Notes on accommodation
There is no washing machine in the cave but washing can be done at the main house by arrangement. Internet access is also available.
Accessibility
Good access, the cave sits on level ground and inside is all on one floor, there are only 3 steps, into the lounge area, and vehicles can park directly outside the entrance.
Outside
The cave has a large flat area outside, with an 8m by3m shaded area, and a paved area of 3m by 3m, with table and chairs. The pool is for the sole use of guests, and ourselves, and is 13m by 5m, and the pool area is accessed by a flight of steps, with handrail. The pool is 6 feet deep at one end, so young children would need to be supervised at all times.
Coast/Beach
Beaches can be accessed within one hours drive at Mojacar, Aguilas, Garrucha, and many other places.
Golf
Several golf courses can be accessed within 1 hour links to these can be accessed by our website.
Skiing
There is good skiing, in the Sierra Nevada, which is one and a half hours drive.
Travel
Car hire is essential, to appreciate the area, and to access the coast. The closest airport is Granada (recommended) which is 1 hours drive away. Almeria our 2nd choice is 1 hour 20 minutes drive, Murcia comes next at an hour and a half, and finally Alicante at two hours drive.
Distances
The village of Pulpite is 5mins walk but with no amenites. The town of Cullar is 10 mins drive, with all amenites including banks, supermarkets, post office, swimming pool area, lots of restaurants to choose from, petrol station, and of course local spanish bars!
Further details
The area has a lot of places to visit and things to do, from the gorge walk in Castrill, to quad biking in Huescar, both drivable in less than 45 mins. The lakes in the area are stunning. Lake Negratine is some 14 kilometers long, with restaurants at the side of the lake. Jabalcon mountain is 1250meters high, and is accessible by car, and gives fantastic views of the area. The wild life in the area is also good with eagles, and vultures often flying overhead at the cave, wild boar have also been spotted within half a kilometer of the cave! For a walking holiday the possibilites are endless just from the cave itself you can walk for miles on the tracks which litter the countryside and never see a soul! A great area for photography and also painting with many features to focus on. The night sky here is fabulous with no light pollution to interfere with the view, and for those who are interested we have our own telescope! We also have 4 mountain bikes which can be hired at 5 euros each per week for the more energetic guests!
Booking notes
Booking can be done either by telephone or on the internet, payment in full on arrival.

Owner profile
About the owner
We are a friendly happy couple who like to share our experience of cave living with our guests. Over a glass of wine and some "tapas" we will discuss with you the best areas to visit, places to see, best restaurants to eat at locally, and if needed (as with 2 of our previous guests) take you to the local health centre!!!
Year purchased: 2004
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We bought our 2 properties because of their situation. We are at the end of a road, so we have no passing traffic. The properties are about 60 yards apart, with conifers separating them, so privacy is provided for both us and our guests. We have 10 acres of almond and olive trees, bordered by several tracks which make this an ideal place for peace and tranquility, walking, painting, photography, cycling etc. The other advantage of our situation is that unlike some other rental properties we are 5 minutes from the main A92 motorway, although you can't see or hear it from the properties because of the terrain, so access to lots of places is simpler from here. The people in this area are all welcoming and friendly and we have enjoyed many a "fiesta" with our Spanish neighbours.
Unique benefits of the property
One of the great benefits of staying here is the magnificent 13x5 pool. Finished in natural stone, and not overlooked by either property, it is a great place to enjoy the sun and relax. You can do what you want when you want, with no restrictions from us. The advantage of staying in a cave is that it is roughly a constant 18 degrees all year round, so in the heat of the summer its lovely and cool,(no problems sleeping at night) and in the winter it is easy to heat.
