Andalusian Troglodytes.

I met up with Ian and Monique on Sunday, they live in a beautiful three bedroom cave in a small village near Galera. We haven't met up for years, since we both left the army but it felt like only yesterday, we got on so well. They put me up in my own guest suite in their amazing house and showed me the local area (bars). Ian took me on a 2 hour hike yesterday but we finished in a small village with a choice of hostelries. It was a great break and such a contrast to the previous week which I spent amongst the tourists on the coast, I thoroughly recommend getting away from the Costas, not only do you meet real people and see real Spain but the food is 400% better and half the price.
Ian and Monique's front door, not a hint of a three bedroom, three bathroom residence hiding behind those doors.
