Avis Semi-Detached Cottage with Pool, Private Terraces, Garden and Mountain Views

Nice traditional Spanish farmhouse within 5 minutes walk of Lubrín which is a pleasant small village with a couple of good tapas bars and shops

The location is stunning, so quiet yet only a 5 min walk down a track to the village which has 3 bars, 2 supermarkets and 2 bread shops. Very friendly and traditional. The chips at La taska are awesome. Food and alcohol is cheap, lunch for 4 was 28 euros. The pool was great to cool down in and we had 3 different areas to sit in as the sun moved around. Comfortable rustic accommodation, very cool inside as wooden shutters kept the heat out and there is a ceiling fan in the bedroom. There are 2 apartments on the ground floor and the owner John's accommodation is above although he doesn't live on the premises. Then a separate apartment to the side, each had its own own private area/s. The flowers all around are so pretty and you can walk for miles or relax in the sun, the breeze was pleasant in late June and needed in the hot sun. It isn't easy to find and the roads are windy but it's worth it when you get there. Not recommended to arrive in the dark. In daylight the views driving through the mountains are spectacular. About 45 minutes drive to Garrucha and Mojacar where the sea was warm with great waves to play in. There is also a Lidl in Garrucha to stock up. Mojacar Marina is a great course to play for high and low h/c. Aguilion is an hours drive but we'll worth it, spectacular views and it's set in the mountains. A car is needed because it's so remote. The owner, John, was very efficient when we needed help with anything and always at the end of the phone. I would recommend this as a beautiful rustic get away to relax and enjoy traditional Spanish life with the locals. We were lucky to have nice couples staying at the same time, Mike and Caz who we shared a drink with on their last night and Jeanette and Peter who loved the local walks. A bit of a gem, only real downside is finding it.

Knus ingericht met een gezellige open haard in de woonkamer. Er stond een welkomstpakketje voor ons klaar met de eerste levensbehoeften. De ligging is prachtig, bijna geen andere huizen in de buurt, maar toch dicht bij het dorpje. Je moet wel goed ter been zijn omdat het erg steil is, en deels ongeplaveid met losliggende stenen. In het dorpje zijn 3 tapasbarretjes waar je voor heel weinig geld heerlijke tapas kunt eten. David, die op het terrein woont, is supervriendelijk en heel behulpzaam. Als je iets aan hem vraagt regelt hij het meteen. Helaas is er één groot, maar heel belangrijk minpunt: het bed. Het matras is zo oud dat de metalen veren er pijnlijk doorheen steken, en het bed piept en kraakt.

The perfect place for total rest and relaxation.everything provided for you when you arrive including a snacks and a drink on arrival.perfecr hosts.Paul & Sara are always there to help or have a chat.I will be returning soon for another stay and to enjoy the village

We have just returned from a two week holiday at this property. We had initially only booked one week here and then a week on the coast at Mojacar, but on arriving in Mojacar and seeing how busy and hectic it was we returned to Lubrin for a second week. The property is now being managed by Paul & Sarah who are a very friendly and welcoming couple, nothing is to much trouble for them. They have a very good knowledge of the local area and were able to recommend some excellent restaurants in the area ( we especially liked La Montana which is situated on the road between Lubrin & Bedar). We stayed the first week in the main house & the second week in the 2 bed converted outbuilding. Both properties were very good with all the necessary equipment for a self catering holiday. We especially liked the 2 bed property which was modern and spacious and had its own plunge pool. The area has some excellent walks,and you will find written guides in your room to 5 routes, as it was July and very hot so we only did the short 7km central walk, but we hope to return next year in May to try some of the longer ones. The property is only a short 5 minute walk in to the beautiful white washed town of Lubrin, here you will find all you need for day to day living including bars,a couple of food stores,2 bakers, a weekly market and an ATM if you need some cash. We would recommend this property to anyone who would like a holiday in rural Spain away from the hustle and bustle of normal life. We would just like to say a big thank you again to Paul &Sarah for looking after us and making our holiday such a special one ( we really enjoyed our evening spent with you in La Taska watching the football and having a few beers). Good luck for the future and stay in touch,hope to see you next year. Nigel & Tina

Enjoyable stay in an away from it all location. Used as a base to explore the area. Lubrin is lovely and a reflection of an authentic Spanish village. Hire car needed since this villa is in a more remote location. The owners Sarah and Paul were very friendly,helpful and accommodating whilst respecting the privacy we needed. The views were amazing and we managed the perfect balance between lazy days and sightseeing.
