Casa Amelia is a recently renovated house with many original features in an exceptionally beautiful location on a limb from the quiet village of Acequias. The front door opens into a spacious beamed hall and dining room. The fully equipped rustic kitchen, winter sitting room with fireplace, and a spacious shower room are also on the ground floor. An unusual double staircase leads to an airy landing/reading area, three large bedrooms and the bathroom. A little door opens on to the first terrace shaded by an old vine and another staircase leads up to the roof terrace which has a 180 degree view over the unspoiled Lecrin Valley and the mountains beyond. The house is cool even in July/August as the breeze up the valley keeps this little part of the village cool. A bakers van delivers daily and a pleasant walk which short-cuts through olive and almond groves (or a 5 minute drive), leads you to the nearby village of Niguelas with its bars, market, pharmacy, and stores.

Further details

Location Information: On the edge of the Sierra Nevada National Park, Casa Amelia in the unspoiled Lecrin Valley is a fabulous location for walking (the long distance footpath GR7 is close by and runs from Algeciras to Athens!), bird watching (eagles, bee eaters, hoopoes and golden orioles), and exploring the Alpujarra mountains . The Moorish capital of Granada (20 minutes drive) has excellent tapas bars (tapas is free in Granada province!), good restaurants, Moroccan tea rooms, theatres, concerts, flamenco music, dancing and ... the palace and gardens of the Alhambra. Night life also nearer home - a 5 minute drive to Niguelas for tapas bars and musical events. The Costa Tropical with resorts such as Almunecar and the less well known Salobrena (only 30 minutes drive and featuring the 'lost boys' jumping from the cliff), have restaurants with sardines from the old boy Tonio, cooked over wood fires on the beach. If you feel a bit muscular the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada are less than an hour away
