SPAIN
On your Spanish holidays, you
will see that Spain is a fabulously diverse country rich in
history and culture. For your holidays in Spain you will
have the choice of staying near the stunning mountain
scenery and peaceful green valleys of the north or, from
your holiday villa in Spain, the sun-baked beaches and
lively resorts of the south.
Character, climate and geography are so different between Spain’s regions that you are sure to find a holiday destination in Spain that is exactly right for you. The weather in southern Spain is renowned for being warm and sunny which makes it an ideal holiday destination all year round.
Spanish flamenco, bullfights and tapas are particularly famous and of course each region has its own individual cultural traditions. Parts of Spain are known for their futuristic architecture yet it is also a country that boasts many old monuments in beautiful towns and cities such as Granada’s ‘Alhambra’.
The Spanish ‘Costas’ provide a playground for watersports enthusiasts or sun lovers alike and have plenty of attractions for families. If you are a golf lover, you will not be disappointed as there are many top class golf courses in Spain, one of the most famous being La Manga. The northern coast of Spain boasts some beautiful beaches too and they are much less crowded than the ones in the south. The northern regions are still relatively undiscovered and are full of traditional, sleepy Spanish villages which tourists stumble across whilst exploring the beautiful, lush green countryside and the Picos mountains.
