Holiday apartment in Bullas: wine, history and nature

Bullas can be explored through wine, local history and the landscape in many different ways. The market for traditional products, El Zacatín, takes place on the first Sunday of each month. In February, wine tastings and tapas routes are also among the festivities in Bullas. The calendar therefore includes both a regular monthly market and special events centred on wine and regional food culture.

Wine and history

The Museo del Vino de Bullas is housed in a former 19th-century wine cellar. It once belonged to the Melgares de Aguilar family. In the Casa-Museo Don Pepe Marsilla, the bodega contains 57 wine jars with a capacity of 140,000 litres. The house also offers a journey back in time to life in Bullas at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Visits to the Casa-Museo Don Pepe Marsilla can be arranged in advance through the Museo del Vino.

Culture

The historical side of Bullas also includes the Villa Romana de los Cantos. It was an agricultural estate of the kind characteristic of Roman colonisation in rural areas. Its documented chronological period extends from the 2nd century BC to the 5th century AD. The Torre del Reloj, also known as the Torre de Santiago, was built in 1900 in the upper part of the town of Bullas. The named historical traces thus span from Roman antiquity to the local history of the 20th century.

Nature

Salto del Usero is a 3–4 m-high waterfall on the Mula River. The Paraje del Salto del Usero has been designated a natural monument since 2022. A ZEPA covers almost one third of the municipality of Bullas. The waterfall, river course, natural monument and extensive ZEPA stand alongside one another as separate components.

Hiking

Those exploring Bullas via signposted routes will encounter two different route connections. The Vía Verde del Noroeste crosses Bullas via a signposted variant that runs through the upper part of the town. The homologated hiking trail PR-MU 31 La Atalaya begins at La Rafa campsite in Bullas and leads to a natural viewpoint overlooking the town of Bullas and the valley of the emerging Mula River.
