Nature and surroundings

The majority of the 65-hectare estate is wilderness. You can set off on hikes directly from the house. Breezes from the sea are refreshing in summer, you can relax under the tall pine trees by the pool and gaze out into the distance from the terrace. A pair of eagle owls nest in the rocks, the little owl lives in the olive grove in the valley, and bee-eaters migrate through the gorge in the evening; larks, stonechat, Mediterranean wheatears and other rare bird species nest here. Sometimes eagles soar overhead. Here you can sleep soundly without the noise of civilization. The finca produces its own olive oil, almonds and herbal teas. The fields are cultivated according to ecological criteria (certified). We leave large, dead trees standing for the green woodpecker and bats. Rosemary and thyme grow around the house. Guided botanical walks can be booked. Mountain bikes are available. The sandy beach is 30 minutes away by car.

A hidden gem, really!

Real peace still exists, here on the mountain with sea view, wonderfully away from the world, what a great place! We stayed there for two weeks in July and enjoyed the infinity pool every day where we stayed for a whole day. Breakfast and lunch by the pool (supermarkets a 30' drive away) and in the late afternoon we went to charming Villajoyosa, to Altea or to Playa Muchavista. There is plenty to do in this beautiful area but we went for the blissful peace and nature.Carola is the really perfect hostess, very discreet and with a big heart for her beautiful nature domain.The house is nice and fresh as it is an old finca with small windows and at night it cools down a bit.
Perfectly furnished and also very nice that you can grind your own coffee and make delicious coffees with a real expresso machine. Water filter too! There are many shade sails, also at and over the pool which is really ideal. And you have the pool all to yourself.Really a very nice place, do!

House itself is an old finca. Nicely furnished. Layout rather illogical. For the toilet you had to go up and down several stairs. If you have mobility problems it is not convenient here. Kitchen is also on second floor. Otherwise it is beautiful. Swimming pool is insanely beautiful and large enough. We were with two people. House is indicated for 4 to 5 people. Second double bed is in large living room and single sofa bed also.

It is a fantastic area with beautiful views and absolute peace and quiet. Sometimes a lot of wind because you are in a valley. We were here in August and it had not rained for 9 months. Which is bad for nature but also gave a beautiful landscape.

Highly recommended! Also with children. We were super kindly received and helped during our stay. Lovely saltwater pool, very clean. The house is also very clean. Organic produce 25 minutes away, as well as a very large supermarket where everything is available. Also (beach) eateries at about 25 minutes. Also Kayaking/sea cave visit great! This was 1 hour 15 min drive, well worth it! Horseback riding 20 min away with a very friendly and hospitable owner. Also the mnr. of maintenance ed very friendly and helpful. All in all everything was excellent!!!

Wonderfully quiet, only natural sounds, Cicadas, birds. Space is also fine. Nature is super! Steenbok seen, many wild boar, fox, snake, butterflies... also the sound of a pygmy owl sitting closer and closer to the house and swallows flying over the beautiful saltwater pool to come and drink. Seen an eagle in the distance. The coast of Alicante visible from downstairs terrace. Drive to coast about 35 min. Also hiking/climbing in the valley very nice to look for animal tracks.
