| For those who enjoy sport, there is a tennis court, 2 padel courts and local gym which offers aerobic, pilates and yoga classes. Padel is a great game – a mixture of tennis, table tennis and squash – played with tennis balls and a small leather racquet. Racquets can be hired at the club.
There is an excellent public swimming pool close to the apartment with a bar which serves snacks and offers pool and table tennis - ideal for a family holiday where children can make friends easily. A small swimming pool is available for children and there are well kept gardens and grassed areas to relax in. The Cerro Gordo National park is a short walk where an abundance of wild life can be seen with excellent panoramic views over the Mediterranean.
La Herradura is one of the few remaining unspoilt villages on the Costa Tropical that can offer a truly Spanish experience in a tranquil environment. The town is situated on the beach road with many outside bars and restaurants. Water sports, tennis, walking, sailing, horse riding and hang gliding are some of the many activities that are available. Granada, Alhambra, Las Alpujarras mountains and the Sierra Nevada are all within easy travelling distance. The nearest town Almunecar is 3 miles east and Nerja is 7 miles west.
| Boats can be chartered from The Marina Del Este. Day trips can be organised around the coast with photo a stop at a remote beach for snorkelling and refreshments. There are many tennis courts where visitors can play. Two courts are available on Los Palomas. One of which is attached to our Apartments in "Los Girasoles". Another is located at The Marina Del Este. These can be booked in advance and are inexpensive.
Three golf courses are within easy reach of La Herradura. These are not championship courses but are located in beautiful surroundings and are substantially cheaper than some of the more prestigious courses around Marbella. A typical example is Camp De Golf at Salobrena. This is a 20 minute drive and is located on the beach. The club house, restaurant and bar are all newly built. The course is 2 x 9 holes . The green fees are 22 Euros (£12.50).
For the family who would like to play a couple of rounds of golf while on holiday this is highly recommended. There are many local scuba diving centres. One is located at Pena Parda in La Herradura. Others are available in Almunecar and Nerja.

Comments from Owner Guestbook
La Herradura is a quiet and unspoilt village. There is very much to see and do. The apartment is situated in a beautiful and easy assessable location. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and apart from all the basic equipment you would expect to find in this type of accommodation, it also included; TV, Video, Videos, Books, Board games, CD player, CD's, Washing machine, Outside washing lines and a very handy large Fridge freezer. Quality comfortable bedrooms a lovely large balcony where you can relax and unwind in the evening and excellent parking. Our stay in this apartment was like home from home. For a family of five we had a fantastic holiday and would recommend this apartment to you with absolute confidence. If you would like to know further details we would be happy to oblige. Mike and Eve are a very helpful friendly honest couple and we were very grateful for all their additional help.
