From here the historic city of Granada and its Alhambra Palace can be reached in under 20 mins. The ski slopes of Sierra Nevada can be reached in approx 25 mins (sooner when the new road is completed in 2007). The beaches of Costa Tropical can be reached in approx 50 mins. Stunning walks of all levels begin literally at the doorstep. Other activities including horse-riding, mountain-biking, canoeing, fishing and paragliding are also available.

Or you can relax on the large terrace and admire the views.

Guest comments
'Having just returned I thought I would drop you an email to tell what a fabulous time we had. The apartment was beyond our wildest expectations, and far better than anything we have stayed in previously. The view from the balcony is stunning. We made it up to Sierra Nevada on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day - the children played snowballs on Christmas Eve, then on Christmas morning while the turkey was cooking we went up again so that they could do some tobogganing. I thank you for making this one of our best Christmasses, the attention to detail made all the difference.'

'We had a great time in Guejar Sierra - everything was spot on. Apartment is lovely, everything we could need and with those fantastic views from the terrace. The folder you put together really is excellent -we followed your advice and had a fantastic meal in La Hacilla. You can happily use me as a"testimonial case"for the apartment as I can't recommend it highly enough.' David G
