Histórica casa al borde de un pueblo en pintoresco valle semi tropical

Fabulous,elevated,peaceful characterful property. Complete with everything.overlooking stunning town in beautiful valley. Highly highly recommend a stay. Excellent!!!"

A unique property with stunning views. Expertly cared for by the indefatigable Pepa. Peaceful and calm. Comfortable, clean and within easy reach of Granada and the coast. Just loved the Aleppo Pine. It's ancient and certain it could tell some stories. Good walks, lazy days, a million books and a lot of laughter over long lunches and dinners. The perfect place to recharge and relax after a couple of strange years. Lots of different places to sit and just be. Rustical Travel were, as ever, professional and responsive."

Fabulous house. Beautiful setting. Incredible views. We were looking for somewhere to have a quiet, relaxing family holiday (parents and adult children). The house was great, pool is good (if a little small). The pine tree outside the front of the house provides shade all day if you want it. I read a book a day and drank a lot of wine. The housekeeper, Pepa, was discreet and very good. She cooked for us on two of the evenings we were there. The setting is exceptionally calm. We heard the chiming of the clock tower from the local church and the babble of a few children's voices rising from the village below as they came out into the cooler evenings. Apart from that, it was silent. Two weeks wasn't long enough!!"

we loved the villa, the surrounding countryside, the outdoor patios and gardens and surrounding organge and olive and almond groves. the hikes were beautiful across the river and over the bluffs. Pepa was incredibly welcoming and helpful and best of all, she is an extraordinary cook. we ate like kings and queens, local recipes and even adjusted to fit some of our vegan diets. healthy, fresh, beautiful, delicious and nutritious. thank you!!"

The House was beautiful and in a great location, with spectacular viewsIt was lovely having the Housekeeper pop in every day. The baker called most days with fresh bread croissants.It was a very peaceful place.We didn't realise all the local restaurants would be closed in the 1st week of September?We wanted to invite friends over from Granada, but couldn't find anything open.The house has a lovely kitchen but there a huge Cabinet placed in the middle of the kitchen, it makes the kitchen small and cramped, it could be placed in the Dining Room?"

A beautiful property with the most amazing terrace, overlooking the Lecrin Valley, perfect for breakfast or the evening aperitif. Pepa is lovely and can cook the most amazing meals, if required. Would definitely love to visit this property again."

We absolutely loved this place. It's in a stunning spot with spectacular views over the valley. A highlight was Pepa, who cooked for us on quite a few evenings, which made for a significantly more relaxing holiday. Her paella is amazing. We did have an issue with noise because we booked in the week of the Fiesta, which I think should really have been mentioned, since there was music blaring up for the valley until 5am for at least four of the ten nights. Another issue was that the house could do with air conditioning, or at least fans in August - at least for those nights when the music's blaring out!"

Excellent holiday home for the big family. Fantastic location, excellent house keeper Peppa, Clean. The only part on the downside would be the fifth room (adjoining another room as a walk through). Panadero, fresh bread delivered every day. Can very easy recommend this house to other familys travelling in Sierra Nevada and Granada district."

Thank you for your email requesting feedback. Thank you so much for all your help prior to our arrival at the villa. Your suggestion of the restaurant to stop at on our way to the villa (inland with stunning views) was perfect, great food and service, and such a great start to our holiday :) We had to contact Peppa to let her know we were running late as the flight was slightly delayed and the queue at the airport for the pre-booked cars took much longer than we had anticpated. It was lovely to be so warmly greeted by Peppa upon arrival. The villa looks so picturesque and inviting. The robes, slippers and pool towels advertised as being available do all need to be requested from Peppa upon arrival, as they were all stored in a locked room. We booked an evening meal of paella (as suggested Peppa), which was fanstastic, a real treat! And we got a lovely dessert too. Be good to update the website that it was €12 per head and not the €10 per head as currently advertised. We all loved the view from the terrace, absolutely stunning and we spent most of our daytimes there and in the pool (poolside could do with more shade). The back garden dining area was also really special and where we had our evening meals. Peppa's daily visit to cover chores was very much appreciated (she missed one day as she had a doctors appointment). Unfortunately we didn't cope very well with the summertime heat in the bedrooms during the night-time. We have made it a learning point to not book a summer villa in Spain without aircon upstairs, as we all struggled to sleep. We did know there wasn't aircon but we hadn't been to a villa before without aircon and hadn't realised how much the property heats up during the day. There were fans in two of the bedrooms. We asked Peppa for more and she provided one more on Tuesday so we purchased (and left there) an additional fan. We followed Peppa's advice of keeping the shutters closed during the day but nothing seemed to make a difference We coul only find a bar / restaurant down in the main part of the town which was more than 5-10 mins walk (we explored the area behind us but couldn't find anything there). The town (square) was really relaxed and it felt great to be amongst local people (playing dominos) and families, rather than other tourists. Wonderful coffee and tapas served there. We also enjoyed the chimes of the town clocktower. The highlight of our week was the visit to the Alhambra palace and gardens. It was only a short drive and was thoroughly enjoyed by all of us. I hope this feedback is useful."

The house in Abuenlas is lovely. Many thanks "

We had a great holiday at this villa in July, the house was very comfortable and the views from the terrace were amazing. We were made to feel very welcome by the owners and by the housekeeper, who also cooked a lovely paella for us one evening! Having fresh bread (and delicious croissants) delivered every morning was a big bonus. However, we were a bit disappointed that there were only four sunbeds round the pool (and they were not in the best condition) which meant that there were not enough for everyone and there was no spare sun umbrella for extra shade. We were also concerned as we specifically booked this villa as it was advertised as having a gated pool area, but the gate was very overgrown with ivy and therefore impossible to lock effectively which, combined with the big holes in the hedge, meant that the pool area wasn't very secure and we couldn't feel relaxed that our two year old would be safe. Overall, we thought it was a beautiful villa in a lovely setting but it needed some newer pool and patio furniture."
