 For those wanting a holiday within easy reach of the sea and yet who dread the prospect of an apartment block in the sweltering, busy resorts of the Costa del Sol, to the rescue comes “the illustrious, always noble, very hospitable village of Gaucin” (so it appeared to St John the Divine).
Small and pretty, Gaucin is one of Andalusia’s most popular “white villages.” It sits 630 metres above sea level with views of the Strait of Gibraltar, the Rock itself and Morocco across the water.
The climate is Mediterranean and the coast is only 30 mins away. |

 Girona is a handsome town, one of the finest and most interesting in all Catalonia.
Historic districts and viewing points from the ramparts, the cathedral, or the bridges over the River Onyar all provide rewarding experiences for the visitor.
The busy café terraces and shops of the old town and the Rambla de la Llibertat turn to relative silence as you emerge onto one of the bridges spanning the river. The façades of the tall apartment buildings lining the waterfront, hung with washing, shine in warm pastel shades.
It's also your stopping off point for the magnificent Costa Brava, chosen by National Geographic as one the Best Trips in the World 2012.
With its superlatively preserved medieval villages, gorgeous beaches, top-cass cuisine, Dalí museum, volcanic forest-lands. It's one of the classiest holidays to be had anywhere in Europe.
