El Gastor - Bed & Breakfast Accommodation, Andalucia
El Gastor Accommodation, Andalucia
Also known as "balcony of the white villages", El Gastor is a beautiful typical mountain village, in Andalucia, with white washed walls and balconies adorned with flowers. Located just above the shores of Lake Grazalema and on the edge of Sierra de la Grazalema Natural Park, the surrounding scenery is stunning and breathtaking.
This traditional Andalucian village has several "sell all" shops, 2 banks, a post office, a pharmacy, 24 hr medical centre and countless tapas bars. The Thursday morning market sells everything from fruit to furniture.
The area of Andalucia is noted for its walking, rock climbing, cycling and wildlife watching (notably the Griffon vulture, eagles, ibex and rarely seen wild orchids).
Activities on the nearby lake include fishing, swimming and canoeing. Horse riding, pot holing, ballooning and paragliding are available nearby for the more adventurous. During the summer months the village opens its municipal swimming pool with its own restaurant and bar.
