Accommodation

Notes on accommodation
The house is beautifully positioned in the countryside, situated just outside the village of Teseguite down a quiet lane,it is bathed in sun all day, yet it remains very comfortable in the heat with the offshore breezes. All the rooms have very high ceilings so we have found no need for heating or air conditioning all through the year. This is a really family friendly home and great for children of all ages! The owners have made every effort to provide all that you may need on holiday with plenty of variety and scope for fun. The house is powered by wind and solar power, the energy being stored in submarine batteries in an underground garage, supporting this is a Lambourghini powered generator which provides power for heavy loads such as cooker ovens and hot water tanks, it is rather unique. TV/DVD's and CD are provided in each bedroom and Sky is available in the drawing room and kitchen. The inner courtyard sports two 6pdr Naval cannons to keep out the Pirates.

Amenities/Facilities provided

Accessibility
Unfortunately this property is not suitable for wheelchair users.

Outside
The gardens are huge and there is tons to see and do, full of indigenous Canarian plants it is an excellent retreat for all tastes, there is plenty of space and lots of different areas to sit and relax and get a little personal space when needed. The pool is very large, 12m x 6m, with a constant depth of 1.4m, access is via three large steps. At night two pool lights illuminate to provide a wonderful romantic setting for a late night dip. The pool area is vast and screened for privacy, and is nicely walled and fenced with three access gates which can be locked. Beyond the pool is the games garden where a number of games can be enjoyed, ideal and safe for all ages. Various balls are provided. A boule court with balls, is located in the walled garden, which is overlooked by the Moorish pergola, an enchanting place to relax. The sun terrace which overlooks the pool has a large dining table beneath a Bamboo roofed pergola, a fridge, huge BBQ and plenty of sunbeds with parasols.

Coast/Beach
There are plenty of excellent beaches on the island, and they are not black sand! Our favourite beach is little known to the tourist and is just 15mins drive from the house at Arrieta, it is great for surfing in one part & is fabulous for safe family bathing in the other. It has golden sand, a pier and crystal clear warm water, it also has two excellent beach cafes serving delicious tapas, and drinks. The beach at Famara is about 20mins drive. The Island has a wealth of other lovely beaches too.

Golf
The large international 18-hole Golf course at Costa Teguise is only about 15 minutes drive away. It is beautifully maintained and offers even the better golfers a challenging round.
At the house you will find two new full sets of modern clubs with bags and the usual attachments, so you don't need to hire clubs, just provide your own balls!
A fantastic new course is being built at Puerto del Carmen which is only about 25 minutes from the house.

Travel
Check out Easyjet from Gatwick & Manchester direct and from Bristol via Madrid. The airport of Arrecife is 20 mins, and a taxi trip to the house is normally under 20 euros, the taxis are excellent clean modern cars, with helpful drivers they are metered. Car hire is easy we recommend one particular company who we have used for years, they have VW Golf convertables as well as other cars, and they will deliver and collect from the airport. We highly recommend hiring a car as there is a lot to see.

Distances
The ancient capital of Teguise with plenty of good shops including a really well stocked general store, and excellent grocer is just 3km away, our village Teseguite is a few hundred yards. Modern supermarket shopping is available in Arrecife about 12kms, and 15kms to St Bartholomew. The island is quite small so knowhere is very far away the roads are now very good and navigation is not difficult. Excellent bus and Taxi services are avialable and are not expensive.

Further details
This island is beautiful and fascinating, at the house we provide a detailed information pack with listings of places of interest and things to do, you could never be bored here whatever your interests. It has become very cultural and in many areas rather exclusive. Within Teguise city are some stunning restaurants serving delicious fresh food, we list our recommendations at the house, we know of 12 which we have tried and tested, including a lovely French Morrocan Riad, two superb international restaurants and some excellent local Spanish/Canarian places to eat, they are family friendly and you are never too late for lunch. There are two cash point machines, a Bank, a Chemist, petrol station. Some fabulous clothes boutiques, an excellent leahter shop for boots and shoes. There are galleries and artisan shops selling some lovely items and not just tourist junk! Every Sunday there is a massive lively market with everything happening. Every bar, cafe, restaurant and shop is open, there is dancing, music, art and hundreds of stalls where you can buy all sorts. A great tourist attraction, but a great morning out.
All around the island there are some lovely beaches and really well presented tourist attractions, these are mainly inspired or designed by the late Caesar Manrique & offer fantastic things to see, set in marvelous surroundings abounding in plants and wonderful colour. There are stunningly located Castles, one is a museum of Canarian culture, another an art gallery with fabulous glass fronted restaurant right by the main port, the food is delicious the setting amazing, my son's thought it was something from James Bond!
The scenery is amazing, sunrises from the house are brilliant, with the sun emerging as a fireball from the Atlantic, sunsets over the mountains are incredible & best viewed from the Gran Hotel cocktail bar. Excellent free magazine called the Gazette is well worth getting as it lists all the attractions, and details many interesting articles.
