They have a web site: Hondion De Las Nieves Ayuntamiento
You’ll find some useful info (in Spanish) such as opening hours, who’s who, telephone numbers of emergnecy services, local facilities and venues, local activities, Fiestas (festivals) and an introduction to the Mayor: Don Victoriano Sánchez Botella (PP).

It’s been a while since I posted on here. A long cold winter and loads of ‘real’ work to do. Anyway the summer is well and truly here in Hondon Valley … so what news ?
I am reluctant to share this snippet but I guess I am so happy to find a nice restaurant here… even if it is in the most unlikely of places !!!
Check out “Restaurante Polideportivo” (Sports Centre, Hondon De Las Nieves). It has a refurbished restaurant (owned and run by the council as far as I know) which specialises in Pescados (Fish) dishes. Having been just the once on a recommendation – I can also recommend it if your like shell fish / fish. However they do have meat dishes but their display fridge at the front is full of crabs, prawns, lobster and squid, to name a few. I guess it will depend on the day’s / season’s catch as to what they sell.
They have a weekly lunch (Menu Del Dia) about €12 and dinner menu (just friday, sat. sun we were told) at various prices. My party chose the special Menu del Noche … And what a treat, far too much to eat (although we managed it in the end). With wine it was about €28 each but very special and full of Spanish diners in the know. I guess the price may put a few people off but we all thought it was well worth it… I thin kwe were eating for over two hours and the service was great.
As for being in a Sports Centre, well we had reservations about it, but the restaurant is tastefully done and once in there you would never know were you where. You wouldn’t want to eat outside as you overlook the football pitch but we all enjoyed it and will be going back so the next special occasion.
Shhhh … but keep this one to yourself !
