Further details
The cortijo is on the outskirts of the small village of Tablones surrounded by often snow tipped mountains and on the side of the Sierra Lujar, it is the owner's Spanish home and is not a ‘tourist trap’. During your tenure you will have sole occupancy of the property. However, in the owner's absence, the property is maintained by a local English couple who will help with any queries about that you may have. At the heart of rural Spain, sheep are walked past the gate usually twice a day. In the spring the orange and almond blossom scent mingles with jasmine in a heady mix. There is 1 small bar in the village and a small friendly shop and the cortijo is only 5 minutes/3km by car away from Orgiva with its many bars, shops, supermarkets, restaurants, chemist, petrol stations, medical centre, health store, discos during the summer months, internet cafe, a Thursday Market and Tourist Information Centre. Relaxing by the pool can be interrupted by sight-seeing, with Granada and the famous Alhambra Palace built by the moors only 45 minutes away, the ‘white villages’ of the Alpujarras/Sierra Nevada in view from the house, echoing the Moorish past. A drive up to one of these through deep cut valleys for a little light lunch is a must. Lanjarron is a famous spa town 10 minutes away. A hire car or your own vehicle is an essential. Live your dream, walk for miles on mountain tracks taking in the scenery, go horse-riding or mountain-biking.In Spring and Summer,watch the hoopoes or catch a glimpse of golden orioles and the occasional soaring eagle whilst sitting in the shade of the terrace. Enjoy the warm evening with a cool drink, star gazing by the pool. You will find this area of Andalucia with its clean air and ‘wall to wall’ sunshine needs constant revisiting! If you are coming to stay as part of a tour of Spain, the owner may be able to offer some advice having spent the last 5 years visiting and touring Spain on a motorbike.
