Holiday cottage in the Gaucin woods

We had a great time in Gaucin staying at this cottage. It was very peaceful and the cottage was very clean on arrival. The garden is very nice and well maintained and, being enclosed, it was perfect for our two small children. The pool too was great and we spent most afternoons around and in the pool. There's lots to do in the area and we enjoyed day trips to the beach and Ronda, as well as walking around Gaucin. We'd particularly recommend dinner/lunch at Platero and Co in Gaucin, with its fantastic view from the terrace. Three oberservations. not to be taken as criticisms, are: 1) The property is all on one floor, the pcture makes it look like there is an accesible upstairs. 2) There is no dishwasher. Probably not a problem if plan on eating out lots but a week was about as much washing up and I wished for! 3) There is an open void between the two bedrooms and sounds travels readily between the rooms."

Reluctant to share my thoughts on this villa as it could not be better and I don't want everyone finding it. The villa is lovely and set in well maintained and very private gardens. The sun room is great when it gets to hot outside. The local area is wonderful for exploring with plenty of good walking routes just outside the front door. The village of Gucin has all the things you need for a relaxing holiday. Excellent restaurants, a great little Deli and a good supermarket. All in all a delightful place to stay."

This is an ideal place for privacy, relaxation, and walking/hiking. We had two glorious weeks in this very comfortable house with wonderful outdoors areas for eating and relaxing. The garden is beautiful and the owners are very good at making sure everything is perfect. We walked to town for groceries, but some might prefer to take a car. We loved being able to pack a lunch and start a walk right from the property, some walks were more rigorous than others. Never went to the beaches, not our thing, but did visit Ronda and a couple of nearby towns. We'll be booking again for next year!"

A wonderful stay was had by us all in this lovely holiday cottage. Drive down track For first time was a bit of a worry ( dirt narrow track) but garden, swimming pool and accomodation made it worth while. A 20 minute up hill hike will take you into the town of Gaucin, would recommend.if you like the peace and tranquility within walking distance of the town of Gaucin."

Just spent a great week at RD74. The villa and its gardens are very private and well kept. The location is ideal if you want peace and quite. A 20 minute walk to the village of Gaucin for bars, restaurants, banks there is also a well stocked supermarket. All in all I would recommend this property as a great place to explore the area or just sit by the pool and relax. The local Rusical Travel staff where also extremely helpful."

Property was very nice, clean and in a secluded setting as described. Road to property however was very poorly maintained and hazardous in some places for a normal vehicle, would suggest an advisory 4 x 4 would be more suitable. Minimal welcome pack, wine, crisps, tea and coffee. No sugar or milk which would have been much appreciated on arrival after drive. Cooking utensils, oven dishes suited to larger families not couples. Overall we had a very pleasant and peaceful holiday in beautiful surroundings, which was exactly what we wanted. Many thanks Pete and Yvonne"

Loved it. Great area, away from the crowds. Property as described. Will be booking again soon."

We had a lovely time in Gaucin and enjoyed our stay at the property. Thank you for all of your communications via email and the holiday documents - they were very useful and thorough. The whole process, from booking to meeting our keyholer at the property, was smooth and pain free - thank you again Rustical Travel".

We had a lovely week at the villa in Gaucin. The villa is very comfortable, had everything we needed and felt very authentic and rustic. The garden is really beautiful and we could happily have spent the whole holiday there! Gaucin itself is very pretty and has several really good restaurants - although they are not all open every night so check what days they are open to avoid disappointment! The castle in Gaucin is worth visiting, lots of interesting ruins and great views from the top! We would recommend having a car there as the lane to the villa from Gaucin is quite long to walk but much easier to drive. Also it's worth having a car to visit the surrounding area. Ronda was about 45 mins away and well worth the trip with it's spectacular views!"
