If anything can sum up inland Costa Blanca, it just might be the drive up to Guadalest from Callosa d’en Sarrià. It delivers every time – a surprisingly green landscape under a desert hot sun in summer, clear blue skies and a stillness that you can almost touch.
Before arriving at Guadalest you’ll pass a restaurant and turn to your partner and whisper ‘that looks so pretty, wish we had booked”. So why not pull into their car park, pop your head around the corner and ask if they have a table available. The tables are laid with crisp white linen tablecloths, the food reminds you why you fell in love with Spain and the view, well…the view. Just wow!
