Looking for a traditional Andalucian village in which to purchase Spanish property? If you are then Vejer de la Frontera in the province of Cadiz might just be what you are looking for. Vejer is a classical white village perched some 200 metres above a steep gorge, and is arguably one of the prettiest villages in Spain. The village was declared a historic monument of national importance in 1978 and is a faithful representation of how Andalucian villages were several centuries ago.
The jumble of buildings and secret patios assembled around the steep narrow cobbled streets are an absolute delight to walk around. Everything is immaculately kept, and there are very few traces of the modern world to be seen in the architecture. At the centre of Vejer de la Frontera is the village square with its wonderful fountain. It is flanked on all sides by restaurants and cafes offering a culinary taste of traditional Spain.
Vejer de la Frontera is only 10km away from the Costa de la Luz coastline, and so is perfectly placed to take advantage of the sandy beaches in the area, as well as the activities in and around Cadiz harbour. The Atlantic waters that reach the coastline make this area a hotspot for windsurfing, sailing and other water sports too. It really is a top location in which to buy a villa in Spain.
Naturally, Vejer de la Frontera property most in demand are the villas, townhouses and apartments in the white village itself. All Vejer de la Frontera property here is in the traditional Arabic/Andalucian style, with private rooftop patios enabling owners to enjoy the sunshine and unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside and coastline. In the surrounding area are new Spanish property developments offering apartments and villas constructed in a similar style.
