Comfortable private villa on one floor with terraces and uninterrupted views

Everything from booking, to staying, to leaving the property was very straightforward. Communication at all times was clear and timely, and both Rustical Travel and the property owner were very easy to deal with. We would definitely book with the company again. We'd even go back to AP61 again as well. The house is beautiful, the pool is perfect for the hot days of July and August, and the area surrounding was beautiful. It's not touristy, but beautiful Mota at Alcala la Real is worth a visit, and it's very close. We visited the caves in Píñar (thanks to Antonio's suggestion), and went to the Moorish Baths in Jaén. All within a reasonable drive. It was too hot to consider Granada so we will definitely go back. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing holiday designed at your own pace. The house is lovely, nice outdoor areas for evenings and meals. Comes with everything you'd need. Thanks Wendy and all."

Fantastic villa, with everything you could possibly need, including tranquillity."

This was a great property and our first booking with Rustical Travel, and we will definitely look at further holidays. The villa was very well equipped and furnished, with everything we needed. We enjoyed the veranda and views, the pool was great (although probably didn’t need cleaning twice a week- one visit per week by the pool guys would have been fine). The location was great and we visited Cordoba and many of the surrounding villages and towns. I would recommend having the address details of the property available, as we had to go to the hospital in Acala el Real (due to to mosquito bites) and they needed to know where we were staying. More visitor info in the property (ie places to go, etc) would have been helpful - perhaps put a visitors book in there so everyone can recommend ideas. Thanks to Wendy, we had a great stay."

What a truly wonderful place to stay…we fell in love with the rolling olive tree plantations were always eager to get up and watch the sunrise. Quite possibly one of our most favourite places…fabulous villa and owner is lovely…such a fabulous and welcoming place to stay, thanks so much :)"

Pool was dirty, did sent message to Wendy. Not a real respons on that. One shower was also not clean, told cleaning lady about this. Shower also didnt work properly. Location is absolutely beautiful, but hygiëne could be better."

We have stayed at many Spanish villas but the view from the terrace here across the olive groves to the Sierra Nevada has to take first prize. A beautiful, quiet and very well-equipped villa. Brilliant that the pool is open from 1st April as we were able to have a swim in the afternoons. Wendy is always very quick to respond to any questions that you may have."

The villa was very luxurious and we spent our 2 weeks enjoying outdoor living on the terrace and by the pool. The location of the villa is very tranquil with amazing views over the neighbouring fields. Wendy was very helpful and made sure our stay was perfect. We would definitely go back."

The house had everything we needed and had lots of interesting pictures and items to make it more like a home . We loved the way the kitchen linked directly to the terrace . Rustical Travel provided there usual very efficient service and we feel reassured booking with them as we have done several times before."

Excellent stay"

This is the perfect holiday home and destination, it is every bit as beautiful, comfortable and luxurious as it looks in the photos. The perfect location to truly relax and spoil yourself in total privacy with plenty to do within a short drive if you can bring yourself to leave, once you've arrived. We loved the tranquility, stunning views, beautiful morning walks through endless olive groves, sparkling pool, bbq, gorgeous comfortable furniture and a kitchen that was a pleasure to prepare food in. We didn't want to leave, so booked again for next year, which we have never done before with any holiday. Thank you to Wendy for the exceptional warm welcome, letting out your fabulous immaculate villa and for advice on the local restaurant in the near village to eat, cant wait to come back."

Beautiful property, very well furnished and equipped, peaceful location, lovely view"

Ha sido una estancia perfecta. La casa es una maravilla, tal cual se refleja en las fotos. El trato por parte de la anfitriona fue exquisito."

Without doubt the most beautiful villa we have ever had the pleasure to stay at. From the moment we walked into the villa and saw the draw-dropping view to the day that we (reluctantly) left, EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. The villa is outstanding.... beautifully furnished, well equipped with everything you could need. It is absolute luxury - huge beds, sumptuous furnishings and a stunning, well equipped kitchen. The terraces outside are just perfect, furnished with lots of seating options and a fabulous BBQ for alfresco dining. The pool area is wonderful too and the perfect spot to enjoy the endless sunshine and have a dip in the beautifully maintained, private pool. Set in the olives groves, the villa is peaceful and quiet with nothing to interrupt your complete relaxation. Wendy, the owner, is so warm and welcoming....she even had a bottle of fizz on ice for us when we arrived. If you are considering this villa, please choose it - you DEFINITELY won't regret it."

We loved staying here although probably the hottest couple of weeks of the year. Our host was so helpful and it felt like being her guests in her family home."

Very pleasant stay, the property is lovely and Wendy is an excellent host. The views are spectacular and pool a really private little haven. Highly recommended, especially for cooks as the kitchen is very well equipped."

