Notes on accommodation
Sorry No Pets and No Smoking. Good quality linen and towels provided for use in the house. Everything is newly furbished and of good quality and there is plenty of hot water for all! Hairdriers in each bedroom. Adaptors for English plugs available. Highly efficient window shutters make the use of the fans supplied virtually unnecessary. Woodburning fire with a good supply of wood and heaters provided for cool winter evenings.
Accessibility
Las Chimeneas is wheelchair friendly - from the car to the front door, to the private garden, pool and terrace - there are no steps at all, useful also for families with young children and the elderly. There is an open shower/'wet room' for wheelchair access. Pool is separated from casita by a bolted gate for added security.
Outside
Private pool, 8x5m and 1.5 - 2m deep with terrace is for use by the guests. Table tennis table, table and chairs including loungers. Private courtyards and gardens. BBQ facilities. Ample parking in front of the house. Access to Las Chimeneas, 2.5 km from Orgiva is via the tarmac road followed by 200 metres of track and easy to find.
Coast/Beach
40 minutes to the Costa Tropical beaches. Drive through the mountains, and stop to look at the new dam and drive through the massive gorge as you near the coast. The journey itself is a great experience.
Salobrena is a hilltop white village with its Moorish castle and the beach stretching behind. A little further along is Almunecar with Roman remains in the old town and a bustling market and plenty of local shops.

Travel
On arrival, we meet all our guests in Orgiva and bring them personally to Las Chimeneas - much nicer than finding your way alone. The airport at Granada is 1 hour, at Malaga 1 hour 45 mins drive from here but we can arrange to collect you from there if preferred. A car/taxi is useful so as to have access to the beautiful white villages in La Alpujarra, the historical city of Granada and of course the coast. There are also daily buses which are inexpensive and go to Granada, the coast and beyond.
Distances
2.5km from Orgiva via a tarmac country road (5 minutes by car).
Further details
Good selection of restaurants and bars - enjoy your "tapas" [small plate of local food given free with each drink here]. Variety of shops, [including one supermarket which caters for the English tastes - yes- even pasteurised milk!] banks and a weekly market on Thursday and regular fiestas throughout the year.
Booking notes

Guest comments
We don't usually do this kind of thing but we had such as fantastic time staying in your Casita near you lovely home, that we felt compelled to thank you again. Our stay was so enjoyable, quiet if we wanted, yet plenty to do nearby, good pool to cool off in, Granada not far away, the sea not far either, horse riding was great high up in the mountains. Finally but most important, you looked after us so well, you mastered that difficult balance of hospitality and being around to help us, yet not ever making us feel you were intruding into our holiday. Thanks a million.
