The nearest restaurant is La Vieja Bodega which has been sympathetically restored and houses the largest wine press on the island. The Bodega offers Canarian food and serves over 150 different types of rum in its downstairs cellar bar, El Rincón del Ron, alongside beers, wines and cocktails. Also worth a visit is the Castillo San Miguel at Aldea Blanca, 5 minutes drive away, for an evening of jousting, accompanied by a traditional medieval feast. Around the corner from the Bodega is the museum, La Casa de El Capitán, which features artefact's from the age of the Guanches, the ancient inhabitants of Tenerife prior to the Spanish conquest. There are in fact several historical points of interest in the area, including the La Hoya settlement, reached via an ancient royal road from just behind La Casita Blanca. Walkers and cyclists will find that we are ideally placed for exploring Tenerife's varied countryside and natural beauty, the most famous being the Teide National Park (Parque Nacional del Teide) with its spectacular volcanic scenery. Walking routes information available on request. Shops in San Miguel and surrounding towns do follow the Canarian tradition of siesta and are therefore closed during the afternoons. Cafes and restaurants remain open and the local chemist is open all day through to 8pm. The supermarket in the main street is also open 7 days a week until 9pm, and serves a wide variety of goods, including fresh meats, fruit and vegetables. The Parish Church of San Miguel Arcángel can be visited. Next to it is the church square where fiestas take place at certain times of the year and dancing continues late into the night. Part of the fiestas include processions where locals dressed in traditional garb hand out delicacies such as gofio from decorated floats.
