Opinions about Beauty Spots in Granada
I would recommend Granada for anyone
I have visited Granada many times and am always charmed by the warmth of the people there.
It is better now that there are flights direct from Manchester as we used to fly from Liverpool,
the bus still runs from the airport into the town, it's great.
If you love tapas you will love Granada, with some excellent bars and cafes and restaurants, so many to choose from. I love the choice near to the Hotel Navas, excellent !!
I would thoroughly recommend Granada for anyone wanting to take in a small Spanish City, with the stunning Alhambra Palace and Sierra Nevada mountains to visit, fantastic.
Fantastic place to visit
Loved visiting Granada, been several times. the city is a fantastic place to visit, steeped in
history it will always have a place in our hearts. on each and every visit that we've made we
have always been made welcome. The people of Granada are a credit to Spain and the Spanish way of life.
Sadly we can no longer get flights to Granada from our part of England (Liverpool and East Midlands) If flights were to resume you would find us on the first plane. So thank you to the people of Granada for making our visits so memorable (Cliff).
