Bed linen is fully inclusive in your stay and longer stays will be fully serviced. I must add that internally the house is kept immaculately.
Outside:
There is an acre of private grounds to wander and explore. There is a garden area with flowers and shrubs, an orchard area, and loads of space for ball games. There is ample room for a barbeque by the pool. The pool is large and attractively shaped with easy access low steps at the far end. There are only one or two neighbours within 50m and neither are directly overlooking or at least are far enough away not to notice. This is not the usual off plan urbanised property, and yet offers restaurant facilities and is an easy 5 mins stroll to the lake side. The fishing is good and licences can be obtained locally.
The pool (10m x 6) is saline which means no horrid chlorine smells or blond hair turning green. The air-conditioning is top of the range and alternates as the central heating system in winter. The house is particularly suitable for the elderly as internally it is all on one level with just two steps down to be poolside.
Walking, horse riding, cycling and hiking around the National Park is excellent and a visit to El Torcal is well worth a trip, the walks are easy around this fabulous natural feature. Drop into Antequera for lunch and to see the museums and art galleries (not mondays), shops and bars. There are numerous watersports at Torre del Mar and Caleta and a Water Park available at Torre del Mar. Scuba diving both at Torre and Torrox Costa on the way to Nerja. The Nerja Caves are pretty spectacular and if you get the chance to book a concert then don't hesitate. Nerja is an interesting town to visit stop off at one of the beach side restaurants along the coast road back in Torrox. Don’t forget the huge Sunday flea market in Nerja too as well as the regular markets to be found in every town locally.
An excellent day out is Granada, the Alhambra, General Life and Gardens needs booking but is worth it, especially the Palace of the Nazarrenes. However the dead heat of Granada mid day is to be avoided.A different tour is to the quaint old town of Alhama de Granada with its’ stunning gorges, drive up through the Zafaria Pass opposite the Villa and enter a higher plateau of offering a different landscape. Have lunch in the Plaza at Alhama and after a stroll around and a visit to the main sites of interest, stop off at the Roman Spa then take the road towards Aluminacar. This route offers the most amazing descent down to the Coast. After passing though an innocuous pine forrest and country park you will suddenly be confronted by the most stunning view down towards the distant sea. Return via the motorway or if you have the energy along the scenic old Coast Road to Torre del Mar and then inland and home. There are always the Fabulous Historical Cities of Malaga, Seville and Cordoba to visit to, just under a couple of hours drive it is worth leaving early.
If you like clubbing just to along to the east end of the Torre del Mar sea front, there are numerous beach front restaurants and ice cream parlours too.It's well worth a drive to the Lecrin Valley which has become a mecca for alternative health therapies and crafts.Then there is the Rhonda the fantastic cliff top inland town famous for its ancient bridge and buildings, closer to home we have our own mini Rhonda just up the road visit Comares up in the clouds or closer to God.
Locally there are numerous little villages and towns to explore such as Vinuela, Alcaucin, Periana Canillas de Aceituno, Salares, Alfarnete, Mondron, Rio Gordo. Velez Malaga is known as the Capital of the Axarquia and has numerous shops bars and restaurants visit the Old part of Town for an appreciate of the place.
There are just so many amazingly diverse things to do and see.
