The locals are very friendly and helpful and although most speak little or no English this do not seem to be a problem for visitors.

The village offers a wide choice of places to eat including bars offering tapas and meals,restaurants one being in the small hotel located in the village square.

The famous and dramatic 'Tajo Gorge,' (100 metres deep) divides the old and newer sides of the town, and is linked by an eighteenth century bridge. There are spectacular views across the gorge and out across the valley to the mountains. Ideally situated to explore other pretty pueblo blancos, towns and cities by car. Sevilla, Málaga, Jerez, Cádiz and Arcos de la Frontera, all under 1hour 30 min. Ronda has many wonderful bars, restaurants ranging from simple tapas to Michelin star, shops and the famous bullring and gorge.

Guestbook for Las Tres Fuentes
Las Tres Fuentes - April '09 The Forty Somethings on Holiday '09 Belfast I have stayed in many villas over the past 10 years and this one has been the best so far! The villa is well placed with a short walk up into the village - at least it's down hill on the way home after dinner! The villa is very well laid out and comfortable - with fantastic showers. The different terraces / balconies means you get the sun until it dissappears behind the mountain which happens late in the day - even at the end of April we got the sun until 19.00. The villa is well positioned giving privacy with no one overlooking the pool. The villa appears very fresh and new. The village has plenty of restaurants and Ronda is only a 10' drive away with even more choice. This area is most suitable for people wanting to explore a beautiful part of Spain - from our base at the villa we visited Ronda / Gibraltar / Marbella / Seville and went to the Motor Bike Grand Prix at Jerez. There are plenty of walks in the area although we only made it up one mountain, behind the villa, which has a small church at the top, with a super view looking down over the town. A great stay and a nice touch to have some supplies for us as we arrived. Also all the information Roz sent us about the area before we arrived was most useful. I would recommend this villa with confidence. David
Las Tres Fuentes, July 09 Susan S Sandbach We stayed for a week at this beautiful villa, which is located just a few minutes walk from the centre of Montejaque. Three of the bedrooms are on the ground floor and open out to the lovely pool area, and the master bedroom leads onto the terrace upstairs with gorgous views down to the valley below. The rooftop terrace was also a fabulous suntrap until the sun set behind the mountain around 8.p.m. Montejaque has several bars and restauants, and there are also some great restaurants at nearby villages, all detailed in the information pack which the owner, Roz, very kindly provided, and which was a great help in ensuring we made the most of our week. I would recommend this villa, and this location, to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday and a real taste of Spain.
May in Montejaque John and family. Hampshire A wonderful villa in a great location with stunning views. That's the quick summary. You could go into much more detail about the quality of the facilities and the friendly, helpful owner but suffice to say we'd go back without question. Anyone who thinks Andalusia is all about beaches needs to see Los Pueblos Blancos. Thanks again from all of us.
Great stay in Montejaque Aaron1 Ireland I just returned from Las Tres Fuentes after travelling with 6 friends for a 1 week trip at start April. The villa is immaculate with a great spacious living/dining/kitchen area that easily accommodated us all and never felt cramped. There are multiple terraces but the roof terrace wins as it has great panoramic views over the valley and mountains all around the villa and even has a hi fi system just inside the door to add some music to the experience! Roz (owner) was very friendly to deal with and gave us some very good restaurant recommendations - Casa Maria in Ronda is a must - a little hard to find as away from the tourist area but well worth the walk. Would certainly recommend this villa to friends - pictures on the website look good but don't begin to do it justice! Montejaque itself quiet when we were there but it is only April and still had choice of shops and restaurants which were much handier than travelling into Ronda - there is a big supermarket in Ronda if you need one. One word of advice is to try to take the inland road to Ronda as that piece of road from the coast at San Pedro to Ronda is a twisty nightmare!
A Great Experience Gsun Seattle, WA USA Six of us stayed at Las Tres Fuentes and had a great time. The house is on the edge of Montejaque, and it is easy to walk into the town. It is a small "white hill town," not the most charming of them but still an interesting town. We had good meals in town, especially at the hotel on the main square. Ronda is only a short drive away, but we went there only once. With a car it is an easy drive to Costa del Sol, Granada, and Seville, as well as all the white hill towns. The house has a great pool, excellent views (including a roof-top deck), and attractive furnishings. I would recommend it as a peaceful place to relax as well as a central location for exploring.
We had a fantastic time ErinIzzyTollyAmy West Sussex The Villa is beautiful and very well appointed, the layout has the three of the bedrooms on the same level as the pool with lovely doors that open out onto the terrace, great for adults and older children but may be difficult for those with naughty little escape artists! The description was accurate and the owner gave me further information when I booked. The villa was clean and well maintained, the agents in the town were very good and the owner could not have been more helpful, the info she sent us was invaluable. The area is amazing, so much to see within 30 mins drive, particularly memorable was Flamenco at Museo Lara in Ronda and the Pileta Cave which my 8 year old daughter was fascinated by. I would defintely reccommend this Villa to anyone, we had a fantastic time.
We are absolutely bowled over by the house.... we love it, so simple, elegant, bright and airy. We are in heaven !! R.G. Co. Offal, Eire
The house was perfect for us - you've done it with just the right feel - the views of the mountains are indeed spectacular. Cristobal was wonderfully helpful . B.B. Herts.
We had a wonderful time; we loved your villa!! It is spectacular and so comfortable. K.G. Alabama USA
We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and we would like to thank you for all the information and help you gave us. We will certainly recommend you to our friends. R.M. Surrey
What a fantastic break we had in your house. The 360° views are stunning; the best part for us was jumping straight into our own pool. M. V. Belgium.
Just wanted to let you know how wonderful your property is, we loved it! M. W. California, USA The house was lovely and so comfortable. We loved coming back to it after our walks. L.S. Gibraltar
