Where to stay in Begíjar
Begíjar is a small village, so your best bet is to stay in nearby Baeza or Úbeda, both just a short drive away and well set up for visitors. Try Baeza Town Centre for easy access to restaurants and a good base for day trips into the area, or Úbeda Old Town if you want to be surrounded by some of Andalusia's finest Renaissance architecture.
If you'd prefer to stay closer to Begíjar itself, look for rural accommodation in the surrounding countryside, which puts you right in the heart of the Jaén olive groves.
