Owner profile
About the owner
The villa is owned by three friends all from the Gloucestershire area.We met through work and playing both rugby and cricket , we all have families and our children are of similar ages.
The property was originally purchased after consuming a rather large amount of alcohol, it has been an adventure with both good and bad stories to tell to get to where we are now but we are pleased with our achievement.
We have tried to make a home from home feel in the villa and will always welcome new ideas from our clients to improve our service.
Our main aim is to offer the personal touch and to have our clients give us positive feedback on their return from holiday.
Year purchased: 2004
Why the owner chose a home in this location
As previously stated the villa was purchased off-plan whilst half cut at a party ( not advice that Phil+Kirsty would give!) After plenty of sleepless nights we visited Medina and immediately realised we hadn't been as foolish as we thought.We were taken in by the scenery,the friendly locals , the food (and wine) and the charm of the village. After visiting the local beaches we realised that this area of Spain was not only stunning but pretty much undiscovered by the English!!
No Irish bars,fish and chips,or John Smith's bitter in the "Lord John" here ! Just beautiful scenery and laid back lifestyle...........perfect.
Unique benefits of the property
The villa is located on the edge of the village so giving the views, but is walking distance from the village centre and amenities.
We have tried to make a home from home with some added luxury like the hot-tub , not something you'd automatically think of for Spain, but it's been a real hit with our clients so far.
Medina is ideally located to get out and explore the Costa de la Luz and only 30 mins from Jerez airport .There are an abundance of interesting places to visit most well within an hour or two of the villa.
And when you return from your travels , its back to feet up and watch TV or a soak in the tub with a glass of wine or for us blokes a BBQ ! That's the benefit of a villa holiday......you choose.
