About the area
Accessibility
Children are made welcome. Split levels in the house unfortunately make the property unsuitable for those with mobility problems.
Outside
The house is situated on an old olive farm, up a 1km unpaved mountain track with unobstructed views over the Rio Guadalfeo valley. There is ample parking right outside the house with access either via the heavy wooden front doors or through a walled garden. Mediterranean flowers, palm trees, cacti, and shrubs fill the patios close to the house while a variety of trees grow within the traditional stone walled terraced land. The gated pool area offers sunbeds and umbrellas & a shaded table for long lunches, while underwater lighting makes a midnight dip under the stars a must. By the house, there is another shady dining area, accessed from the kitchen, with a BBQ. There are various other places to sit, & a hammock & wooden swing hang under the olive trees which shade the house. Younger guests will love the climbing frame and slide, as our own children have.
Coast/Beach
The closest beach is approx 30 mins drive away in Salobrena, although when driving either east or west along the Costa Tropical there are many other options.
Golf
The nearest golf course can be found 30km away: the 9-hole 'Los Mariscos' on the Playa Granada beach near Salobrena.
Skiing
The Sierra Nevada ski resort is one of the few places in the world where it's few possible to ski in the morning and then head to the coast for a swim in the afternoon. Located approx 1.5hrs from Orgiva, the resort can offer some great skiing as late in the year as April & the views across the Med to Morocco are breathtaking. Thoroughly recommended.
How to get there
The nearest airport is Granada, which is about 1hr away, but international flights to this airport are limited. Malaga airport is well served from the UK and is 110 km from Orgiva (approx 2hrs from the property).
Distances
The house is located on the Tijola road approximately 6 kilometers from the small town of Orgiva. The last kilometer of the approach is on an unmade road, which is passable in a normal car.
Further Details
Walkers will find the famous GR7 walking route close by & nature lovers will delight in the unspoiled views & huge variety of bird life to visit this part of the mountains.
Booking notes
We take a 20% deposit when booking which is non-refundable, balance to be paid 1 month prior to arrival. A security deposit of 150 Euros is requested on arrival to cover any potential damages/breakages.
House swap
House swap considered.
