welcome to gaucín properties...

Hi, my name is Dianne Shotton ~ in 1999 I visited GAUCÍN for the first time with my architect husband and we instantly fell in love with this magical mountain village, with its majestic castle silhouetted against the skyline.  In 2000, we decided to ‘retire’ and leave our UK roots in North Yorkshire to live here.  After becoming intimately acquainted with Gaucίn and the surrounding area, I rekindled a longstanding interest in properties and spotted a niche in the market ~ and in 2009 gaucίn properties was born!

If you are seeking to buy a property in a prime inland location in the idyllic heartland of ANDALUCÍA, on my website you will find a wide selection of properties for sale in Gaucίn, the prettiest ‘White Village’ in the Serranίa de Ronda.  I offer a friendly, personal & professional service and hope you will take a moment to browse through my extensive portfolio ~ if I don't have a property available that meets your needs, I will do my utmost to find one that does!

Gaucίn nestles in the saddle of a spiny mountain ridge at 620 metres above sea level and is renowned for its spectacular views ~ extending across the picturesque River Genal valley to the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the Rif mountains of North Africa ~ views of TWO continents!  The area is surrounded by Natural Parks and offers a perfect base for following country pursuits such as walking, hiking, bird-watching, horse-riding, trekking, cycling, canoeing, rock-climbing etc. 

For those interested in history & culture, the medieval town of RONDA, with its world-famous ‘El Tajo’ gorge and one of the oldest bullrings in Spain, is only 40 mins drive away. The popular cities of SEVILLA, GRANADA, CORDOBA, JEREZ and CADIZ (the oldest city in Europe) are only a day-trip away.  There are also three airports within easy reach at MALAGA, GIBRALTAR and JEREZ. 

The COSTA DEL SOL is only 30 mins away, with several ‘blue flag’ beaches and world-famous golf courses, including VALDERRAMA, LA RESERVA and FINCA CORTESIN.  PUERTO SOTOGRANDE and the Santa Maria Polo Club are only 40 mins drive, and the hustle and bustle of glitzy MARBELLA with its magnificent shops and restaurants is a 50 min drive away.  TARIFA, the world-famous surfing resort on the COSTA DE LA LUZ, is within easy reach and from there a day-trip to MOROCCO to visit the exotic markets of TANGIER is possible by fast ferry.
