Fine Dining
At our Rural Country Hotel near Malaga, we believe food is an integral part of any holiday. We have gathered an incredible range of recipes from around the world, which introduces our guests to an amazing gastronomy experience. Our Spanish Nights bring together Tapas from all regions of Spain, together with main dishes from Andalucia, Valencia, and Basque region. Our midweek Set Menus provide a rare opportunity to get a taste of unique starters, main courses and deserts. At Cortijo Valverde Rural Hotel we do not do anything in half-measures and that includes our Deserts! (Click here to see what the press say about our food!) 
Breakfast
Our room rates include breakfast and we aim to give you the perfect start to your day. Breakfast is a leisurely affair with a choice of cereals, yogurts, fresh fruit juice, local charcuterie, fruit and traditional English cooked dishes, accompanied by a variety of bread, toast and croissants.
Lunches
Lunches are available each day and include freshly prepared sandwiches, hot baguettes, salads, and various local dishes.
Dinner
Dinner is served for guests every evening except Sundays. Guests can savour a pre-dinner drink on the terrace and compare notes on the day's activities, or "inactivities" as the case may be, while the finishing touches are added to a delicious dinner. Secret ingredients of our homemade meals are the fresh produce brought in daily from the local shops, farms and specialists vendors.
During the busy periods we offer set meals on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays (Spanish Night), which are taken in the "Dinner Party" format with all inclusive prices for pre-dinner drinks, Tapas, starter, main course, desert, still water and coffee/tea. Tuesdays and Thursdays we offer a selection of meals and on Saturdays we offer a Grill Menu.
Sundays is a day of rest for the Kitchen and Caroline, but it is a great opportunity to try the local restaurants and see the traditional Spanish Sunday family outing. Sundays are a special day in Spain where families and friends get together and often eat out in big groups with at least three generations present. It is an experience not to be missed.
