Other Amenities
SALARES is a village of 237 inhabitants situated in the Axarquía region, on the "Route of the Mudéjar". Its most beautiful feature is the minaret tower of Saint Ann's Church (formerly a mosque), declared National Historical Monument in 1979.
The village is characterised by its whitewashed houses of typically Moorish design and for its steep and winding streets. This is a very peaceful village in the foothills of the Almijara mountain range, and one of the best-preserved in Málaga. It is located only 65 km from Málaga and some 30 km from Torre del Mar. It takes about an hour and 15 minutes from the Málaga airport. Most villagers are Spanish and are very welcoming to foreign visitors.
In Salares you can enjoy some time in complete tranquility and pursue open-air activities (like walking and photography) in the mountains of Tejeda and Almijara -declared Natural Park-. It is an ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
It is an area blessed by a climate which, with its annual 320 days of sunshine, is considered the best in Europe.
The majority of the population earn a living from traditional agriculture. Both the harvesting of olives and almonds and the wine treading, are still carried out in the old way. Mules are still used for transporting fruit and for pulling the ploughs.
The most characteristic indigenous animals are the hare, the fox and the boar. You may come across these at any time on the road.
Because of the proximity to the coast, you can go on day-trips to the beach (30 minutes away), and also visit busier places like Nerja (with its famous caves), Torre del Mar (where you can sample the famous fried fish), Marbella, Torremolinos, Ronda, Antequera... You can also make one day-trips to places like Granada , where of course you can't miss the world-known Alhambra-palace.
In Salares you will find "Casa Angeles", a typical Andalucian style house. It is more than 200 years old, and has recently been renovated. In restoring the building we attempted to preserve as much of the original structure as possible. The only modifications made were those strictly necessary for adapting the house to modern facilities.
Most of the furnitures have been refurnished and placed in their original locations. This permits the visitor to enjoy the house as it was in the olden days. “Casa Angeles” has been created for the enjoyment of country life and reproduces it with the greatest possible fidelity. This is not a hotel, nor does it pretend to be. However, a flare of luxury does exist here, with complementary touches that we are sure you will appreciate. The copper pans which were used for cooking have been returned to their place above the dining room fire place. The pitchers seem ready to be taken down to the river for water.With its wooden beams and reeds in the ceiling, its thick walls and its earth floor, the house gives you a feeling of having stepped back in time. However it is fully equipped for modern use. The open fireplace and electric heaters ensure that the temperature remains pleasant on cooler evenings and during the winter months.
