Fantastic grounds for children, walled and fenced all around with electric entrance gate. Please note that the pool is not fenced.

Accessibility
All on one level, but no modifications for wheelchair users. Access by car is straightforward, with ample parking space. There is a consistently good mobile phone signal. Flights into Valencia airport are usually most convenient, although Alicante airport is only a bit further and may provide more options.
Outside
The large 12 x 7 metres private pool is ideal for swimming or relaxing on airbeds etc. Level access from the villa, so easy to keep an eye on the children! There are 3 steps at the shallow end (85cm) and conventional upright steps from the deep end (190cm). The pool water is filtered and treated.
Extensive fully enclosed gardens in sun and shade. 2 small wooded areas and numerous large palm trees attracting a wide variety of birds. The terrace patio is mainly covered (for much needed shade in summer!), although the lawned gardens provide ample space for sun worshippers. Four sun loungers provided.
A barbecue is provided.
There is a second open patio area also with table and chairs.
The hammock strung between two shady trees is ideal for a siesta or just to relax with a book.
A 4 metre trampoline (with safety netting) will have your children jumping for joy!

Guest comments
Splendid - exactly what we wanted. An oasis of cool and calm away from the masses on the Costas. Thanks for all the tips on places to eat out! John and Gwen, Guildford
Well located for access to local town and country attractions. Totally relaxing - ideal being able to watch the kids playing in the pool from the terrace while sipping a glass of the excellent local wine. The Robinsons - Durham
