Pets not allowed
The house is a restored traditional cottage-style house, with chestnut beam ceilings and terracotta tiled floors. It is furnished simply not luxuriously with pine furniture, with three rooms and a shower room downstairs, and two rooms upstairs, one of which opens onto a terrace about 12 feet square with a bamboo sunscreen, which has a panoramic view of the hills and the sea and is not overlooked. There are two bedrooms, one has a double bed and the other a single bed. It has all amenities : both electric and butane gas heaters, hot water, shower, fridge, cooker, a granite kitchen worktop and also a wood-burning stove. There is no TV or washing machine. There is limited wifi (OK 3G/4G signal in part of the house). There is wifi access in the village bar. The steps up to the first floor are quite steep. There is an atmosphere of peace and quiet. The thick walls keep the house cool on hot sunny days.
Nature and surroundings
The house is in the village of Polopos in beautiful wild hilly countryside in the Alpujarra region of Andalucia, Southern Spain, South from Granada in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The village is set on 788m high hills about 6 miles from the sea (on a good winding road), and about 4 miles away as the crow flies. It is about 20 mins drive from the coast, which here is almost completely undeveloped. There are no golf courses, discos etc. As it is so high up there are spectacular sea views, (on some exceptionally clear days in winter you can see the African coast), with massive hills, deep valleys, olive and almond trees, orange trees, vines and goats. You can walk over the hills down to the sea in about one and a half hours. The whole village is painted white.

There is a roof terrace where you have beautiful views of the sea and mountains. If you walk a little bit you have a nature reserve where you can have a nice walk It is really a 10/10!
Er is een dakterras waar je prachtig uitzicht hebt op de zee en bergen. Als je een klein stukje loopt heb je een natuurgebied waar je heerlijk kan wandelen
Het is echt een 10/10!It was fantastic, beautiful spacious cottage quietly located high on a mountain. Super nice people in the village, definitely worth going here!
Het was fantastisch, mooi ruim huisje rustig gelegen hoog op een berg. Super aardige mensen in het dorp!
Zeker de moeite waard om hier heen te gaan!This text is automatically translated. -

A very nice house, spacious enough, clean and everything was there. Nice to stay in a real old Spanish house, we love it! The steep stairs in the room is a disadvantage, not suitable for children, older people and / or people who have difficulty walking. You need these stairs to get to the roof terrace, the only place to sit outside. We did miss that, a space to lie outside in the sun, or a shady corner for the many hot sun hours.
Een heel fijn huisje, ruim genoeg, schoon en alles was aanwezig.
Leuk om eens in een echt oud Spaans huisje te verblijven, wij houden er van!
De steile trap in de kamer is een nadeel, niet geschikt voor kinderen, oudere mensen en/of mensen die wat slechter ter been zijn.
Deze trap heb je toch nodig om op het dak terrasje te komen, de enige plek om buiten te zitten. Dat miste wij wel, een ruimte om lekker buiten te liggen in de zon, of een schaduwrijk hoekje voor de vele hete zon uren.Are you looking for peace, space and nature, then you are really Super! Beautiful surroundings, few people, so little noise and no stores and the like nearby. We enjoyed it very much!
Ben je op zoek naar rust, ruimte en natuur, dan zit je hier echt Super!
Prachtige omgeving, weinig mensen, dus weinig geluid en geen winkels en dergelijke in de buurt. Wij hebben er heel erg van genoten!This text is automatically translated.
