Spain is one of those countries that’s totally different depending on which region you visit. I mean, it’s pretty vast (by
European standards, at least), with places like the Basque Country, Catalonia and the Mediterranean Coast being some of the
most stunning spots to explore. That being said, with so many, it’s quite easy to forget about some of the incredibly beautiful
towns in Spain that seem to be dotted all across the country.

To be frank, there are literally hundreds of towns in Spain and possibly more villages than you can shake a stick at. Now, I’m
pretty sure, we’ve all got some rm favourite places we want to see or explore again in Spain (I’m naming you; Barcelona,
Madrid and the Rioja Region) but don’t let that put you off seeing some of the other towns in Spain, that don’t always get the

Best of all, most are pretty easy to get to and lots can even be visited for a day trip from places like; Malaga, Ronda or Bilbao.
With that in mind, I wanted to share some of the most beautiful towns in Spain you really should consider visiting.

The charming medieval town of Besalu sits just an hours drive north of Girona, in the region of Catalonia. Honestly, Besalu is
just so quaint and lled to the brim with cobbled streets, quaint stone houses and a picture-perfect, Romanesque, bridge that

straddles the Fluvià River.
Once here, make sure to walk across the Bridge of Besalu to visit the castle, relax at Lake Banyoles and explore the
beautiful Monasterio de San Pedro. Also, while you’re in town, head to Amb els 5 Sentits, a quaint café come restaurant that
sells some of the best local wine by the bottle. It’s so good!

Frigiliana is a small and quiet town in the region of Malaga in southern Spain (About 8 km from the coast). Famed for its steep
streets, white-painted houses and titled steps, Frigiliana is one of the most gorgeous towns in Spain to visit.
There’s just something about the town that gives off a totally Greek vibe, too. I think it’s the whitewashed walls and winding
alleys that remind me of Santorini.

The teeny tiny shing village of Combarro is possibly one of the most laid-back towns in Spain. Trust me, you’ll see why when
you visit!
Located on the north-west coast, just a 20-minute drive from Pontevedra and pretty easy to nd. Head down to the sherman
harbour to check out the eet of boats and the historic huts that hang over the water’s edge.

Perched in the province of Tarragona, La Vilella Baixa is one of the more historic villages you should visit whilst you’re in

Catalonia. The village itself is around a 2-hour drive from Barcelona, making it a great little spot to see if you want to just chill
out.
Now, as I said, La Vilella Baixa is a village and you’ll be able to walk the whole perimeter in less than 25 minutes. Don’t expect
loads of things to do, or masses of bars and restaurants but, what it lacks in ‘amenities’, it makes up with plenty of charm.

I’ve got to be honest, Ronda is technically classi ed as a city but, in my defence, it really does feel like one of the big towns in
Spain.
Sitting on top of a deep gorge and cliffs, it’s said that God pulled the village apart when the locals wouldn’t stop ghting.
Thankfully, the village must have made up as they’ve now built one of the most impressive (and historic) bridges in all of

Spain.

Spend a night or so exploring Ronda, or take a day trip when staying in Malaga. For a great hotel, check into the Villa Padierna
Palace. Yes, it’s around 20-km from Ronda but well worth it.

Alcala is one of the smaller towns in Spain that’s overlooking the River Jucar, but don’t let its size put you off.

Calaceite sits just south-west of Barcelona and is a charming town, home to a grand parish church which features a baroque
façade, a museum dedicated to local archaeologist Don Joan Cabre and a handful of quaint restaurants and bars.
This sleepy town provides a stunning little town if you’re already in the region. After all, it’s only about 2.5 hours from

Just over an hour west of Bilbao sits the charming Basque town of Lekeitio that I love. Honestly, this little seaside shing hub
is as quaint as quaint can be, home to two great beaches, a boat-bobbing harbour and a tapas bar (that’s a locals favourite);
Meson Arropain.
Now, once you’re here, make sure you try a kalimotxo in one of the bars. It’s red wine mixed with Coca-Cola that I promise is a
real thing in the Basque Country.

You're so right Cristina. It's a gorgeous country to explore isn't it. Ahhh, we loved Hondarribia - it was one of the first towns we stayed
in whilst exploring the Basque Country. We stayed in this lovely farmhouse and ate sooooo much. the views across the bay (and to
France) are beautiful.
