Villa With Private Pool
Stunning Location With Views Over Mountains, Town And Moorish Castle
Sleeps 6 (3 Bedrooms)
|
|
The villa is just 1.7km/25 minutes walk from town and has commanding views over the whole region. The spacious accommodation is spread over two floors with large outside terraces on each floor. The pool area has a Pool House, lighting and all round terraces. The land is fenced and gated and due to its advantageous position it is not overlooked and occupants can be sure of total privacy. The land contains several hundred olive and almond trees and abuts a beautiful mountain region with fabulous walks available directly from the house. Within the grounds are two ancient eras (threshing circles) which provide wonderful terraces with stunning views over this very special and unspoilt region of Andalucia. Herds of goats are still driven in the surrounding countryside and donkeys, horses and even Ibex are sometimes visible from the house. The summer evening setting from the terraces is quite magical with Alora's Moorish castle lit up as a centrepiece.

Guest comments
This was truly one of the loveliest holidays we've ever had. We had such a relaxing time. Your house is beautiful, Dave (the house manager) was very friendly & helpful. It was the perfect escape & we would definitely book again. P and K.
We're having the best time in your wonderful villa. It is clear you have put lots of love into it, great attention to detail, the gardens are beautiful. We will surely be back next year! The five from Manchester.
We had a lovely holiday, the pool was great; we really enjoyed doing the pottery. S and R
Owner profile
About the owner
We purchased the land with a small goatherders cottage approximately 9 years ago and the house was built about 6 years ago. We have tried to maximise the views on this beautiful piece of land and build a very Spanish house that is both unique and interesting and now provides wonderful family accommodation and room for all guests to have a truly tranquil holiday.
We wanted the natural unspoilt beauty of Andalucia and to live in a Spanish community but not to be isolated or remote and we believe we have achieved these objectives.
Year purchased: 2001
Unique benefits of the property
For walking, climbing, for the lakes, the mountains, the flora and fauna, the wonderful climate and for the sheer natural beauty, this area is unsurpassed and yet it is a relatively short flight from the UK and a short drive from the airport.
