Notes on accommodation
The property has 2 wood burning stoves, one in the lounge and one in the master bedroom. The kitchen/diner, both bathrooms and the master bedroom have underfloor heating. The two twin bedrooms have radiators for winter use. Due to the spiral starcase we would not recommend this to be suitable for young children.
Accessibility
As with many traditional Spanish village houses there is not car access to the door. Whilst this provides a quiet holiday environment we feel it is necessary to point out that car parking is an easy 2 minute stroll away.
Outside
The house has three outside areas, a courtyard and two roof terraces. The courtyard leads through double doors from the master bedroom and is shaded by vines and a jasmine plant. One roof terrace is accessed from the kitchen, and this terrace has a barbeque and an antique table and chairs for 6.
The second roof terrace is accessed by a spiral staircase leading from the dining terrace, this second terrace gets sun from early morning to late afternoon, and has sun loungers for your use complete with views over the village and down the valley.
Coast/Beach
The Costa Tropical coast is around a 45 minute drive away, with the town of Salobrena and its fantastic fish restaurants well worth a visit. It is also possible to reach the reservoir, Embalse de los Bermejales via a forest track in around 30 minutes, which has restaurants and beaches surrounding it.
Golf
There are three golf courses available in the local area, Santa Clara golf south of Granada, Granada Golf south east of Granada, and Los Moriscos in Motril, a 45 minute drive away on the coast.
Travel
Granada Airport 60km, 45 minutes. Malaga Airport 180km, 2 hours. Almeria Airport 150km, 2 hours.
Car hire is recommended, but it is possible to use the local regular bus service to visit other villages and Granada, and is very easy to arrange transport from Granada airport to the village.
Distances
Costa Tropical 45km, 45 minutes. Granada 40km, 40 minutes. Lanjaron (Alpujarras) 20km, 30 minutes.
Further details
