These cottages (casitas) were creatively renovated by their architect owner from ancient Andaluz farm buildings, making them both spacious and practical. Away from the main house, each of the casitas is quiet and private, but also close enough to be perfect for groups and large family holidays. Rent any one or in any combination of the three cottages (see separate entries for La Concha and El Azahar).

Set amidst olive, orange and lemon groves, they each have their own individual character. You can walk from your door through the surrounding trees and beyond to the river Guadalfeo.

With private, sheltered patios and acres of olive terraces, the casitas provide a safe environment for children. There is no traffic except for visitor’s cars. Cars are parked under a shade roof.

There is easy access to large roof terrace which overlooks the olive and lemon groves, and beyond to the mountains. Another garden level patio has a barbecue for eating outside on summer evenings. The pretty swimming pool is set against the hillside amongst scented white oleanders. Share it on summer evenings with skimming swallows, or in May, gaze up at a snowy peak whilst you swim. You can picnic in the shade of an olive tree, or just lie in the sun and read a book from the well-stocked bookshelves.

Dawn says: "WE stayed here in April. It was divine. Isolated, quiet, beautiful. Surrounded by mountains, great views. Roof terrace was so enticing it was hard to draw ourselves away. The surrounding countryside is gorgeous. Preferred shopping in Lanjaron to Orgiva. Only minor complaint was the standard and amount of cutlery which definirely needed replacing. BUT it hasnt stopped us booking a return trip. We arrive Friday - hooray. Cant wait. Its a testament to the position, the Casita and the ambience that this is the first time we have ever returned to the same place......... Magic."
