LOCATION
Casa Calleja is situated on the outskirts of the village of Benidoleig in the Orba valley at the foot of the mountains yet only 12kms from marvellous blue flag beaches. Set in an area known as the Marina Alta -with a coastal orientation and the mountains surrounding it from behind providing a microclimate with an average annual temperature of 18 degrees and an average of 320 days of sunshine, guaranteeing its charm can be enjoyed most of the year. The World Health Organisation states we have ‘one of the healthiest and most environmentally perfect climates in the world’.
Halfway between Alicante and Valencia, both with international airports and just a few minutes from the excellent AP7 toll road joining both cities (each about an hours drive away). Car hire is recommended to take full advantage of our location. Directions can be found on the map below.
FOOD & DRINK
Just a gentle stroll into the beautiful village and there are some lovely tapas bars to relax and take in the Spanish atmosphere. If its just a soothing refreshing drink and a simple snack, then the cave bar is the perfect place. Its literally 10 meters across our car park and you could buy a ticket (4 euro) to pop into the amazing tourist attraction caves.
