This month (I should see) two lovely new additions here on Only Spain. Two beautiful small B&Bs/hotels, sometimes it´s very hard to differentiate between them both.

Now we´re nearly halfway through November, I can´t believe it, it´s still warm here. A bit too warm really, what we need is rain. Ever since we put the wood burner in many years ago November 1st has been official lighting day. Sometimes we try and postpone lighting it in the evening to wait for that day. This year we haven´t given it a thought at all. It´s just starting to get dark as I write (18:12) and I´ve got short sleeves on and the conservatory door open.

I admit I´ve not long been back after walking the dogs and am cooling rapidly – shall I put a jumper on or close the door? Hmm.

Because I´ve been busy at work (did you know I´m an estate agent in Jaén and I love my job) and with a writing project for Lonely Planet. What a huge learning curve that was. I am happy to say the edits are now done and I can breathe more freely! That has meant I am behind here on Only Spain.

The two charming places I stayed at haven´t made it here yet – soon I promise. If you fancy popping over to Luxury Spain Travel (LST) you can read about my stay at the five-bedroom Malaga Hills Boutique & Wellness B&B .

The other beautiful small hotel is the six-bedroom Casa Olea in Cordoba province, which, rather naughtily, I haven´t written about here or on LST yet. I´m sure it will happen soon if the rest of this month slows down a bit.

See all our places to stay in Malaga province or in Cordoba province.

Update – Malaga Hills B&B is now on Only Spain.
