Casa Terrazas is a spacious townhouse in Albunuelas in the Lecrin Valley. Accommodation is on two levels with a large lounge/diner, well fitted kitchen and a cloakroom on the ground floor with a double bedroom, twin bedroom and a bathroom on the first floor. Air conditioning / heating is available. Outside there are two terraces. The house is part of a small complex with a secure garage and a shared swimming pool (8.5m x 2.5m). It is situated on the south facing slope of Sierra Albunuelas and there are magnificent views over the gorge. Albunuelas village is a short walk and is a typical traditional Spanish “white” agricultural village. There are several shops, bakers, bars and restaurants – all with a very Spanish character. The main highway linking Granada to the Costa Tropical is only 15 minutes away and this gives access to the city of Granada with the Alhambra and other famous sites and equally fast access to the coast and the resorts of Salobrena and Almunecar

Coast/Beach
The Costa Tropical is significantly less than one hour's drive from the house. The resorts of Salobrena, Almunecar and La Herradura are most well known.
