The
Gate House has been recently converted to provide comfortable self catering
accommodation in a lovely rural location. It is built within the
grounds of Finca la Paz (The Farmhouse of Peace) in rural Andalucia and
enjoys a peaceful and relaxing position with spectacular views toward the
Sierra Nevada mountains.
The
Finca is planted with a wide variety of fruit trees such as oranges, lemons,
pomegranates, grapes, figs, almonds etc., all of which flourish in this
fertile area. It is an ideal retreat for the independent traveller who
wants to get away from the 'bustle' of modern life.
The
accommodation comprises one double bedroom with ceiling fan and full en-suite
bathroom, comfortable lounge with ceiling fan, dining area and fitted kitchen.
It is fully equipped for self catering and all electricity, gas, linen
& towels etc. are included in the rental.(not beach/pool towels).
There is off road parking in front of the Casita and a sunny private patio
with garden furniture, sun loungers & BBQ. The new 10m x 4m swimming
pool is set in the gardens of the Finca and there is easy access via a
terracotta pathway. It is for the exclusive use of guests to the
Gate House and the owners of the property who use it infrequently.
Alhaurin
el Grande is a typical Andalucian market town which retains much of its
'Spanish' identity. It is just a few minutes drive and you will find
a wide selection of Banks, shops, supermarkets, bars & restaurants
- many serving excellent local Tapas at very reasonable prices.
The
Gate House provides a comfortable base from which to explore this fascinating
area of Southern Spain. There is much to see and, as well as relaxing
and taking things easy in the warm Andalucian sunshine.
