Description
Amazing enormous property situated next to Villena Castle. This is in fact three townhouses which are all now linked, with a labyrinth of cave rooms beneath that has been converted into a homage for the Moors and Christians fiestas. Open to the general public, this amazing place already draws visitors for sightseeing, and the tourist element of the property offers further potential for guest accommodation, a bar/restaurant, etc.
On the slopes of the Atalaya Castle of Villena, part of the old cave houses of the historic center has been recovered to become the first visitable cave in the town, decorated with elements from the Arab world.
During the 19th and 20th centuries, it was common in Villena to build cave houses in the upper part of the historic center. These were built by humble citizens, attaching the houses to the rock of the Sierra de la Villa and excavating limestone to shape rooms used for different purposes such as rooms and pantries.
The property’s combined size is approximately XXXX. For many years, it has been the base for a group of friends who take part in the town’s famous Moors and Christians fiestas, and is therefore already designed with hospitality and entertainment in mind. There are two large kitchens, various banquet halls, cave bedrooms converted into chill-out rooms, bathrooms, changing rooms, a large bar, and storage rooms.
Please enjoy the photos.
