The property is in the Town of Ontinyent which is typically Spanish, in South West Valencia. It is in the countryside about 5 minutes by car from Supermarket/Bar/Restaurants and the main town is about another 5 minutes. You can get almost anything there. The property is not sprawling and easy to look after, having a good size Master with two other Bedrooms. Would make a great Holiday home or permanent home as we have found it for 10 years.
