What a wonderfully peaceful retreat! Paloma was brilliant when we needed to change times, and always answered messages quickly.The pictures do not do justice to the property, which is spacious and very comfortable. We had a lovely holiday and would love to come again.

Paloma was great, always ready to help with anything. The pool which is really a plunge pool was just the thing when you need cooling down. The track leading to the property can be challenging but think of it as an adventure! It was so peaceful and secluded just what we were looking for. The view was amazing!!

Lovely stay

We had a wonderful time here. The surroundings are so quiet and you have a lot of privacy. Get your groceries before you come though since you are not close to any stores. The view from the pool is amazing and the water in the pool is nice and refreshing on a hot day. Both Paloma and José Manuel were very helpful and easy to reach.

The hosts are friendly, responsive, and quick to reply. They were also very flexible with both check-in and check-out, even though we had to wait for somebody to meet up with us.The house is located in a beautiful, peaceful countryside setting. However, keep in mind that the nearest town, Álora, is about 35–40 minutes away, with most of the drive being on gravel roads. In the opposite direction, the nearest towns are around 50 minutes away. If you need groceries or anything else, be prepared for a fairly long drive of minimum 30-40 min.The kitchen is functional but a little sparsely equipped, so if you enjoy cooking, you may find that some basic kitchen utensils and equipment are missing.We experienced quite a few wasps and ants during our stay. We had to be very careful to put away all food immediately and clean up even the smallest crumbs, as ants would otherwise appear very quickly.We stayed here in July, when temperatures were above 40C every day. Without air conditioning, the house became too warm for us, and there was no real place to cool down. Because of this, we would not recommend staying here during the hottest part of the summer.There is a small pool where you can cool off, but it gets dirty quite quickly and cannot easily be cleaned.

Nous avons apprécié cet hébergement aménagé avec gout, un peu éloigné de tout. Certes, cet éloignement, nous l'avons recherché. Par contre le temp annoncé pour rejoindre Alora ou Almogia est erroné . Ne vous y trompez pas, la route - disons plutôt la piste - n'est pas faite pour tout véhicules et ne permet pas de rouler à des vitesses au-delà de 20 à 30 km/h. La nature environnante est merveilleuse, fin mai- début juin. Pour les amateurs et observateurs de ciel étoilés, le site s'y prête très bien. Nous avons une remarque négative concernant la piscine. Ce n'en est pas une. C'est un petit bassin, à mon avis, impropre à l'utilisation. Juste une pompe à eau équipé d'un petit filtre (aucun filtrage sur sable) et un diffuseur de chlore pour seul équipement. Pas de skinner, donc une masse d'insectes mort à retirer au quotidien. Pas de trempette pour nous. Reste à signaler le manque cruel de zones d'ombres. Elles sont pratiquement inexistantes et il peut faire très chaud en Andalousie.

Abgeschiedenheit und Ruhe

Ich hatte einen tollen Aufenthalt in La Loma! Ich hatte nach einem Ferienhaus gesucht, dass einen eigenen Pool hat und freistehend ist. Genau das finden Sie hier! Ich habe die Zeit hier sehr genießen können, um mal wieder runterzukommen und den Stress abfallen zu lassen. In der Nachbarschaft in 100en Metern Entfernung hört man ab und zu mal ein Radio oder die Hunde bellen, aber ansonsten ist es still. Je nach Windrichtung starten und landen Flugzeuge, die Lärmentwicklung ist aber zu verkraften. Achten sie bei der Anreise auf die exakte Eingabe der Koordinaten, so werden sie keine Probleme bei der Fahrt haben. Bis auf das letzte Stück in Begleitung mit dem Hausverwalter fahren Sie auf befestigten Straßen. Ich habe alles vorgefunden, wie es beschrieben war! Die Sonne schien von morgens 9:30 Uhr bis abends um 21 Uhr (Reisezeit Ende August), was ein ganztägiges liegen auf der Terrasse ermöglichte, mit regelmäßigen Gängen in den kleinen Pool. Zum schwimmen ist dieser nicht geeignet, aber zur Abkühlung allemal! Ich kann das Objekt allen empfehlen, die gerne in der Natur sind, Selbstverpflegung mögen, Ameisen u. ä. nicht stören und auf den Komfort eines Sternehotels verzichten können. Wer entspannt und ohne Hektik Urlaub in einem rustikalen, aber gepflegtem Haus machen möchte, ist hier wunderbar aufgehoben! Besonderer Dank geht an Paloma und Jose Manuel, die mich bei Fragen und bei der Ankunft super betreut haben! Danke, für diesen einzigartigen Aufenthalt! Bis bald.

