Our B&B is situated in the beautiful nature of Andalusia mountains, 10 minutes from the village Colmenar and 30 minutes from the city Málaga.
Colmenar is a quiet village on the edge of the mountains of the Montes de Málaga Natural Park.
In the center of Colmenar there are beautiful buildings to visit.
At the main entrance there is the monument Puerta de La Cruz which bears the coat of arms of the city and a beehive with seven flying bees above it.
Then you can make a climb to the highest point of the village where the beautiful Monastery of the Virgin of La Candelabra is located. Also from this point you can see the Tajo gorge and the Doña Ana gorge, as well as the imposing peaks of the Sierra Nevada.
