The Rural House Los Pasos is located in BIAR, a picturesque village at the inlands of the province of Alicante. Due to its priviledged location on the foothills of the Sierra de La Fontanella, Biar offers endless and varied options for the nature lover.
Biar is a special place. Its islamic history has given it a unique personality that is present in all of its acts: it is a hardworking village that also has many festivities. Due to this it has a lot of festivities and traditions that are celebrated all over the year (Moros y Cristianos, Setembre y Cólera...) and also different and varied products (nougat candy, dolls, ceramics...). With all this it shows us its rich andalusi legacy.
The Rural Cottage, far away of the hubbub, but still part of the town has amazing views on the sierra from the garden preserving by that the familiar intimacy and garanteeing the rest. The Sierra de Mariola shows the spectacular landscape of the Meditarranean woods (pinetrees on the hills and almond and olive trees in the valleys) furthermore it the biggest reservation in Europe for aromatic plants(lavender, sage, rosemary and thyme). A symphony of colours and smells. A enjoyment for the senses.
The climate is mild in winter and summer, the temperatures are mild with cool and pleasant nights.
To sum up, Biar offers a different option that the massified touristic proposals of the rest of the province of Alicante. It provides an original and suggestive alternative. Cheer up and discover it!
