Visit Valencia for its fiestas, fantastic sights, history and food. The Fallas celebrations in March are amazing. As for food - this has to be where you try the Valencian paella.
The drive to Valencia is approx one hour - we recommend you "let the train take the strain" from Xeraco - a short easy drive from La Sella.
The trains are modern, comfortable, cheap and the journey itself is interesting - taking you through the Valencian orange groves, vineyards and paella rice paddy fields.
The train station is next to the famous bull ring and about 400m from the colourful indoor market.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apart from the golf and spa there are other excellent activities at La Sella.
The La Sella tennis club boasts eight courts - five clay and three artificial grass.
Expert tuition is available from one of Europe’s top coaches, Luis Wyche. Spanish Davis Cup Captain Jordi Arrese said ‘The Power System’ thatLuis uses is “vastly superior to any conventional method”. Luis has been described as “Europe’s best kept secret.”
Both private and group lessons are available and it is not necessary to be of the same level in order to be coached in the same group – ideal for a family tennis holiday. Markets
