About this property

Period Village House, Private Pool, Beautiful Countryside Setting. WIFI, TV etc.

This lovely period stone farmhouse villa, has been renovated to a very high standard with exposed beams and tiled floors throughout, and offers flexible accommodation whilst maintaining its wonderful character. A paved pathway leads up to the front door of the cottage, shaded by a vine-covered pergola, which opens into the dining hall. There is a double bedroom with ensuite shower room. An open aspect window overlooks the enchanting mountains surrounding the valley of Serena. A second double bedroom has the same lovely views. Adjacent is the large family bathroom. The character kitchen is well equipped and a stable door opens onto the pool terrace, which is surrounded by a walled garden. From the inner hall the staircase leads upstairs to the comfortable sitting room, a further double or twin bedroom & a single bedroom. One bedroom has views over the mountains and the other overlooks the pool. Doors open onto the upper terrace, with its stunning views of mountains and orange groves. There is no passing traffic, thus the house and its terraces and gardens are very peaceful.

Decevant
Point positif Propriétaire disponible par mail uniquement Points négatifs Gîte se trouvant à 3 kms du lieu indiqué dans un lieu dit desservi par une petite route de montagne Machine à laver et lave vaisselle qui tombent en panne 2 jours après notre arrivée : non remplacés : nous notons que le propriétaire nous a laissé les clés de son logement pour palier aux pannes : mais cela nous obligeait à traverser la maison, sortir dans la rue avec escaliers et à devoir porter un plateau de vaisselle et linge plusieurs fois / jour ( nous étions 7) Piscine dangereuse et en très mauvais état : notre fils s'est ouvert la cuisse des sa première baignade nécessitant des points de suture Piscine mal entretenue durant séjour Chiens aboyent toute la nuit Photos du gîte sélectionnées : ne montrent pas les maisons en ruinent avoisinantes, caravanes etc... Ce n'est pas du haut de gamme ! Loin de là.

Thanks Geoff & Sue
It was a topstay in serena. The house with pool is very, very nice and typical for region, you’ve everything you need to cook in the house, good WiFi, the’re 2 terraces, bbq, espresso machine, shower outside. Serena is little hamlet, 35 min from mojacar/playa, very nice drive to it. The owner Geoff and Sue were very helpful and hospitable: easy to communicate by mail, lots of information about region, (top)restaurants, very lovely beaches, etc… helpful in case of problems, last day we could stay till 14 h since our plane was late evening. Thanks!!

Why they chose this property

We were looking to purchase a home in the sun, close to beaches, golf courses and ski slopes, but not in a resort. We wanted an old house that we could renovate, in a quiet Spanish village, with enough space for a garden and a pool. Serena fitted the bill! We completed renovations in 2005, built an annexe in 2006, and commenced holiday lettings in 2007. The Cortijo has been full every summer since then and is used by family and friends at other times. We have even had lettings at Christmas/New Year, when the mild, sunny weather is great for golfing or walking holidays. This is the time that the almond trees start to blossom, and the orange trees are full of fruit.

What makes this property unique

Peace and tranquillity! Far from the madding crowd, yet near enough to all amenities. No traffic noise. No traffic! Great walking and cycling, both flat and hilly. Watching the shadows climb the mountain at dusk, with a glass of chilled Rioja Blanco. Pure magic. Watching Iberian Ibex on the mountain at sunrise, with a cup of tea. Having been awoken by the village cockerel. Siestas! Wild mountain thyme. Night swimming. Good food and good company. Who needs more?
