el sequer, a former 19th C farm building used to produce raisins, has been lovingly converted into a cosy and charming self-catering holiday rental cottage for 4 people. This unique holiday home has been carefully restored, respecting the original architecture and materials such as stone walls, terracotta tiles, beamed bamboo ceilings, warm Mediterranean colours etc., combined with modern installations and equipment (heating, air-conditioning, tv, cd/DVD, internet access, library, board-games, bicycles, etc) for maximum comfort.
El Sequer has two double bedrooms: Segaria with a large queen-sized bed and Rectoria with twin beds, both overlooking the secluded landscaped garden and pool. There is a full bathroom with hydro-massage bath and shower and welcome toiletries. Quality bed & bath linen is provided as well as blankets and duvets for winter lets.
The spacious but cosy open plan living – dining area has a comfortable sofa, arm chairs and a log-burning stove for use in winter. The dining alcove has lovely views of the garden and valley. The original well separates this area from the fully equipped kitchen (electric hob, oven, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge-freezer, toaster, kettle, coffeemaker, mixer. etc )
Outdoors, a porch runs the length of the house, where under the shade of a large loquat tree, delicious al fresco meals can be enjoyed. From this magnificent viewpoint, guests can enjoy the panoramic views of the valley and surrounding low mountain ranges while sipping a glass of wine at sunset in this truly peaceful and beautiful location.
The secluded and well-kept garden has a flood-lit swimming pool, barbecue and child’s playground, separated by an aromatic jasmine hedge from the fruit orchard, where oranges, tangerines, lemons, cherries and aromatic herbs can be picked when in season.
The owners personally meet & greet you providing a wealth of information about the area.
If you want a little bit of “heaven on earth”, El Sequer is the place for you!
mediterraneo rural is a small family run business comprising two charming country-style self-catering holiday homes: El Sequer and Xaymaca. Both are located in the picturesque Spanish village of Benimeli, a few kilometres inland from Denia and Javea on the Costa Blanca, in the lush citrus growing Marina Alta region of Alicante, Spain. Known as “casas rurales” or rural houses in Spain, they are a similar concept to French gîtes. Jenny and Oswaldo, the Anglo-Spanish owners, have painstakingly and meticulously renovated both these buildings to very high standards, converting them into two stunning country holiday homes, featured in prestigious guide books and awarded the maximum category by the Spanish Tourism Authorities.
