Sedella is a pretty rural town situated inland from Malaga city and from the coastal resort of Torre de Mar. Set in the Axarquia region, an area of outstanding natural beauty, Sedella sits on the Mudejar Architecture Route, and is an excellent destination for those looking for a rural retreat, not too far of the beaten track.

About town
Sedella is typically Moorish in style, with its winding narrow streets and alleys, lined with whitewashed terrace houses.

There is a good selection of small shops, bars and restaurants; perfectly sufficient for visitors needs.

City review

Sedella is a tiny mountain village, pop 300-ish, with narrow, cobbled streets, very picturesque. 1 hr from coast with nearby other small villages. Recommend a car. Village is very quiet, only two small local shops and a couple of cafes/restaurants. Good area for walking on mountain tracks or road-biking. But not much for a family or children to do, so may not recommend for this. Maybe more suitable for older couple or without kids. We visited the Roman Bridge , a nice 1km walk from apartment, most days, so kids could play in the river and pools. There were longer mountain walks available but too far for little legs!
