In southern Spain, cave houses naturally maintain a steady temperature of around 19-20 degrees centigrade year round. This is quite exceptional in a montane climate like inland Granada where summertime temperatures surpass 40 degrees and where it occasionally snows in winter. Cave houses have all the amenities of a regular house and remain dry and habitable with normal ventilation.

The location near Cullar is a small village in central Granada of about 300 inhabitants. It still has rural feel to it, due to the fact that the houses are scattered around in a large area, rather than all built close together. And although it's just a small village, it does have its own medical centre, a school, a grocery store and a choice of three bars.
