Unique setting in a Mediterranean Oak Woodland.
Peaceful mountain location set in the Sierra Tejeda's. Tranquil gardens to relax and unwind in.
La Carpa has straw bale walls and a triple tented roof making it cool in the summer months and cosy in the winter months, such is the insulating affect of straw, making it a very comfortable environment. Open plan interior, with bespoked four poster bed,bunk beds and sofa bed,storage draws, dinning table and chairs, built in kitchen area with microwave and fridge. You have a bathroom with shower and toilet. Out side you can relax by the spa pool, or splash into it down the slide. Children will have a great time climbing into the play tower were their imaginations can run wild!....There is a wild garden with pond, to explore and discover plants, mini beasts, birds and fish. Have a game of boules or snakes and ladders. Feeling energetic, there is Archery in the garden and bikes to rent. Or Simply relax as this is just the place to do it.

Når solen ikke varmer er det slet ikke sjovt at bo med to små børn i en øde halmhytte på bjerget.
Når der er dårligt vejr i april med regn og kulde er det ikke noget sjovt sted at være med små børn. Hytten var desuden ret beskidt. Vi kørte til kysten efter 3 dage selvom vi havde booket 9.

Une Oasis en plein dans les montagnes d'Andalousie
Nous avons passé 3 semaines inoubliables. Ici vous ne manquerez de rien et surtout pas de soleil !! Malgré un climat aride nos deux petites filles de 5 et 8 ans n'ont jamais été dérangées par la chaleur qui avoisine souvent 40°C en plein après-midi. Tout est fait pour votre confort et pour vos enfants si vous en avez. La location est très fonctionnelle et à tous les équipements nécessaires pour passer de bonnes vacances. La piscine est très sécurisante, même pour les petits qui ne savent pas nager, la cabane de pirate offre un espace de jeu en plein air mais ombragé à toute heure. Pour les amateurs il y a un terrain de pétanque ainsi que la possibilité de faire du tir à l'arc (matériel pro). Les propriétaires se sont montrés très serviables et toujours à notre écoute. Un des vélos n'étant pas adapté à notre petite, Alan a monté une selle sur un vélo adulte afin que nous puissions nous promener tous ensemble. Ce Monsieur étant aussi un excellent musicien, nous avons eu le plaisir de pouvoir écouter quelques ballades à la guitare au bord de la piscine (éclairée le soir) ce qui renforçait le côté déjà romantique de l'endroit, bref le paradis. Nous recommandons cette location pour les familles avec ou sans enfants et nous remercions encore Alan et Lynn pour leur accueil, leur discrétion et tous leurs bons conseils.
