Description

Located in the village of Cartajima, just 16km from Ronda in Andalucia, in the little known Alta Genal valley, the hostel benefits from local walks through resplendent valleys to neighbouring villages, with guided walks by a local expert also available. The area is a mountain bikers dream and popular with birdwatchers, artists and photographers alike.

The magnificent Sierra de Las Nieves National Park is just 10 min by car.

A delightfully laid back atmosphere awaits in this traditionally built 300 year old hostel. Open all year accommodation consists of a dormitory located in a rustic chestnut beamed room, with two double rooms and a private twin bunk room also available.

Cool! Fine Hostel in a very nice Pueblo, with very good english breakfast and fantastic, breathtaking view from the rooftop! you must stay there! — László Katona , Hungarian (2009-05-27)

It is a well-run hostel with excellent food, and the surrounding countryside is beautiful for walking or cycling. The weather is important, so book in the warmer months. — Ozzy Jeff (2005-03-28)
