We had a lovely stay, thank you so much

We had a lovely stay, thank you so much. It was a great property and the host was friendly and helpful from start to finish. They had really thought of everything you could possibly need and there were extras too that we didn't expect...our children loved the dogs and hens for instance and the facilities outside in the barbecue/pool area were amazing. The drive to the house from Ardales made it really exciting and we loved it was so secluded.

Very nice house with big garden

The house is beautifully situated in the hills close to Ardales and has everything you need: a great kitchen, three TVs, comfortable beds, a lovely terrace, and a very spacious garden with a BBQ, extra refrigerator, outdoor shower and toilet, sun loungers, parasol, etc. Everything works. If there's a problem, the very friendly host Antonio resolves it immediately for example, a broken pair of scissors had already been replaced that afternoon. We were there in February, and it can be a bit chilly then. There's a great wood-burning stove, and for €20 we got more than enough firewood to keep us warm for a week. Antonio even provided a free fire-building course . There's also a good, portable electric radiator, which we only used briefly in the mornings. The pool, with all sorts of features including a bubble bath, was fantastic, but we found it a bit too cold for a dip. The village of Ardales is within easy reach, and a few kilometers further on is the Caminito del Rey, a must-do.

Private paradise in the countriside.

Very private and beautiful place. Personal garden with lemon- and orange trees. Fish, canary-birds and chicken with the opportunity to collect fresh eggs every morning. I also liked the pool (despite it was not heated) and the outdoor kitchen.

My stay at Antonio's place was fantastic

My stay at Antonio's place was fantastic. The location was serene and stunning. The house had almost everything needed for a week-long stay. Antonio promptly addressed any issues that arose. We overcame the language barrier by using a translation app.To further enhance the experience, providing complimentary hand soap and shampoo for all guests would be a great addition.

Antonio is very nice person

Antonio is very nice person. It is a lovely house with lots of peace. The dogs and other animals are very friendly. Lots of fruit trees and lovely pool and backyard. There is a long dirt road that takes you from the town to the property but it wasn’t bad. It is a perfect place to relax go on walks and enjoy nature.

What a stunning place! We had a fabulous holiday

What a stunning place! We had a fabulous holiday. The highlight was the large pool, we also loved having a fridge freezer next to the pool (perfect for a cool drink after a swim). The house is comfortable and has everything you need. Antonio was a great host, very responsive and despite the language barrier we managed to communicate ok using online translate. The track leading to the house is a bit hair raising in places, but there's very little traffic on it. We would thoroughly recommend.

This is one of the most beautiful plots we have ever stayed at! The perfect stay for a family needin

This is one of the most beautiful plots we have ever stayed at! The perfect stay for a family needing quality time together. Peaceful and picturesque. Huge plot that also has fruit, veg and chickens that you can help yourself to. Stunning flowers and smells day and night, and the stars were so bright and clear. Beautiful lakes 15 min away, all beaches and tourist spots easily accessible 50 mins away. You definitely need a car and must be confident and comfortable driving on country dirt tracks. Antonio and his wife were so welcoming and helpful and visited the plot daily to look after the crop and chickens and dogs that stay on the outskirts, this did not disturb our stay at all. I would highly recommend and would love to return.

Paradise for a relaxing vacation

The location is perfect with a lovely big swimmingpool, a great yard, beautiful views and a real homecoming house. The way to the house is adventurous but no problem. The host Antonio makes it really a nice place to stay. Always busy with his garden and his animals and you can really ask him anything. Ardales is a nice little Village and many things to do in the surroundings. The house is very complete, nice beds, multiple tv's, good kitchen and various places to sit and relax in- and outside. The shower curtain. It is not so steady anymore. And the beachumbrellas need an upgrade.

Antonio and his wife were fantastic hosts

Antonio and his wife were fantastic hosts. We were more than thrilled with the location and warm welcome! Our 1,5 year old son had the time of his life picking fresh eggs in the morning and oranges and lemons for juice. Also the singing with the birds and petting the dogs was part of our daily program. The location is, to us, perfect! Malaga and beaches within 45 mins drive. Hidden in a beautiful and calm valley 3km from Ardales. Facilities are more than described. Great BBQ place with fully equipped kitchen (yes, with fridge convenient located next to the pool). Also baby cot and high chair are available and toys / outside playhouse for the kids. Thank you for having us!

Een paradijs!

De grote tuin is een juweeltje. Een prachtig groot zwembad met jacuzzi. Verschillende chill hoekjes. De planten, de bloemen allemaal prachtig. In de grote tuin staan veel fruitbomen, waar we van konden plukken. Vijgen-citroen-sinaasappel-amandel bomen. De sinaasappels waren helaas nog niet rijp. Ook tomaten-aubergine-groene peperplanten. We konden iedere ochtend verse eieren rapen bij de kippen. Vanuit de tuin kan je een superleuk pad bewandelen, dat loopt naar een kleine waterval. Het beekje stroomt onder langs het huis. Je zit helemaal vrij in de grote tuin. Alles was in 1 woord prachtig!De eigenaar Antonio doet heel erg zijn best en gaf ons de eerste dag allerlei groenten uit de tuin. Hij reageert snel en is superaardig. De douche is heerlijk warm en de bedden lagen top!

excellent séjour passé chez Antonio, environnement magnifique,grande piscine , plusieurs coins repas disponibles , proche des centres d intérêts phare de l'Andalousie. Antonio a été un hôte exceptionnel, réactif lorsque nous avons eu besoin de lui, toujours le sourire qui nous a même chaques jours donnes des légumes et oeufs de son potager. Le village est également typique où l'on trouve tout ce dont on a besoin.
