Iznajar is a small town of around six thousand people located in theCordobaregion ofSpain. Some years ago now, a reservoir was created below the town in the valley of the River Genil, and this transformed not only the area, but the tourist possibilities for the town. Self catering accommodation in Iznajar is best chosen from the villas in the immediate surrounding area, to best experience this wonderful piece of countryside. A rental villa is equipped and maintained to the highest standard, and is just the place to stay if you feel like the occasional evening barbeque in a place that feels just like home.
On the southern border of the province of Cordoba, holiday rental accommodation in Lake Iznajar will put you in a typical 'white' village that is guaranteed to give you a truly authentic experience of country life, particularly if you choose one of the traditional Andalucian farmhouses or villa rentals - in Lake Iznajar, holiday accommodation of any description is full of the kind of rustic charm that many people crave as the ideal antidiote to their usual hectic urban environment, and when you consider how the sun always seem to be shining in southern Spain, there really isn't anywhere quite like a quietly secluded cottage or farmhouse rental in Lake Iznajar for a tranquil and relaxing break away from the same old routine of home.
Set amongst countryside where olive groves and vineyard-clad hills spread out around a vast and beautiful lake that straddles the boundary between Malaga Province and Cordoba, holiday villas, farmhouses and cottages in Lake Iznajar ma ke the perfect base from where you can investigate more than one region, and when you realise how much there actually is to see and do in the surrounding areas, you might prefer bed and breakfast in Lake Iznajar simply so that you can devote all your time to the countless opportunities there are for sport, leisure and recreation without having to think once about the kitchen and domestic duties that come with any self catering holiday accommodation in Lake Iznajar.
There really is an abundance of leisure activities to partake in whilst on holidays in Iznajar, many of which are thanks to the newly created lake. Here, it is possible to drive onto the "beach" and set up for the day. Swimming, fishing, sailing and windsurfing are all possible on the lake, and it rarely feels crowded. The "real beaches" of the Costa del Sol are just an hour's drive away, as are the SierraNevadamountains, which is a great place to hike and cycle. If a game of golf is more your thing, then a course is located just 40 minutes' drive away.
There are many places of interest to visit during your holidays in Iznajar. The town itself has a 1200 year old castle, although admittedly, this is in a state of poor repair, which is a shame. Better, perhaps, is to travel the hour by car to Granada, and visit theAlhambra, a huge palatial complex surrounded by walls and towers. It is a wonderful example of Moorish architecture, although it was added to through successive years. Assuming you will be hiring a car (and it is recommended), a day trip to Cordoba will reveal a picturesque city, with an old Moorish Mosque now used as a cathedral, as well as many fascinating streets to wander through. If you are planning to stay in September, you might like to time your visit to coincide with the local week long fiesta which takes place Enjoy the party!
