Andalucia inland holiday rental villa details
VILLA LOCATION and NEARBY FACILITIES
WHY CHOOSE VILLA GARETH?
Choose Villa Gareth, and you will not be disappointed, for you will find a truly special place of panoramic beauty and peace, secluded and tranquil but not remote, for it offers the prospect of visiting the Coast or just relaxing by your own Private Pool, perfect for exploring Rural Spain on Foot or by Car.
It is set within its own Garden and Olive Trees, midway between the two White Villages of Casarabonela and Alozaina, in the spectacular mountain region of the SIERRA de las NEIVES, Andalucia.
Malaga Airport, Marbella and the Coast are only 45 minutes drive away. The nearest large town is Alora, also nearby are the spectacular El Chorro Lakes where boating, fishing and swimming can be enjoyed
We recommend that a car will be essential.
WHY WE CHOSE VILLA GARETH
We decided to buy a property in this area because it is renowned for its outstanding beauty and quite simply; we fell in love with the fabulous views, which surround the Villa and stretch, uninterrupted as far as the eye can see. In fact the area is so special it is protected by the Reservar de la Biosfere; a sort of Spanish equivalent to our National Trust and as such it will remain unspoilt for many years to come.
We feel very lucky to have found this special little bit of Real Spain.
When you choose Villa Gareth you will find a friendly and comfortable home, from which to base your holiday.
It really is the perfect location, allowing you to not only choose your own pace but incorporate as much or as little variation into your holiday as you wish.
WHAT SORT OF HOLIDAY COULD THIS BE?
Well, it will appeal to YOU, if like us you dont want the continual crowds and noisy night life, all of the time.
At Villa Gareth you could chill out and relax, spend some time just taking in the views and enjoying the luxury of your own Pool.
In the evening you could enjoy a meal in the local Hotel Restaurant situated just 10 mins away and when your batteries are charged you could explore the nearby White Mountain Villages of Casarabonela and Alozaina where numerous Shops and typical Spanish Bars can be found.
Later you could take in some Sightseeing, maybe a short drive to the coast or even a trip to Gibraltar.
From the Villa, a scenic trip to Marbella will take approximately 45 mins Where you can rub shoulders with the rich and famous and if its retail therapy you crave then a visit to Puerto Banus is a must.
Malaga is a beautiful city and in contrast a day at the El Chorro lakes would provide swimming, fishing and boating too.
The choice of Golf courses is tremendous and to get a real feel of Spanish life there is always a Spanish Feria taking place in one of the White Mountain villages, during the Summer months
With the weather not presenting any problems, you could take a picnic on a leisurely mountain walk, where you may encounter, a solitary ,”Spanish Hombre” with his Donkey or even a Shepherd leading his Goats over the ancient mountain tracks
Now truly in the holiday swing, you could venture a little further a field in search of Spanish history at Granada, Alhambra or Ronda, alternatively enjoy your favourite activities.
Whatever you wish your holiday to include you can be sure Villa Gareth will be the most comfortable and perfectly based location to choose.
