Main points
Peaceful & private Surrounded by nature, with neighbours at a distance, the cottage is set at the centre of a hectare of private land. A few sheep & goats pass by below occasionally, that’s all. From the terrace you see no other houses, just the mountains, and no one sees you. Comfort The cottage is rustically stylish. It has a pine wood floor in living area and bedroom, chestnut beams, a large mosaic shower and quality furnishings. Facilities Mains electricity & water; wifi; double bedroom (bed is 1.50 x 1.90 m) with fitted wardrobe; fully equipped kitchen; all towels & bedding ; hairdryer; washing machine; Hergom cast-iron log stove; gas heater, double glazing; monitor screen with HDMI cable for connecting devices; books; private parking. Views Panoramic views of the mountains: the Mines of the Oath, Sierra Lújar, evergreen-covered Sierra Nevada. Situation The cottage faces south for the winter sun. It’s nicely situated in La Alpujarra's gentle La Taha mountain valley. Although only 15 minutes by car from the Poqueira Gorge (you can also walk between the two), the east-west valley of La Taha gets 5 hours more direct sunlight and is typically 3 to 4 degrees warmer. Easy access Drive straight into the property from the quiet local road and park near the cottage. Location & restaurants A 15-minute walk from the nicest country bar-restaurant in the area and 20 minutes or less walking distance to three hamlets (Mecina, Ferreirola & Atalbéitar). Direct access for car from a very quiet country lane and private parking. Pitres for all shopping is 3 km. Two routes in and out for driving west to Capileira & Granada, or east to Trevélez and beyond. For recommended cafés, bars & restaurants, see: Alpujarra restaurants Walking routes The best walks in La Alpujarra are all possible from here. The cottage is bordered by the public footpath described in La Gaseosa walk. |
