In beautiful nature, in a sun-drenched green valley, there is a romantic nature house with a lovely pool filled with water from the mountains. Amidst almond, olive and orange trees and surrounded by mountains. A small river flows past the house. Through a beautiful road you can drive in an hour to Granada with the world famous Alhambra or to the azure Mediterranean Sea. La Alpujarra is a beautiful mountain area with ancient olive trees, meandering rivers, ancient hiking trails and whitewashed villages. Only the sound of birds, running water or a shepherd with flock breaks the silence. The old water mill of Casabayacas is located on an acequia, a stream of water created 500 years ago by the Moors to supply all the farms with water. The water used comes from this stream. Energy comes from solar panels. On the land are citrus trees, olive trees, almond trees, avocado and pomegranate trees, among which chickens roam. Organic eggs and olive oil are for sale.
Nature and surroundings
This is a perfect hiking area. You don't have to drive far for it, you're right in the middle of it. La Alpujarra stretches from the highest peaks of the Sierra Nevada to the Mediterranean Sea. There are rolling valleys, but you'll also find the more rugged mountain landscapes of the Sierra Nevada and whitewashed villages that don't seem to have changed since the Moors. The hiking trails are as varied as the landscape itself. From forest path to ridge to riverbed. They mostly date from distant times (Roman and Moorish times) and are often old trade and connecting paths between the different villages. There are several hiking trails, including the GR-7, and you can climb the Mulhacen, the highest mountain in the Iberian Peninsula (3,479 meters). The pool is filled with water from the mountains. Every two weeks the landlords drain the pool. Through their own constructed irrigation system, they use this to water the trees and plants. Then the pool is scrubbed clean and filled again. They get the drinking water from one of the springs in the area, such as from Lanjaron, whose spring water is sold in bottles throughout Spain.

Great place, super-romantic and natural. You can fall in love with the organic shape of the wonderfully cool bedroom alone. Everything is basic and simple, but lovingly created. Our wish list is empty, except for a few slightly better chairs for inside, perhaps. We really had a wonderful time there among the streams.
Geweldige plek, super-romantisch en natuurlijk. Alleen al op de organische vorm van de heerlijk koele slaapkamer kun je verliefd worden. Alles is basic en eenvoudig, maar liefdevol tot stand gebracht. Ons wensenlijstje is leeg, op een paar iets betere stoelen voor binnen na, misschien. We hebben het echt heerlijk gehad, daar tussen de stroompjes.
It was a simple but lovely cottage in a beautiful place: authentic and clearly created with love. Located in the green, between two gurgling mountain streams. Pleasant terrace overlooking the valley and the church tower of Bayacas. Everything basic, but just right. We like that very much. Host Yvonne deserves a monument: sympathetic, attentive and involved, without imposing herself in any way. Someone to love.
Het was een eenvoudig, maar heerlijk huisje op een prachtige plek: authentiek en duidelijk met liefde tot stand gebracht. Gelegen in het groen, tussen twee klaterende bergbeekjes. Aangenaam terras met uitzicht op de vallei en de kerktoren van Bayacas. Alles basic, maar precies goed. Daar houden wij erg van. Host Yvonne verdient een monument: sympathiek, attent en betrokken, zonder zich op wat voor manier ook op te dringen. Iemand om van te houden.

It is a very nice cottage, kitchen also has everything, shower is good, but the most important thing is that Yvon welcomed me so nicely and has lots of tips for the area.
Het is een heel fijn huisje, keuken heeft ook alles, douche is goed, maar het belangrijkste is dat Yvon me zo fijn heeft ontvangen en heel veel tips heeft voor de omgeving.
Beautiful mountain views at the edge of a tiny village, among the fields / terraces of almond, olive and orange trees. Beautiful
Prachtig uitzicht op bergen aan de rand van een piepklein dorpje, tussen de akkers / terrassen van amandel, olijf en sinaasappelbomen. Prachtig

Very good and hospitable reception, I would love to come back and stay longer. I found 4 days too short to get to know the area. Beautiful place!
Zeer goed en gastvrij ontvangen, ik kom graag terug en zou dan langer blijven. Ik vond 4 dagen te kort om de omgeving te leren kennen. Mooie plek!
Beautiful and quiet, beautiful place to be in nature and very nice environment for hiking.
Mooi en rustig, prachtige plek om in de natuur te zijn en heel fijne omgeving om te wandelen.
