The
Pool House is a charming and unique little 'Casita' built within the grounds
of Finca la Paz (The Farmhouse of Peace) in rural Andalucia. There are
spectacular views towards the Sierra Nevada mountains and the town of Alhaurin
el Grande. From early Spring the heady scent of orange blossom is
in the air and, later, when the fruit is ripe, guests are free to pick
their own oranges and lemons etc. There are also figs, olives, grapes,
pomegranates etc., all of which flourish in the fertile valley. The
climate is superb with an average of 320 days sunshine a year. Long
hot Summers and mild Winters make this the ideal retreat for independent
travellers at any time of year.
The
Casita has one bedroom with twin beds, shower/wc and a small, but comfortable
lounge with dining area and open plan kitchen. It is attractively
furnished and equipped for self catering. Outside are two terraces
with garden furniture and BBQ. The new Swimming Pool is for the exclusive
use of guests and is right in front of the Casita. It provides a
welcome 'cool off' during the long hot Summer.
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 can find
a wide selection of shops, Banks, Bars & Restaurants, many serving
excellent local Rapas at very reasonable prices.
All
in all a holiday at The Pool House can be whatever you want. Simply
relax by the pool and enjoy the warm Andalucian sunshine or hire a car
and explore this fascinating and historic part of Southern Spain.
The resident owners are on site to help with any holiday requirements or
problems.
