Accessibility
Although single storey there are steps up & down, both within & between rooms. The house is therefore not recommended for anyone with walking difficulties.

The property is set within its own landscaped gardens.
Both main terraces are equipped with table & chairs. There are also sun loungers & a large sun umbrella.
The pool is large 14m x 5m with a terraced area to one end and is available between the months of May & October (weather permitting).
Coast/Beach
The beach town of Salobrena is a 40 minute drive away.
Travel
The nearest airport is Granada, which is about a 1 hour drive, but flights to this airport are limited. You may prefer to fly to Malaga, which is a 2 hour drive.
Distances
The house is located on the Tijola road approximately 7 kilometers (or 6 on foot) from the town of Orgiva. The last kilometer of the approach is on an unmade-up road, which is passable in a normal car.
Further details
This is ideal walking & mountain biking territory & from your door you have access to a footpath which links the higher mountain towns should you want the challenge.
The water supply comes from a private spring and we recommend buying bottled water for drinking & cooking. Water can be obtained at no cost from treated springs in the nearby spa town of Lanjaron.
Booking notes
Booking is direct with owner & confirmed once a 25% deposit has been paid. The balance is payable 4 weeks prior to departure.
Guest comments
Philip wrote "Cuatro Vientos is a perfect holiday hideaway. It's situated on the mountainside overlooking magnificent views of the valley below. It is a well equipped house with its own secluded swimming pool and garden. As soon as you arrive you begin to relax and enjoy the area. We thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and would recommend it to anyone."
Kerry wrote "We lacked for nothing. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday - lots of swimming in the gorgeous pool, lots of BBQ-ing. If you're looking for a place to get away from it all, totally unwind and chill out - this is the place to go. We'll definitely go back one day."
