This large villa is situated at the quieter south end of the white village of Gaucin, on a plot of 900sq meters. This is rare indeed, to have as much space in a village of this size. The house has its own entrance, and the garden covers an area of approx 450sq meters, with a circular swimming pool and separate shower room, etc. The spacious garden is on many levels with a grand Carob tree, and a fine view of the village and natural wildlife. Secluded and secure with a covered barbecue and bar area. Umbrellas and sunbeds are provided. Situated on the edge of the village the house escapes the general noise of pueblo life. Of course all shops, banks, etc, are within an easy walk. Gaucin is one of the most spectacular white villages in Andalucia and has a large Moorish castle and a maze of narrow streets.

Guest comments
What a beautiful , large house, this is, we so enjoyed our stay at Gena Rasa, it is indeed set in a large garden with so much space, and is away from the general noise and bustle of village life. The views are something else, you can see the med, Gibraltar and the Rif mountains.. Very clean and tidy.
Amanda and Derek Jones. Cardiff. Julio 2011.
In Gaucin and La Gena Rasa we feel we found a unique and special environment to get away from our normal lives and relax..
Loved the house and appreciated its space and comfort, particularly when four friends joined us for a week. Gena Rasa is well designed. in fact it has its own micro climate ! The views from the terraces are stunning, and probably the most impressive we have experienced in many years of traveling. The garden has given us a great deal of pleasure Thanks for a truly memorable holiday. 23. July. Chris/ Rhona. Stevenage. UK
