Coín (ca. 20,000 inhabitants) is 3 miles away. It has all amenities, including shopping centre, cinemas, health centre, bars and restaurants. It is far enough from the busy coast to ensure peace and quiet, but there are regular ferias (local celebrations) and other activities.

A day at the beach, a night on the town, a round of golf, a visit to the zoo or a theme park? Everything is possible with Marbella, Fuengirola and Málaga all approx 35 kilometres away.

For those interested in culture and history, daytrips are possible to Málaga, Ronda, Córdoba, Granada or Seville. Gibraltar is only a 1.5 hour ride.

Directly from the cottages (with 2.5 hectares of grounds) you can take a walk to the Rio Grande or through the hills. Bicycling and horse-riding are also possible.

You can take beautiful tours over the tracks of the surrounding natural parks (Sierra de las Nieves, El Torcal, Sierra Prieta). Take a trip to the authentic white (Moorish) villages in the neighbourhood, to the dam and lakes of El Chorro.

El Sigiloso is a 45 minute drive from Málaga airport.
