About this property

Beautiful Apartment In An Old Spanish House - Ideal For Granada & The Coast

The house is located in the stunning Lecrin Valley near to Granada in Andalucia, Spain and is registered with the Andalucian Tourist Board (No: VTAR/GR/00885)

The things our guests love about the apartment are:

- Spacious and clean - You can read all of the previous reviews of how clean and spacious the apartment is.

- Comfortable beds in a quiet village - Most of our guests comment on the good night's sleep they have.

- Attention to detail – We have now been hosting for over 7 years, so we know from experience that it is important to have good facilities and equipment and we do our best to think of your travelling needs.
Guests also love our guide book and mention it in their reviews.

- Ideally situated for visiting Granada and the Alhambra in one direction and the beaches of The Costa Tropical in the other (both 20 minutes away). The start of the Sierra Nevada National Park is just 5 minutes walk from the front door and the Alpujarras “white villages” are just 45 minutes away through beautiful countryside.

- Perfect if you enjoy walking, cycling, skiing, horse riding, photography etc.

What our guests say:
“The apartment is part of a beautifully restored home, occupied for over 200 years and typical of the style of old houses in Andalucia. The house surrounds a Moorish style internal patio, has many of the original features, a wonderful, large rooftop terrace with views over the mountains and all the facilities to make this a wonderful place to stay!”
Pat & Alan C - Hampshire

Interaction with Guests:
The apartment is part of a 200 year old house; As we live on the ground floor, we will be here to greet you and, are happy to answer any questions or help you with your plans.
We know that many guests arrive here after the shops have closed, so if you need any items of food or drink to keep you going, then please let us know and we will do our best to get them for you.

The Village:
The village is situated in the Lecrin Valley and is a mixture of old and new houses. We are within 5 minutes walking distance to Talara (sometimes mistakenly called Lecrin) with small supermarkets, a good butchers, restaurants, bars, banks, garages and a pharmacy.
During the Summer there is also an open air swimming pool only 2 minutes walk away.

The Area:
- Granada is 20 minutes away by car, with plenty of relatively cheap, safe, parking.
- The coast is 20 minutes in the other direction, with a range of beaches, from large with bars/restaurants on the beach (chiringuito’s), to small secluded coves with crystal clear water.
- The start of the Sierra Nevada National Park is 5 minutes walk from the house and we live in a valley full of orange, lemon, almond, walnut, avocado and pomegranate trees.
- The Alpujarras area with its famous “white villages” is a 30 minute drive away, through winding mountain roads, deep gorges and the remains of Moorish castles.

There are some laminated maps in the apartment to help you plan a day out, or of course you are more than welcome to ask us about any ideas you may have.

History:
Travelling south from Granada in the 7th Century the Moors reached a vast, fertile valley encompassed within a bowl of mountains. The land had everything they prized – good earth, free-flowing rivers and the natural fortification of the sierras. Captivated by its beauty, they named it El Valle de Lecrín – which is commonly interpreted by the locals today as “Valley of Happiness”.

Rates:
Prices vary depending on the season and the number of guests. The calendar shows the correct prices for 2 people. We are always interested to hear from people who would like to rent for a month or more and quite open to discussing favourable rates.

So lucky
This is a wonderful place in a wonderful setting. There is so much to do particularly if you want to be active. There is tourist places, tranquil places, beaches and mountains. Such a beautiful part of the world, made better by the help and support of Rob and Lorraine. They are permanently lucky but we will be also next year, when we will fully sample all the delights of this truly amazing place!

Excellent stay/experience
The property was excellent.....very comfortable, clean, we’ll equipped. Genuinely a lovely experience. Hosts were excellent......there if you needed them but also very discreet. We stayed a whole month and felt immediately ‘at home’. The location of the property was great. A few mins from the motorway (to get to the coast and Granada in 25 mins), and at the centre of the beautiful Lecrin valley. An all round excellent experience.

Gezellige en authentieke woning
De woning heb ik als heel gezellig en authentiek ervaren. Ik voelde er direct thuis. Een zitkamer en eetkamer en keuken, die met elkaar in verbinding staan en twee slaapkamers, een douche met toilet. Alles is goed verzorgd. De bovenste verdieping bevat een fraai terras met voldoende zitgelegenheid. Mondújar is een klein dorp, maar als je gaat wandelen kom je als snel uit in Lecrin, waar de nodige winkels zijn en restaurant. Kortom een ideale plek om vakantie te houden, Granada te bezoeken en de Sierra Nevada.

Fantastic house in an ideal spot for a cycling holiday.
Ideal location for cycling the sierras, 25 mins from granada and the coast provided plenty of cycling routes. The house was very clean and much larger than the the photos make out. We really enjoyed our stay and would gladly return!

Rustic but charming in a wonderful non tourist location
This was a super property where we stayed for a number of weeks in April 2019. The weather wasn't particularly good but it has a "pellet" fire which kept us warm. It has wonderful features and Lorraine and Rob went out of their way to make us welcome and supplied with information. Lecrin valley is half way between the coast and Granada so there is loads to see and do. The local people seem a bit distant at first but they are simply wonderful. We loved it
