About this house rental

Beautiful country 'rustic' house approx. 20 minute drive from Malaga airport,and Marbella, consists of spacious lounge with fireplace, dining area and open plan kitchen, two double bedrooms and family bathroom. A separate Anexe / guest house provides the 3rd double bedroom, shower room, and new children's bedroom and shower room incl toilet makes up the 4th bedroom.
As well as the small fridge freezer in the kithcen there is also on the terrace a full American type fridge/freezer along with washing machine on the outside terrace.

The property is fully legal and registered with the Tourist Accommodation Vivienda Rural no. CTC-201625485.

A unique property for Spain in that its not the normal white painted villa but much more being as a full log cabin that is cool in the summer months and warm in the winter months.
Access to the truly stunning large covered terrace from the kitchen is the summer central living area for the whole property which includes gas barbie, outdoor kitchen, Heated Jacuzi, Pool Table, Dining and Lounge seating (sofas) areas with music system open log fire dart board, exercise bike and electric Yamaha keyboard.

From the outdoor swimming pool are views of the valley from a viewing platform where you can enjoy the sunrise or sunset or just use it simply for sunbathing purposes on the double 'chill out' bed complete with roof, Moroccan cushions and privacy curtains. Or laze with a drink on the Swing for 2.
The property is finished to the highest standards and features air conditioning on timed meters, at a cost of 1 euro per 1.5 hours, internet access (laptop/tablet required). Dvds, music system, covered terrace, pool table, jacuzzi darts board and and outdoor pool.

The new children's room and shower/wc increases the accommodation so a total of
10-12 can be housed very comfortably but not totally suitable for 6 couples. A mix of adults and children would be much preferred due to number of single beds. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DO WE ALLOW FOR 12 SINGLE MEN OR 12 SINGLE WOMEN TO BOOK - WE CATER FOR FAMILIES WITH NUMBERS UP TO 12.

All linen and towels (inc. beach/pool towels) are provided.
There will be a 750.00 Euros returnable security damage deposit which will be held by VRBO against your credt card and will be fully refundable providing there are no breakages or damage to the property.

A car is an absolute necessity as the house is based at the top of a mountain and in 40 degree heat it is impossible to walk to the supermarket and carry back a week's shopping even though the nearest town is only an 8 minute drive from the house.

We have been advertising and welcoming guests to our house since August 2009. Do visit the Video for an idea of the stunning views:

The lodge is an absolute gem. Difficult to find but when you do it will blow your mind. You are in the campo so expect some of the campo to come and meet you. This was more than our expectations were and would book again if we need to. The facilities are spot on for a family. When the host say a car is essential, they mean a car is Essential although once ensconced in, there is enough to do for whatever length of stay you have. At night from the viewing deck, you look over the entire town of Alhaurin el Grande, and look up to see a full network of stars and watch shooting stars. Just brilliant. We went as a family including 8 and 10 year olds but also 15 and 19 years old and were not bored for one minute. Brilliant! The only negative is that not all of the bedrooms have fully functioning air con and that would have been a real plus. However it did not spoil our break. Do not think twice about booking. You will not be disappointed.

We’ve just returned from an amazing stay at this villa. The pictures do not do it justice. From the very beginning everything to do with the villa was great. The villa hosts, Annie and Rick, were great. Brilliant communication including meeting us to take us directly to the villa. The villa itself is fantastic; so much to do and very well equipped….there was something for everyone! Was great being able to spend our days by the pool then bbq and play pool and darts outside in the evening! The views from the villa were spectacular…enjoyed catching the morning sunrise from the terrace. Thank you Annie and Rick….we’ll defo be back x

Really relaxing - brilliant amenities and outstanding views! Watching the sunrise from the veranda was such a wonderful experience. Lots to entertain the children- swimming pool, darts and a pool table to name a few. Annie and Rick were so helpful- there to answer any of our queries and to help in any way they could. The drive up the mountain is a bit daunting at first but once you’re used to it - it’s easy. I would definitely stay there again!

We have just returned from an amazing week at the villa. The villa and grounds are beautiful (the photos don’t do it justice) and it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The pool was a good size and kept the children entertained for hours and we loved chilling out in the covered veranda area in the evenings. The drive up to the villa is very steep, however this was not a problem once we had got used to this and it did mean that there were incredible views from the terrace at the top. Rick and Annie were great hosts - they were really helpful and answered all of our questions. Overall a great week in a beautiful place!

A lovely week in a fun, clean and quirky cabin in the mountains. Lots of games and things to do for the kids (and adults) and a very refreshing pool. Everything was well equipped and the views were lovely. Rick and Annie were really helpful throughout. My only criticism, (and this is probably just because we had a freak 42c heatwave) was that one couple’s rooms just had a fan and didn’t have air con and they found it a little hot, but our room was lovely and cold! Location as advertised, it’s at the top of a mountain and you need to drive to get about anywhere, but we just did a few trips to the supermarket and had a wonderful time just bbqing and having pool side drinks. Nice to get away from the manic tourist areas and there’s restaurants about a five min drive that are really pleasant and good Value. A genuinely refreshing property, definitely one of a kind and a memorable trip for everyone :)

We were a family of 10 (7 adults and 3 children) on holiday at this amazing place for 15 days - there was plenty of room for all of us. The place has postcard views in all directions. The house has entertainment at all times of the day (and night). At the same time, there is a fantastic viewing platform / terrace where you can relax with a good book or just enjoy the view. Everything just worked perfectly from start to finish - we experienced absolutely no problems. Rick - the host - was very helpful with recommendations for places to eat, experiences, etc. We have often said to ourselves after a holiday that we must visit this place again - this time we are absolutely sure that it will happen :-) Thanks for a wonderful stay, Engelbreth family

We just returned from a great stay at the villa. We were a group of 8 ranging from age 11 to 77. We all loved the villa and there was plenty to keep everyone entertained from the swimming pool, hot tub and games area. Rick and Annie were perfect hosts and were always happy to help with local information and restaurant recommendations. We hope to visit again in the future.
