Our welcoming, traditional-style Spanish home offers spacious and well-equipped, ground floor accommodation for up to five people, with 3 bedrooms and 2 fully refurbished bath/shower rooms. It has a large, furnished private patio/courtyard, as well as a roof terrace, both perfect for relaxing. Situated in the heart of the small traditional town of Castello de Rugat, it is nestled between the mount

ains of the Sierra de Benicadell to the south and picturesque countryside to the north. The location is ideal for people looking for a mixed activity holiday in a beautiful part of Spain, with lots of walking routes and cycling trails in the peaceful surrounding hills, mountains and countryside, and lots of different sightseeing spots within a short drive. Plus, with miles of beautiful, blue flag beaches so close, it’s perfect if you want to escape the busy cities or coastal resorts without completely missing out on sand and sea. Served by excellent roads, Castello de Rugat is perfectly positioned for trips into the Province of Valencia and the Vall d’Albaida, and exploring all this region has to offer. There are lots of natural parks and protected areas, some with wild swimming spots and waterfalls, historic towns, bodegas, castles and palaces. There are also 18km of magnificent soft, sandy, beaches to choose from. Of course, there is also the imposing peak of the Benicadell mountain – waiting for avid hikers to ascend. The spacious entryway leads directly into an open-plan living and dining area, each with comfortable seating for six people. There is a pellet burner for cooler weather, a smart TV, DVD player, stereo and Wi-Fi hub. The living room leads into the recently fitted kitchen which includes an induction hob, full oven, extractor fan, microwave, fridge freezer, electric kettle, toaster and a small dishwasher. All of the cookware, utensils and dinnerware you should need for self-catering are provided. Double doors lead from the kitchen onto a large private, enclosed patio/courtyard, which features a comfortably-furnished covered seating area and a traditional wood or charcoal fired grill. There’s a second dining table for six people, as well as outdoor seating – perfect for unwinding with some homemade paella after a busy day hiking.

Spain LOVES fireworks, these are from last Friday's beautiful display in Villalonga for their fiesta. Apparently the display on the final night was even better.

If you are in our corner of Spain next weekend this wonderful Medieval Fayre should be on your must do list....

Some great aerial photos of our village, Castello de Rugat, and our favourite local beach at Oliva.
These were all taken by one of latest guests, and fellow grandad to Amelia, Chris.

The fun, family orientated, fancy dress parade in Villalonga last night. Just a tiny part of their latest fiesta week. (Villalonga knows how to party 🥳🎆)

Daimus has one of our closest beaches. In summer the central hub is lively and buzzing, but at this time of year, you almost have it to yourself 😊.

Whilst we have expansive, soft sandy beaches, you can also visit beaches such as Granadella, just outside Javea.

Why a walk up the hill to the Ermita in Castello de Rugat should be on every guests to do list - it is worth the climb.

For foodies who like something a little different, we highly recommend eating at the Koaba Restaurant in the lovely little town of Enguera. Their 4 course lunch menu is just 14.90€. They also offer a tasting menu. Just remember to pre-book as they are justifiably popular. (The food was SO good we kept forgetting to take photos 🤦‍♀️).

Yesterday we took the family to Gorgo de la Escalera just outside the little town of Anna. It is a beautiful, hidden little valley and we virtually had it to ourselves.

If you visit, why not bring a picnic. Also, if you like hiking and exploring, you could easily spend a day here enjoying all the waterfalls and walks.

The Ducal Palace in Gandia - beautiful and not too big 😉

14/10/2024

Gandia's beautiful beach yesterday. The sky was a little cloudy but it was still 24°C. Not bad for the middle of October 😎

We always recommend that our visitors have a menu del día at lunch time, especially during the week. In this area of Spain you can have a 3 course meal, with a drink, for between €10 - €15 per person. (So usually about £10 - £13).

We recently tried the menu del día in this great little restaurant, called Saona, in Gandia. It is definitely worth a visit. The food was fresh and tasty.

For those who have never visited the Valencia region, it has so much to offer. Why not come and see for yourselves....

This is why a small hire car is best when you stay in a Spanish village or town!

Are you thinking of planning a holiday but can't decide between a relaxing stay in the countryside and a city break? Then, why not have two holidays in one!

Combine a few days in the gorgeous city of Valencia with a stay in our fully equipped, self catering holiday home, El Buen Ocio. It is located in a small rural village, with great walks on your doorstop, and stunning beaches less than a 30 minute drive. Keen walkers can even walk up our local mountain, Benicadell, straight from the village.

What a fabulous start to the Castello de Rugat 2024 fiesta, a free concert by a great Queen tribute band, Keeng.

We now have over a week of festivities and events to come from a concert by the local musical band, a fancy dress parade, discos, more live bands, an inflatable party at the pool for the children, a paella party and of course the fabulous Moors and Christians parade.

Pou Clar, near Ontinyent

The perfect place for a refreshment stop, a beautiful little garden with good friends and a free lunchtime concert 🍷🍻

As always last night's "cavalcada de carrosses i casetes" (fancy dress parade), was so much fun 🥳🥳

Fiesta in Castello de Rugat, the fantastic 'Entrada de Moros i Cristians' last night. Nearly 3 hours of these amazing costumes.

Tired of the beach? Don't like sand? This area of Spain has lots of wonderful rivers and lakes where you can swim, cool down and have fun. This area is like a free waterpark and is fun for all the family. UPDATE: For those asking, this is on the outskirts of the small village of Antella, north-west of Xativa. (Go in the week as parking is very difficult at weekends and on fiestas, and take water shoes).

How to wake up a whole town (or valley)

There is no need for an alarm clock in Castello de Rugat this morning, after another night of parties this is how everyone is being woken up to re-commence the celebrations; firecrackers and a marching band (and its been going on for about 45 minutes now).
