Cortelazor is a sleepy village in a most beautiful rural area of Andalusia. It has all the character you would expect including the stork in the church tower. Important for walking holidays, it is linked to other villages by a series of pathways that for centuries allowed travel from one town to another.

Lola took care to coordinate with the local bars and restaurants to make sure the hungry hikers were well cared for at dinner time and she created delightful breakfasts to prepare us for the coming day's amazingly beautiful and interesting walks. I'm certain that all her guest,regardless of their purpose of travel have similar, very positive and memorable experiences...

The next morning we had a delicious breakfast and she prepared us an amazing picnic lunch for our day's adventure. I would highly recommend staying in this beautiful establishment with such a...
