The Community of Valencia comprises the three provinces of Castellon, Valencia and Alicante. They enjoy an excellent year round climate with hot summers and mild winters, and a variety of scenery and terrain.

The area west of Valencia City, where most of our properties are situated, is hilly but not mountainous, with many plantations of fruit trees, grape vines, and sections covered with pine trees. Unlike much of Spain it is very green, with some wonderful panoramas, enjoying an excellent micro-climate.

Valencia itself, capital of the whole region, is a thriving, modern city, but with a historic centre which needs plenty of time to explore: Fine buildings such as the Cathedral, the Miguelete, Serranos and Quart towers, the ancient Silk Exchange, and the beautiful palace of the Marquis of Dos Aguas. Valencia boasts several Art and Cultural Galleries, as well as Art and Science Museums. There are numerous public gardens, and the old course of the river Turia has been converted into a park 10 km. long.

The climate, the cuisine, the Mediterranean and beaches, plus many sporting and other entertainments, all combine to make Valencia a very attractive and lively city.
