We offer two rooms, each a suite with private terrace.

They have individual personalities, but much in common: big, comfortable and well-dressed beds; great showers; stereos with access to a library of CDs; plus fridges and facilities to prepare your own drinks or snacks at whatever hour -- and enjoy on your own terrace.

At certain times of year we also make the whole house available to rent, with another large double room with en-suite, and full access to the kitchen and lounge. Please email info@escondrijo.com for details.

Hilltop Vejer de la Frontera is unique amongst the historic pueblos blancos of Andalucía in its proximity to miles and miles of unspoilt coastline. Highlights of the Costa de la Luz include the dune-backed sands of local El Palmar, cliff-top walks through the umbrella pines above Caños de Meca, the kite-surfing capital of Tarifa, and horse-riding through the surf below the Cape of Trafalgar.

The old-town of Vejer is a labyrinth of narrow cobbled streets between white-washed houses that are redolent of its Moorish past. Surrounded by natural parks and overlooking the hills of the Alcornocales, Vejer makes an ideal base to explore the beautiful and historic province of Cádiz, with Cádiz city, Jerez and Seville all easy day-trips. On clear days Morocco appears tantalisingly close across the Straits of Gibraltar.
