Casa Rural Las Chimeneas is an Andalusian guest house offering bed and breakfast holiday accomodation in Spain in the Sierra Alpujarras on the GR7 footpath. Alpujarra Tours offer hiking, birdwatching, trekking and mountain biking holidays with self catering or bed and breakfast rental accomodation in beautiful unspoilt countryside which is easily accessible from the airports of Granada, Almeria and Malaga and close to fantastic skiing and horse riding areas. Restaurant Las Chimeneas with its panoramic views from the terrace and welcoming fireplace in winter offers the very best of local cooking after a day's activity in the mountains.

Casa las Chimeneas is a beautiful Andalusian home high in the Eastern Alpujarran mountain range which has splendid views down to the typical whitewashed villages of the area and to the Mediterranean beyond. This is very possibly one of the most stunning undiscovered areas of Spain where life continues untouched by tourism as it has done for hundreds of years since the Moors first farmed their terraces of almonds, olives and vegetables irrigated by the abundant fresh mountain springs. If you are looking for a tranquil break in countryside which caters for anybody from the most ambitious walkers to those who would simply appreciate the beauty of the area to paint or to read , this may be an ideal destination.

We have lived in Spain for many years and our knowledge of the language, history and culture of the area combined with a love of the outdoor life means we are in an ideal position to help you craft your perfect holiday. For those who prefer complete independence route notes and maps for self guided walks are available.

Alternatively you may be interested in our menu of activities which allows you to choose from a wide list of exciting ventures which range from exploring the high Sierra and 15km mountain bike descents to a variety of workshops with local artists, stained glass makers and learning how to make soap and cheese. .

Whatever you expectations for a holiday, whether you are looking for peace and tranquillity or a special interest holiday in which adventure is made trouble free, we are sure that you will be enchanted both by Mairena and the magic of real Spain.
