This
recently built casita is a five minute drive from the market town of Órgiva,
set back a couple of hundred metres from the small country lane which winds through
the countryside away from town.
It's a peaceful, rural location, hidden among
olive and orange groves. Views are superb, with the often snow capped peaks of Sierra Nevada to the north
and graceful Sierra Lújar dominating the horizon to the south.
The English owners live in the original farmhouse, some 50 metres or so away from the casita. Although close by, they
take every care to ensure that guests staying at the casita will enjoy peace and
privacy.
Guests have exclusive and private use of the swimming pool which is situated between the two properties.
Inside, it has very nicely decorated
using traditional rustic touches like wooden beams, ceramic tiles and rustic floors.
The walls are painted in natural ochres creating a warm, comfortable, cheerful atmosphere.
Entrance to the property is from the covered
porch, where one can enjoy breakfast in the morning sunshine or lunch in the shade
of the large avocado tree. All around is wonderful tranquillity amid the semi-tropical
vegetation.
A perfect retreat from life's hustle and bustle, here you
can rest up and laze around in complete peace. If you prefer something a little
more active, you can enjoy walking, riding and climbing in the nearby mountains
and there's lots to explore, too, in this beautiful part of rural Spain.