Lugar perfecto para desconectar

Tranquilidad con vistas, entorno natural, para estar muy a gusto. La pequeña piscina perfecta para el verano, incluso en los días más tórridos, casi se pasa frío en ella. Y luego las tumbonas tienen zona de sombra, muy bien. Para llegar el coche tiene que estar en buenas condiciones. Viniendo desde Fuente Amarga hay menos pista. Desde Álora hay bastante más pista, y subidas largas. Mejor con coche alto, aunque el mío es "extra-bajo" y pude pasar bien, vigilando en algunos puntos. Estando en el campo, hay que controlar las hormigas, y las cochinillas de la humedad en las zonas pertinentes de la casa, pero sin mucho problema. El día que nos quedamos de relax sin salir de la finca, posiblemente el mejor de todas las vacaciones.

dépaysement assuré

Superbe vue sur el Torcal. logement isolé, au calme. Séjour très ensoleillé (entre 39 et 44 °). La "piscine" (2.5 x 1.5 - P : 1 m) permet de se rafraichir.

Bijzonder verblijf op charmant huis inclusief berg

We hebben een maand als stel in Casa Loma doorgebracht. Paloma's huis bevindt zich op een berg die deel uitmaakt van een groter gebied dat tot het privé-domein van de eigenaar behoort. Je komt daarom praktisch niemand tegen als je een uurtje gaat wandelen, erg bijzonder. Het uitzicht vanaf het terras is werkelijk fenomenabel! Het huis zelf is eenvoudig en dat heeft zijn charme voor wie daar van houdt. We waren er in februari dus hebben de open haard veel aangehad. Er lag een voorraad hout die we hebben opgestookt en daarna hebben we zelf ook hout gesprokkeld, wat best leuk was. Enkele tips: - de matras-tip van een eerdere review hebben we ter harte genomen en dat is ons ook goed bevallen. - doe uitgebreid boodschappen voordat je komt, inclusief alles wat nodig is om te leven (wasmiddel, toiletpapier, drinkwater) en koken, incl. kruiden e.d.). De dichtsbijzijnde grotere supermarkt is op 25 min. rijden. - neem een waterkokertje mee, dat is sneller thee zetten dan mbv de electrische pitten - houdt rekening met de wat belabberde kwaliteit van de Spaanse bergwegen, zeker na hevige regenval - de douche is voor snelle douchers, maar het watertekort in Spanje vind ik dan ook niet iets om te negeren, ook als bezoeker Casa Loma is een zeer bijzondere plek met zeer veel mogelijkheden om tot rust te komen!

Excelente para desconectar

Todo perfecto, y Paloma y Juan muy atentos en todo momento. La casa está bastante aislada, pero es lo que buscábamos. El acceso es un poco sorprendente por camino de tierra pero en cualquier caso no tiene grandes dificultades. Y la casa está superbién, mucho más grande que en las imágenes. El entorno fenomenal.

Endroit calme et appaisant

Nous avons passé un séjour très très agréable, très calme très reposant et dépaysant. Une vue magnifique sur les collines et une très belle vue du Torcale depuis la piscine. Paloma est très prévenante et Juan est de bon service.Il n'y à pas de clim mais c'est inutile , la maison est bien isolé et le soir il y a un petit vent qui permet de rafraichir et de passer des nuit très reposante. Nous reviendrons surement L'an prochain.

Agréable séjour au milieu d’Un parc naturel

Grande et belle maison équipée et aménagée dans la pure tradition andalouse dans un cadre magnifique. Il vous faudra faire un peu de route pour accéder aux principales villes Cordou, Grenade, et Séville ( environ 2 heures ). Ronda, Málaga et Antequerra sont plus accessibles. Endroit à recommander si vous voulez passer des vacances tranquilles et vous ressourcer en pleine nature. De plus, la propriétaire Paloma est très sympa. On voudrait bien y retourner un jour.
