Marmolejo is a typical sleepy whitewashed village nestled amongst the olive trees at the foot of the Sierra Morena Mountains, Jaen, Andalucia. No spectacular landscapes nor historic buildings yet this town is set to become one of the prime tourist destinations in southern Spain. Within three hours of six international airports. Seville, Granada, Jerez, Madrid, the recently opened international airport of Ciudad real (combined with a high speed train from the airport to Cordoba) and Malaga and forty minutes from the national airport of Cordoba. Marmolejo is ideally located for tourism. At present there are moves toward making the airport of Cordoba, 40 minutes from Marmolejo, an international airport. This , needless to say would open up this area to a two hour flight from Ireland.

There have been a number of court cases brought by different parties opposed to this exciting new development, however, all signs appear that nothing now appears to be in the way of this work coninuing.
