| Cortijo
Castaño is a luxurious holiday home with 3 bedrooms and swimming pool
in the heart of the Alpujarra Natural Park on the southern slopes of the Sierra
Nevada. It is situated 5 minute's walk above Capileira, an attractive white-washed
village with a good selection of bars, restaurants and craft shops. It is also
the perfect location for setting out on some of the most interesting treks in
the area. Cortijo Castaño is a beautifully built house, in the traditional
style and fashioned from natural stone from the region. Both exterior and interior
are very well maintained and all materials and furnishings are of the highest
quality. The house has three bedrooms
all of which have their own en-suite
bathroom. The lounge has a cosy sitting area and open fireplace and there is also
central heating throughout. There is plenty of space for relaxing outdoors
with stunning views of the Sierra Nevada and the coastal strips of the Costa Tropical.
On clear days the view even extends to the Moroccan Rif mountains on the horizon. The
large 10 x 5 metre swimming pool is situated below the house and is surrounded
by a terraced area with garden furniture and sun loungers. There is also a kitchen
area by the pool with refrigerator, sink and barbecue as well as a covered area
for eating al fresco. It is a lovely place for enjoying the long evenings and
the star-filled Andalusian sky at night. There is a separate entrance door
near the pool area which leads to another apartment in the villa where the Spanish
owner lives. She is a very discreet and hospitable person and takes care of the
pool and the gardens. There is parking space for several cars next to the
house. Granada and the coast are a 75 minute drive.
