Arcos de la Frontera is a classic white village set high upon an escarpment in the province of Cadiz, Southern Spain. Only 90-minutes from Seville, the village reveals breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and of the Guadalete River over which it stands. If you're looking for Spanish property in a traditional Andalucian village, then Arcos de la Frontera could be for you.
The village of Arcos de la Frontera runs along a ridge on the Peņa Nueva escarpment, and cascades down the hillside towards the valley below. It is a mass of gleaming white buildings assembled around steep narrow winding streets that ascend upwards to the magnificent Parador located at the highest point on the ridge.
The architecture around the village reflects perfectly the Arabic styles of the Middle Ages. Cobbled streets that are no more than two metres wide in some places reveal a calm and tranquil ambience - an ambience that is only enhanced by the Gothic-styled church and beautiful town hall, with its Mudejar ceiling.
For many, owning Arcos property is a dream come true! To fully experience the thrill of living in a Pueblo Blanco, terraced homes and townhouses along some of the narrow streets are highly recommended. Spanish property in the village also includes apartments and detached villas, all of which have been designed to compliment the surrounding Arcos property. A villa in Spain here is ideal for anyone wishing to retire in Southern Spain or to spend holidays in the sun. Income potential through tourist rental is a viable option too.
