In 2016 we, Ian and Andrew, left behind our London home to spend a year of adventure in Andalucia. Little did we know that by 2020 we would have bought and restored a village house in a rural Spanish Village and established a number of small, tourism-centred businesses.

We think we have found the perfect corner of Andalucia in Moclín and it is here we have made our home.

We have been made to feel so unbelievably welcome in this beautiful and hugely historic village. Almost as soon as we arrived we knew that we wanted to share our love of the area with visitors who want to immerse themselves in the culture, the history, the landscapes, the food and wine, the art and the music of Andalucia.

In the summer of 2019 we were adopted by the latest little addition to our family. Alfredo, or Alfie for short, was found abandoned in the campo near the home of some friends, and he rather quickly found his way into our lives. He is a jolly and friendly little chap with bags of character, and he looks forward to greeting all our guests with his infectious enthusiasm…

In June 2023 we are opened our second venture in Moclín, ESPERANZA 9. It’s a two bedroom self-catering cottage a few streets away from Casa Higueras. If you are wanting to stay a little longer (minimum three night stays) this may be another option.

We also write a BLOG about our life here in Spain it is called Two South of Granada Here you can read about the ups and downs of moving to Spain, recipes, and local travel tips such as where to eat and drink in Granada and out favourite tapas bars!

Another arm of our business is Property Marketing. Granada Village & Country began in 2020 marketing a few local properties. We are now an established Estate Agency with over 60 properties for sale in Granada Province. Specialising in inland and village houses with special focus on reducing the effects of rural depopulation in places like Moclín. If you are interested in viewing properties or would like to discuss the options of purchasing property in Spain, we would be happy to discuss this.
