Andalusia, Spain

This is an eco-friendly home near Pitres on the southern slope of the Sierra Nevada. The property covers over 3,000 m² and features an orchard and two meadows with olive trees. On the ground floor, you’ll find the living area and dining area with an open kitchen, as well as a bathroom with a shower and toilet. The covered outdoor terrace with a barbecue is a wonderful spot on a warm summer day. On the first floor is the master bedroom with a double bed, a single bed, and a sink, and there is also a small bedroom with a single bed. The bathroom has a children’s bathtub, toilet, and sink. Doors from the master bedroom open onto the terrace, offering a stunning view of the valley. The pool and terrace are the focal point in the summer. Water comes from our own well, and electricity is generated by solar panels, with a quiet generator as a backup. Thanks to an inverter, the entire house is supplied with 220-volt alternating current. When you do a load of laundry in the machine, it’s a wonderful feeling knowing that the water comes from the well and the energy comes from the sun!
Nature and surroundings
The Las Alpujarras region is a paradise for hikers and nature lovers. There are beautiful trails for hikers and cyclists both in the high mountains and in the valleys. Several GR trails run through the area, and the GR7 even passes through Pitres! The nature house is surrounded by farmland with olive groves, vineyards, orchards, deep valleys, and forests. The white villages still retain the authentic style of North African villages. Pitres is just over two hours from the Malaga airport. The access road to the cottage is nearly a kilometer long, half of which is unpaved. However, you don’t need a special vehicle to drive on it. It’s about a 20-minute walk to the village, or a five-minute drive. La Taha is a group of seven villages, and Pitres is its administrative center. There is a supermarket, a bank with an ATM, a butcher, a bakery, a small bookstore, a pharmacy, and a 24-hour first-aid station. The Mediterranean beaches are an hour’s drive away, as is Granada with the Alhambra. Be sure to order tickets online well in advance.

An absolutely extraordinary place! The house is superbly equipped, and it really has everything you could need. The scenery is simply breathtaking! The peace and quiet, the nature, and this special location made our stay unforgettable.
We were particularly impressed by the technical expertise and effort the owner put into providing such a high level of comfort in a place like this while living almost entirely self-sufficiently. Solar energy, an independent water supply, and the entire technical setup—it’s truly fascinating what has been created here.
On a personal level, too, we couldn’t have asked for better: Everyone involved was exceptionally friendly, helpful, and always approachable. We felt welcome and very well taken care of from the very first moment.
For us, this stay was something truly special. Anyone looking for peace and quiet, nature, and an extraordinary living experience will find a truly unique place here.
We highly recommend it!Ein absolut außergewöhnlicher Ort! Das Haus ist hervorragend ausgestattet und es fehlt wirklich an nichts. Die Landschaft ist einfach atemberaubend! Ruhe, Natur und diese besondere Lage haben unseren Aufenthalt unvergesslich gemacht.
Besonders beeindruckt hat uns, mit wie viel technischem Know-how und Aufwand der Eigentümer es geschafft hat, an einem solchen Ort ein so hohes Maß an Komfort zu bieten und gleichzeitig nahezu autark zu leben. Solarenergie, eigene Wasserversorgung und die gesamte technische Umsetzung, wirklich faszinierend, was hier geschaffen wurde.
Auch menschlich hätten wir es nicht besser treffen können: Alle Beteiligten waren ausgesprochen freundlich, hilfsbereit und jederzeit ansprechbar. Wir haben uns vom ersten Moment an willkommen und sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt.
Für uns war dieser Aufenthalt etwas ganz Besonderes. Wer Ruhe, Natur und außergewöhnliches Wohnen sucht, findet hier einen wirklich einmaligen Ort.
Absolute Empfehlung!Highly recommended!

Lovely place, tastefully decorated and the garden and everything around it beautifully landscaped. Many tips and help through the owner. Nice villages in the area and beautiful walks. We were there in the summer and hardly encountered any tourists and the people are very friendly. We have enjoyed ourselves very much with our 3 kids (11, 14 and 17).
Heerlijke plek, sfeervol ingericht en de tuin en alles eromheen prachtig aangelegd. Veel tips en hulp via de eigenaar . Leuke dorpjes in de omgeving en mooie wandelingen te maken. Wij waren er in de zomer en kwamen nauwelijks toeristen tegen en de mensen zijn supervriendelijk.
Wij hebben enorm genoten met onze 3 kids ( 11, 14 en 17)..Fantastic remote location, paradise: t view, the peace, the diversity of nature around you and of course t pool.
Fantastische afgelegen locatie, paradijselijk: t uitzicht, de rust, de diversiteit aan natuur om je heen en natuurlijk t zwembad.
