About this property

Casa Almendros, Traditional Andalucian Style country house with Private Pool

Casa Almendros is situated between the white villages of Sedella and Salares, overlooked by the majestic mountain of Maroma, part of the Sierra Tejeda range, which forms a magnificent backdrop ! The house is built in the style of a traditional Spanish Finca, surrounded by olive and almond trees and is tucked into the hillside overlooking a beautiful valley with views down to the Mediterranean sea. The house is on one level with an open plan kitchen , dining and lounge area . A hallway from the kitchen leads you to the pantry with a large fridge freezer , further up the hallway is the twin bedroom with french windows leading out to the terrace , the shower room and toilet is located the other side of the hallway . The master bedroom with en suite bathroom with full bath and overhead shower is located to the end of the hallway and has french windows leading out to the pool terrace area . There are plenty of areas outside to ; eat "al fresco" using the gas BBQ , lounge on the daybeds while reading a book ,sunbathe on the loungers by the pool and of course sit outside with a glass of vino taking in the views and watching the sun go down ! The high standard of the accommodation, the peace and tranquility, the delightful bird-song and the beautiful sunsets are the most frequent remarks made by visitors. This is the ideal location for a relaxing holiday, spending days exploring the area or just lazing by the pool. For the more energetic this is fantastic countryside for walking at all levels, all through sensational landscapes. Maps and guides are available in the house to use. The village of Sedella with two small grocery shops and bakery is a 20 minute walk away and Salares (with a small supermarket) is a 5 minute drive. Both are unspoilt Spanish villages and have a choice of bars and restaurants .
There is a Visitor centre in Sedella with a small gift shop , here you can learn about the flora & fauna of this area as well as its history .

Fantastic Villa, Splendid Welcome, Wonderful
We had a wonderful week at Casa Almendros ! Villa has everything one can wish for. It exceeded our expectations, also thanks to Caroline and Malcolm who are lovely, super welcoming and available when needed. Villa feels in a remote place, at the same time it is very close to great places to visit and to Sedella which has an excellent local restaurant (with a chef who worked at a ** restaurant in Ronda (expect fantastic food)). Highly recommended!

Villa with pool
After a journey up the mountain with hairpin corners the villa was down a track just outside the a beautiful village - the journey was worth the beautiful setting. The villa looks out to a fantastic mountain range , very private and quiet with just the sound of the goat herder and goats wondering by . We went to the village Competa a couple of times which had a good selection of restaurants . Also went to the coast to swim in the sea and a day trip to Alhambra.

Perfect relaxing break at the most wonderful villa
The villa was exactly as described. It offers a well facilitated relaxing accommodation in a secluded rural setting. A car is essential as is the confidence to drive on winding, steep mountain roads. The support provided by Caroline and Malcolm was excellent. It is possible to walk to Sedella (30 mins there uphill; 15 minutes back!) where there is one small but useful shop and a lovely bar / cafe that does excellent menus del dia for €8!! Lots of pretty mountain villages to drive to. Would heartily recommend and would gladly come back. 😊😊

Stunning
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Almendros. Everything was as described and from the pictures it looked amazing but it was even better seeing it with your own eyes. The views were breathtaking. The villa stunning with everything you needed and lots of previous guests had left things like pasta, cereals, herbs, spices, oils etc…. It was so comfortable with lots of different spaces to hang out. The aircon and swimming pool were a lifesaver as the temperatures soared above 40 degrees. Lots of inflatables and pool toys for the kids (and grown ups) including goggles and snorkels, bodyboards, lilos etc… We saw lots of wildlife too, Bee-eaters, geckos, lizards, eagle, snake (False Smooth Snake) and lots of other weird and wonderful creatures. Our kids absolutely loved the place and were quite happy to just stay put. We did take a walk to Sedella one day which only took about 20-25mins but it was so hot for us that from then on, we drove in. A car is necessary and if you can get a good early flight to reach the big supermarket on your way up, I would suggest stocking up there as the local supermarkets are not as well stocked unless you drive out to some of the bigger villages.. We had plans to go on a few day trips but we just loved hanging out at the villa so only went out for 2-3 meals and then chilled out. It is the first holiday were we have come home and not felt like we needed another one. The communication between Caroline and Malcolm was spot on! They gave perfect directions and lots of useful local information. We would love to come back here one day.

About the host

Hosted by caroline ruth

Host profile image
We live in Oxford in the UK but the property managers , and our friends , Caroline & Malcolm live in the village of Sedella so they arrange the bookings and are there to meet the guests on arrival . Our family really enjoy staying at Casa Almendros whenever we can so that we can recharge our batteries and enjoy the peace an quiet of the area .

Why they chose this property

We bought land with views of a beautiful, secluded valley, the mountains and the sea. We love this area because it is still unspoilt, still very Spanish, away from the crowds in beautiful countryside and yet near enough to the coast for a day out as well as day trips to Granada , Malaga , Cordoba & Sevilla .

What makes this property unique

Fabulous views. Peace and tranquility but the village and its bars and restaurants only 20 minutes away on foot. Friendliness of the local Spanish people. Sun, (of course), good walking routes from the doorstep. A relaxed way of life. Our perfect day is a stroll into the village for the market and coffee in the bar, chatting with Spanish friends on the way and then back to the house for lunch and a swim.
