The town of Monforte del Cid, which is close by, is situated in the middle of the Vinalopo region and is world renowned for its dessert grapes. It is also famous for its local production of aniseed flavoured drinks, spirits, liqueurs and aperitifs. Monforte del Cid has many historic attractions, including the Iberian Bull and the remains of a large Roman village. These are to be seen in the local museum.
The mountain retreat of Orito is also nearby and is noted for an apparition by the Virgin Mary in 1555. This led to the popular devotion of San Pascual Bailón, the pastor of Monforte del Cid. The natural spring (Fuente Santa) is renowned for its medicinal properties. Orito celebrates the feast of San Pascual on the 17th May and that of the Virgin of Orito on the 8th September.
The area offers magnificent panoramic views of the surrounding valley and the city of Alicante.
For those seeking a Spanish golfing property, this location offers a mix of sporting, historical and cultural interests.
