Location

Interior Alicante

Mountain country above Ibi, inland from the Costa Blanca and within reach of both Alicante and Valencia.

Where it is

Above Ibi, in the foothills

The estate sits in the hills above Ibi, a town known for toys and marble, in the interior of Alicante province. It is a landscape of pine, almond and carob, dotted with masos and dry-stone terraces.

The coast is a short drive away, but the estate belongs to the mountains, not to the beach.
