted to keep it our secret, however we loved this place so much we had to let everybody know. As soon as we walked through the door it instantly felt like home, it had everything we needed and more. one thing we wanted to mention in particular were how incredibly comfortable the beds were, wow!!! Because of the time of year we went it was very hot but we popped the air conditioning on (which is a god send!) and we cooled down very quickly. The pool is huge for the size of the house and the view is absolutely stunning the house is truly and absolute gem, and the local village was brilliant as well, whether we fancied tapas or a glass of wine or a sit down meal there was plenty to choose from and surprisingly cheap. I can not speak highly enough of this place, or the owners that were great to deal with. I will definitely be returning next year!!!!! |
