Villa (6 + 2) privacy, good access, near the S. Tejada N. P., 20 min from sea

Villa (137 m2) with much privacy but not isolated, in the foothills of the Sierra Tejada National Park.

Facing south with amazing uninterrupted views (Lake Vinuela).

Not far from all amenities (shopping center) and the coast (20 'drive).

New furniture, fully equipped kitchen (stove, oven, dishwasher, washing machine, large refrigerator and freezer, microwave, coffee maker, mixer ...).

French windows to the terrace.

Attractive, spacious living room with satellite TV and music system. WIFI available.

Entrance hall / dining area.

Master bedroom with two beds, sofa bed and private bathroom.

Two bedrooms with two single beds separated by one additional bathroom.

Air conditioning in all bedrooms. Ceiling fans in all bedrooms and living.

Central heating for cool nights during low season and Christmas.

9x4 m swimming pool with roman steps.

Garden with several seating areas, garden furniture and barbecue.

Outdoor lighting for cozy late night dinners on the terrace, surrounded by beautiful nature (with birds and bee-eaters, swifts, larks and birds of prey).

In short, an inspiring, relaxing environment to spend time by the pool or under the stars.

However, the villa is well located for excursions inland (Granada, Cordoba, Ronda) or to the coast (Malaga, Marbeilla).

Alcaucin is the nearest village with narrow streets, whitewashed houses, exuberant flowers and charming courtyards.

Bakeries, butcher, supermarket, bank, bars and restaurants, ...

The house is better equipped than average.

An Amazing villa with amazing surrounding

Villa was amazing, very clean and what an amazing view to look out to. Lots of space and fully equipped and everything you could want. The pool was clean and amazing and exactly how it was described. We were met onsite by Frank who is an absolute legend. Very helpful insightful and knowledgeable and nothing was too much for him to assist or help with. An excellent holiday loved by all of us.

Absolutely Fantastic Villa & Location !!!!

Our family of four (2 adults, a 12 and a 16 year old) stayed for 2 weeks during the summer (Aug 20th - 3rd Sept). The Villa had everything (and more) we ever needed. It was clean, spacious inside and out, with beautiful gardens, a sensational large pool and a location with views to die for to top it all off!! We brought things with us such as binoculars and a pump for the inflatables, but these were already provided. (We seriously over-packed!). The journey up the "mountain road" to the villa seemed daunting at first, but the instructions given by Heidi were very helpful and after a couple of outings it actually became an enjoyable part of the holiday - we found excitement in navigating it in different ways in the car and enjoyed walking around the area too (when the sun was hiding)! We loved the opportunity to potter around the garden, watering the plants and admiring the local wildlife; birds, small reptiles, insects and a cat! Frank who welcomed and oversaw us during our stay was an absolute pleasure to meet and spend time with; a true gentleman - nothing was too much trouble and his knowledge and advice about the local area proved to be invaluable (including the local village which is very charming)!! We have stayed in a few villas in the same area of Spain over the years and this was without doubt the best. The photo's of the villa (at the time of writing this review) do not do it justice - it is far better in reality! We would definitely recommed this villa to anyone thinking about staying and would not hesitate to return! Thank you Heidi for sharing your beautiful holiday home with us - hopefully we will be back soon!! Chris, Sam Hollie & Logan.

Ruhige Idylle

Meine Familie und ich haben 14 sehr schöne Tage im Ferienhaus verbracht. Im Haus fehlt es an nichts, alles ist in einem tollen Zustand. Wenn ein Problem vor Ort sein sollte, ist "Supermann" Frank sofort zur Stelle. Die Weg Beschreibung ist auch sehr genau. Das ist auch das einzig negative an dem Feriendomiziel. Das letzte Stück der Fahrt ist sehr Mühsam zu bewältigen und ein SUV ist schon sehr empfehlenswert. Falls man mit einem Leihwagen anreisen sollte, wäre es empfehlenswert einen SUV zu buchen. Aber wenn man vor Ort ist, entschädigt das tolle Haus und die Aussicht!

La maison est magnifique, domine un parc naturel et offre une vue à couper le souffle. La maison est parfaitement équipée. Nous recommandons les yeux fermés avec en plus un magnifique accueil de la part de Franck qui s'occupe des arrivées. Un conseil cependant: louer une voiture permettant de rouler sur de la piste. Ce sera plus confortable..

Fantastic villa in a beautiful location

We arrived at the villa and were met by Frank who was very helpful and ensured that our week in the villa went smoothly. He was great to talk to about the area etc. The villa was lovely and the pool was a necessity to cool down each day. A lovely place to relax, or to base yourselves for exploring the area. All in all I could not fault anything.

Peaceful and relaxing

An extremely well equipped villa in a wonderful position with views overlooking the lake across the valley to the distant sea. If you’re looking for a peaceful relaxing holiday in a comfortable home from home then this is the place for you. The owners and their local rep are very helpful. The directions re travel from the airport to the meeting place are very clear and precise. The surrounding hills and villages are good to explore and it’s an easy drive to the coast and shopping complex. Would definitely recommend.

Huis in de bergen

Het huis is een fijn en groot huis. Het uitzicht is prachtig. Het huis is heel goed uitgerust. Alles is aanwezig. Sommige dingen zijn wat verouderd zoals de badkamer. Mijn man is erg groot en paste bijna niet in de douchecabine. De weg naar het huis is een uitdaging . Onverhard en met grote kuilen. Een wat grotere auto en 4x4 is vereist. Als je hoogtevrees hebt moet je een paar keer slikken. Het zwembad was heerlijk. Al met al zeer naar ons zin gehad

Erg fijn verblijf, prachtig huis

We hebben met ons gezelschap, 6 dames, een ontzettende fijne tijd gehad in dit huis. Alles was keurig netjes bij aankomst, fijne begeleiding van de Engelse contactpersonen. Huis is zeer ruim, zeer compleet ingericht, goede bedden, prachtig uitzicht, heerlijk zwembad, keuken van alle gemakken voorzien. Contact met eigenaren ook prima, alles zeer duidelijk. Prijs / kwaliteit zeer goed. Stand klein halfuurtje rijden, daar ook grote supermarkt, prima boulevard. Luchthaven op klein uur rijden. Dorp vlakbij. Enige minpunt vonden we het laatste stuk weg vanuit het dorp. Zeer stijl, maar vooral met de gehuurde bus (9 persoons) moeilijk begaanbaar, weg was slecht, denk door eerdere regenval en grind maakte dat we best gleden en dan op die hoogte eng, met aan soms beide kanten de afgrond. Mogelijk lag het aan de grote van onze huur bus, wel iets om rekening mee te houden en een 4x4 zou geen overbodige luxe zijn.
