While many travelers never leave the beaches of Costa del Sol or the luxury of Sotogrande, we’re heading off the beaten path to explore a true hidden gem. In this video, we step back in time at the historic Castillo de Castellar, a medieval fortress that is still inhabited today!

In this video, we explore Castellar de la Frontera, Cadiz, a truly unique white village built inside a medieval castle in Andalucia, southern Spain.
Sitting high above a stunning reservoir, Castellar offers breathtaking views across the countryside towards African continent, Morocco, Gibraltar, Sotogrande, Costa del Sol and even other famous pueblos blancos like Casares and Gaucin.

We walk through the historic castle of Castellar, learn about its fascinating history, explore the ancient Roman path and show why this village is often considered one of the most beautiful pueblos blancos in Spain.
We also visit a spectacular sunset viewpoint overlooking the reservoir, before heading to the nearby Monasterio La Almoraima, a historic monastery and hotel surrounded by nature.

Located just a short drive from the Spanish coast of Costa del Sol (Malaga) and Gibraltar, Castellar de la Frontera, in the province of Andalucia, Cadiz, is a perfect day trip or hidden escape for anyone visiting southern Spain — especially if you love castles, history and authentic Spanish villages.

If you’re interested in Andalucia travel, hidden villages in Spain, Spanish castles, or discovering places beyond the usual Costa del Sol hotspots, this one’s for you.
