Owner profile
About the owner
We live in England with our 2 children and 2 cats, just across the local common where we walk and cycle all over. We are a family of keen cyclists & try to have a cycle outing once a week. If not cycling (or playing tennis if you're Nico), we love playing games, music, singing, al fresco dining or barbecues, walking, swimming, being part of our local community (fairs / markets / music events)
Year purchased: 2004
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We love our house firstly because of all the effort we put into "dressing" it... We love the view, the freedom, the marble, the difference to how our life is at home - a true holiday home.
We love the area because it supports our need for a varied holiday (we have a 15 year gap between all our children) - we overlook the orange/lemon groves adjacent to the De La Mata (salt lake) Nature Reserve which is great for local walking & cycling. Local supermercado is walking/cycling distance away. Yet we are central to small wonderful Spanish villages, market towns and great cities. All with great traditions all year round (truly awesome Easter and Christmas celebrations as well as outstanding concerts & events over the Summer holiday offering a little more entertainment and cultural diversion)
Unique benefits of the property
This is OUR holiday house that we share with you.
Our house is unique in both style and practicality. Elegant furniture -not the mass produced bland offerings of most. Fully functional for any time of the year (winter - heat, summer - air-con / terrace dining, built in proper barbeque, proper wooden garden furniture and loungers) with all, not just some, holiday conveniences such as dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer, combination oven (microwave & convec) and even kitchen processor.
As we love cycling:2 adults & 2 children's bicycles. As we love games, multitude of games. As we love music & movie there are many CD and a big selection of DVDs. We love exploring so our guidebook's there... And with kids - toys, work - broadband of course! Our home from home. Hope you enjoy it too
