Sympathetically Restored Rural Casa with Private Pool
Peaceful Location with Valley Views
Sleeps 8 (4 Bedrooms)
|
|
Casa Christina was a tradional Anadalucian cottage approximately 400 years old and originally our home here. Over the past few years it has undergone sympathetic restoration and extension retaining all its rustic charm. It is surrounded by olive groves and is totally private. The views down the valley to the distant hills of Las Chozas are superb. The house is perfect for groups of friends holidaying together as well as families and family groups. It now offers comfortable accommodation for 8 people with 4 spacious bedrooms overlooking the pool. One twin and one double on the ground floor with bathroom and one twin and one double on the first floor with bathroom. This makes it ideal for two family accommodation or for the less agile members of your group to take over the ground floor. As we live only 10 minutes away we are always available to give any help or advice on all aspects of local life, what to see, how to get there and the best places to eat!

Outside
Private pool: The newly installed eco-pool system maintains the water to drinking water standards, 100% chemical free. It has under-water lighting and measures 8m x 4m by 1.4 metres deep all over, so excellent for a swim or just to play about in. Plenty of pool side terracing with loungers and seating.
Terraces: a large covered area to the side of the house, is just right for alfresco dining and to get out of the sun. A gas BBQ, drinks fridge and table tennis are also located here. The bamboo and vine covered roof terrace at the rear of the house has wonderful views down the valley and is an ideal spot for breakfast and quiet reading.
All the terraces are lit so what better way is there to end the day than to sip sangria and listen to the cicadas under a clear, starry sky on a warm and balmy Andalucian evening.
Access and parking: Situated on the hill-side with a 200 metre typical unmade track, with parking at both front and rear of house.
