Casa Nogal is an ideal house for families travelling with children as it is located very close to the playground and just 400m from the beach, it has a large garden (1,250m2) and fenced pool.
The house sits on a quiet street in the heart of the Roche estate, close to all the local amenities. Built on one floor, with a small annex, it sleeps up to 9 in 5 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms (the annex has a small single room and bathroom). The sitting/dining room has a large window overlooking the pool, and also opens onto a large covered terrace, with its own eating and sitting areas. From the outside, Casa Nogal may not be the prettiest house in our collection; but its main draws are its newly-built pool area and covered terrace, which are perfectly designed and positioned to take advantage of the local climatic conditions: the pool gets plenty of sun; and the terrace gets shade all day, except for at drinks time when the evening sun filters in through the pines! Nestled in close to the house, the pool and terrace are also well protected if there is any Levante wind, and there is a load of lawn space left (all visible from the house and terrace) for games!
The kitchen is small but well-equipped, with everything you will need. In the sitting room, there is large flat-screen TV (conveniently placed so it can be turned around and watched from the terrace!) with a selection of international channels available. There is a fixed-line broadband connection and a music system. There is off-road parking for two cars (although these can also be left on the street). The nearest beach access is 400m away, and includes a series of gentle steps down to the sand (all 8km of it!)
Accomodation at Casa Nogal is on one floor. This single floor is distributed with the kitchen and living area at one end and the bedroom wing at the other. The latter contains two double bedrooms (one with en suite bathroom), two twin bedrooms, and a second bathroom. The kitchen has a bar that opens through to the sitting/dining room, which in turn opens on to the large covered terrace and fenced pool beyond. The covered terrace has an eating area and a relaxing area, and there is a mobile BBQ. The sitting/dining room has a nice fireplace for the cooler months. The annex, which is separated from the main house by a small pathway and is accessed from the garden, contains a small single bedroom and separate shower room, which is useful for sandy beachcombers!
A walk of about 200m will take us to the local shop, pharmacy, a couple of bars and restaurants, and childrens’ playground. Roche also has its own tennis and padel courts and five-a-side football pitches. In the summer months, there are several beach bars/restaurants to choose from within walking distance, some of which are now staying open all year. A 5-minute drive will then provide you with a far larger selection of both bars and restaurants. The area offers an endless list of activities and if you book with us, we provide you with detailed information on all our recommendations, details on local amenities, and our up-to-date guide to the best of everything! You could spend a wonderful holiday here without a car, and just hire bikes; but, assuming you will have a car, it’s 15 minutes to Conil, 20 minutes to the hill-top village of Vejer-de-la-Frontera, 30 minutes to Cadiz, 40 minutes to Tarifa and Jerez, and 90 minutes to Seville, all of which are well worth visiting.
