Notes from the road
Andalucia Insights
Southern Spain’s Andalucia region offers great weather almost year round. With hundreds of golf courses, prolific hiking trails, and biking-worthy roads, it’s paradise for active travellers. Great places to stay include the coastal Marbella Club and countryside Finca Cortesin.
In the region’s capital, Seville, the Grande Dame place to base yourself is Hotel Alfonso XII. Deep in the old town lies the low-key boutique property Corral del Rey. From the tasty tapas to the whitewashed villages, it’s a place I can’t wait to get back to!
