Catral showcases the orchard of the Bajo Segura with palm trees, orange trees and irrigation channels that water large plots. Country houses here are usually estates with stone walls, exposed beams and a fireplace, surrounded by garden, vegetable plot and land for a barn and outbuildings.
The markets of Catral and Albatera liven up the weekends, while Callosa de Segura or Dolores provide nearby services. The Blue Flag beaches of Guardamar and La Mata are just a short distance away, and the Natural Park of the La Mata and Torrevieja Lagoons invites walks and cycling.
The A-7 motorway connects to Alicante and its airport, making getaways easy. Cuisine of rice dishes, vegetables from the orchard and local cured meats complete a peaceful, sunlit way of life.
