Welcome to our selection of holiday homes to rent in Huelva, Spain.
Huelva is a city along the coast in the southwest of Spain, with the centre being quite pleasant and has several plazas and historical monuments because of its Muslim heritage. Main sights around the city include the Museo de Huelva, a museum specialising in archaeology and the well known Sanctuario de Nuestra Señora de la Cinta, the church which Christopher Columbus is said to have prayed at before setting sail and stayed in Huelva for some time in preparation.
Along some of the city's narrow streets are several shops selling clothing and jewellery as well as seafood and meat all made and caught locally. A shopping centre with department stores lies at the eastern end of Alameda Sundheim.
And perhaps of particular interest to British visitors is the town's Barrio Ingles. Victorian-English style houses dating back to the 19th century where the British miners who were working in the copper mines built themselves familiar housing with typical front gardens. Mock-Tudor semi-detached houses also line some of its streets. These British miners were also responsible for introducing the game of football to Spain.