Everything about our stay in the villa was the best. Our hostess could not have done more for us or made us more welcome - despite really disrupting her weekend as we endured long airport queues, arriving at our meet-up venue hours later than planned. The villa is perfect. Everything you could want. - elegant yet utterly homely and wonderfully comfortable. The most beautiful covered terrace - a shady heaven in the 40 plus heatwave. High class poolside loungers, wonderfully comfortable bed, great kitchen, amazing views. Would highly recommend AP61 ( and Wendy) and plan to return. A perfect peaceful haven."

The booking service was good. There were a few problems with the property. The side where the dining table is doesn't get any sun and is rather gloomy and so we had to have our meals indoors. It was difficult to get hot water in the bedroom sink and in fact we ran out of water on the last day. The pool wasn't cleaned. Generally it wasn't to the standard the price would suggest."

Lovely house in an excellent, peaceful setting"

The view is as amazing as it seems in the photos. A lovely stay. Would happily return."

Wonderful place with a great view.. Even on a couple of days with bad weather in March we had everything needed in the villa for a comfortable stay."

It’s a really cosy house in a beautiful environment. Wendy is the best and kindest host!"

Great house, everything you need and more. Private and very silent surroundings."

AbsoLutely GORGEOUS. We loved this property, a perfect place for relaxation, extremely private, fabulous views, beautiful decor, very helpful and lovely owner. Can't recommend it highly enough and we'll definitely be back!"

Beautiful stylish villa and amazing views. The owner was really friendly and helpful. We just wished we could have stayed longer!!"

Well-equipped house in a peaceful spot amongst the olive groves, not far from Granada and various national parks in Jaén province."

The views were amazing . The inside of the property was very cluttered it felt like you were living in someone’s home with all there things still in . Also there was a problem with the water that didn’t get resolved. Wendy was very unprofessional"

We were looking for a quiet location and found this beautiful house with stunning views on the Sierra Nevada and a landscape full with olive trees. The large terrace was our favourite place to relax an eat. We visited Cordoba, Granada and made beautiful walks in the mountains and surrounding area. A lot of nice villages were waiting to be discovered. September is the perfect time to have some warm summer days without the heat of midsummer. At the end of the day we made our daily walk directly starting from the house through the olive groves. The house is very comfortably furnished. The kitchen is very well equipped. Perfect because we prepared every meal ourselves. We had a perfect stay! Thanks to Wendy to be an exellent host!"

Great choice of Rustical Travel with many thanks for it’s outstanding pre-holiday information services. The holiday house is just perfect if you like to spend some time in absolute calm environment with a stunning view and top facilities."

Wonderful homely villa with absolutely everything you could want. Stunning setting, very peaceful amongst the hills and Wendy was a fantastic host, thank you so much."

Nice location and Alcalá la Real was a great town and very interesting. The property was okay but not nearly as good as all the others we have used from Rustical Travel."

Just returned from a very relaxing week in this beautiful villa. The tranquility and vistas are magnificent. The villa is excellently appointed with absolutely everything you could possibly need to make your stay enjoyable and relaxing. We could never tire of the stunning views across the olive groves and of the quiet countryside. The pool was more than adequate and served its purpose well. The furniture, in every area outside and in, was superb and appropriate. This property is a true find in a beautiful location within striking distance of Granada and Córdoba. If you are looking for good quality in every aspect of the word, along with relaxation, this is a place to be. From welcome to departure owners and caretakers available for assistance should it be required. We cannot recommend this property highly enough."

We had the most wonderful and relaxed holiday ever. The villa is fully kitted out with everything you need for a great holiday - not that you need to stay indoors much, as the patio and pool area are perfect for Summer months. The views are amazing and it is so peaceful and quiet. Wendy is an excellent host and she has done a marvellous job. 10 out of 10."

This is a lovely rural retreat with all the luxury surroundings of a 5 star hotel. Great views, private and yet convenient for local services and attractions."

Absolutely wonderful! Spent our breakfasts and dinners out on the porch enjoying the beauty that is all around this lovely home. The home is well situated to go to Alcala, great restaurants.... and Alhambra is not too far away.. we attended a cooking school in Malaga, just a couple of hours away. We highly recommend this home!"

I would certainly recommend using rustical travel to book your holiday in Spain, we dealt with Carlos who was very helpful and sent all revelant documents through when said and all instructions were very easy to follow from start to finish! With regards to this villa.....wow what an amazing place to stay. Rustical travel did the most perfect job advertising this villa and the pictures are just on point! I will definitely be coming back to stay here again soon, the owner of the villa is also very helpful and lovely, we had brilliant service all round and I most certainly will book another holiday through rustical travel in the near future, great company!"
