Small golf course by Grau, there are 2 Shopping Malls within 10 min drive with H & M, Zara, Zara Home, D.I.Y store Leroy Merlin, Decathalon etc etc. The beach at Playa Gandia is a very clean blue flagged sandy beach with beautiful promenade alongside with shops and restaurants in abundance, there is an evening street market and also a beautiful harbour and marina. It’s possible to get a boat from Gandia port to the Balearic Isles, an easy journey.

Gandia train station, it takes 35/40 minutes by train to the heart of Valencia city. Then from Valencia city hop on the metro straight into Valencia airport terminal so travel is easy!

20 min drive to Oliva old town and Oliva Playa (7 km long beach that is very child friendly and normally not crowded) there is also a Castle there and a Friday Market. There are many smaller village beaches stretching all the way down the coast for 12 kilometres and these beaches are generally quite empty at 3pm in the afternoons (even in August) when all the Spanish go for a long lunch and siesta. The Oliva Nova Golf course is only about a 25/30 min drive away as is La Galiana Golf course which is one of the prettiest golf courses in Europe.

Casa Bella is the sort of property you can just turn the key, unpack, sit on the terraces, take a dip in the pool, walk to a restaurant for lunch and a few glasses of vino and then have an afternoon siesta, spending the late afternoon enjoying the sunshine and views!

Fantastic hiking and cycling countryside through the orange groves (great for dog walking) as its mainly flat in the valley and there is also a large equestrian centre in the valley which is ideal for horse back riding through the orange groves.
