Owner profile
About the owner
We bought Las Golondrinas in August 2000 and relocated. My background was in Agriculture and my wife had her own cleaning business. (Cleaning up after me and still is). We were looking for a change in direction and a new challenge. We got both. Our daughter was 6 years old and soon picked up Spanish. We have integrated into the local society and enjoy the company of the rural ways and traditions that this part of Spain offers.
Year purchased: 2000
Why the owner chose a home in this location
Las Golondrinas was already a successful letting business. The location takes your breath away. 450m. above sea level. Situated on the outskirts of the market town of Orgiva on the foothills of the snow capped Sierra Nevada mountains. The coast close by and the historic city of Granada the same sort of distance. 40 minutes.
Unique benefits of the property
The mature gardens of Las Golodrinas offers the guest plenty of shade to loose oneself tucked away in a corner and get lost in a book. With a wide variety of organic fruit to eat and lots of sunshine many guests return for another chance to recharge their batteries.
