Sitting amidst a spectacular rugged landscape in an unspoiled corner of Andalucia, this 200 year old cottage offers clean air, far reaching views and complete seclusion and privacy. If you’re looking to escape the distractions of everyday life then this is exactly what you need.
The Casita is one of those places that perfectly blends original features and rustic charm with stylish furnishings and contemporary comforts - so it’s perfect for those who want to get away from it all without sacrificing all the little luxuries. Inside, the cottage has everything you could need for a relaxing break, from a fitness suite to a wood burning stove. Outside the swimming pool and terraces provide sensational views and ample opportunities to drink, dine and relax. And within easy reach there are villages, markets, historic towns, authentic restaurants, sandy beaches and quiet coves to explore. This is a gorgeous little place.
The Casita feels wonderfully secluded but the picturesque village of Taberno, home to restaurants, bars, grocery stores, banks and a pharmacy, is just 10 minutes away. The agricultural town of Huercal Overa, home to an excellent Monday market, is 20 minutes away, and a scenic 30 minute drive will take you to Velez Rubio and Velez Blanco, the gateway to the Sierra Maria- Los Velez Natural Park. A day trip to the beaches of the beautiful San Juan de Los Terreros resort is a must, and further down the coast you will find Mojacar and Garrucha, which bustle with trendy bars and eateries.
Getting There:
Situated just 15 minutes from the main Autovia E15 /A7 exit 675 Huercal Overa, the house is easily accessible from three main airports (Almeria & Murcia 80 mins, and Alicante 1 hour 50 minutes). You will receive detailed driving directions on confirmation of booking.
