Absolutely fabulous!

The villa is rustic and in a beautiful setting. The grounds are so tranquil and you can relax in the pool and admire the stunning views. My husband and I have fairly stressful jobs and this was the perfect setting to chill and relax. There are plenty of local villages to explore and the nearest coastal town is 40 minutes away. Directions to the villa are accurate and the roads leading to it are easily accessible, which isn’t always the case when staying in rustic properties. The villa is well equipped and you could quite easily not venture out for a few days. A special thank you to Angela who was the contact whilst we were there, we had an issue with the boiler but this matter was very quickly resolved and correspondence was quick and accurate. We have been visiting the Axarquia region for many years, but this villa is probably the best we have stayed in and we can’t find any negatives or faults, we can’t wait to stay here again in the near future. Many thanks Lisa

Idyllic and relaxing stay in Andalusia

We stayed in Cottage 1 for one week. The house is nice and cozy and sufficiently spacious for four people. The garden and pool area are wonderful with many plants and a perfect view to the turquoise lake. It is even more beautiful than on the pictures. Would recommend the place 100%.

Magnifique séjour

Nous avons séjourné 10 jours dans ce très joli cottage situé sur les hauteurs de Periana. Un véritable havre de paix au milieu des oliviers, citronniers et amandiers. Le jardin en escalier est magnifiquement arboré et offre de très belles perspectives sur le lac. L'accès à la propriété est très facile et le cottage, à la décoration soignée, est très bien équipé. La communication avec Lisa, la propriétaire, et Angela, le contact sur place, a été excellente. Nous ne pouvons que recommander ce merveilleux endroit . A découvrir absolument ! Stéphanie et Yann

A little piece of paradise!

We arrived in the dark at nearly midnight, not knowing what to expect when we arrived having only the pictures to set our expectations. There was a welcome basket with everything we needed to sort us our after a long afternoon travelling and just enough lights to have a peek around the property. It wasn't however, until the morning we realised just how incredible this villa and its location was. The views are absolutely spectacular, the villa itself has endless pockets where you can sit an relax, enjoy some food and take it all in - whether that's on the decking, by the pool, amongst the trees or on the patio. The villa itself has a lovely homely feel and was easy to settle into, there's ample storage space, plenty of room to move and a safe. Beyond the villa, Periana is a lovely sleepy village where you can meander the streets, the village in the opposite direction had a great butchers/bakers so stocking up was easy. Further East Frigiliana is a beautiful hillside village that's well worth an afternoon and a couple of wines. Granada was perfect for an evening meal and a starlit trip up to the Alhambra and its grounds. Seville offered stunning architecture and a memorable daytrip to one of the hottest (in more ways than one) cities in Europe. The walk from Periana along the old rail route was filled with stunning views up to the mountains and down to the lake and beyond. Finally kayaking on the lake was well worth the experience as it gives a totally different perspective of the area (plus a good workout). All in all it was a wonderful adventure in a beautiful pocket of Andalucia, the villa offered a perfect base for us to adventure out and about while still maintaining a space where we could escape it all and just enjoy our own company. The views are stunning, the setting is perfect and we wouldn't change a thing about our stay - especially getting engaged, that was pretty awesome. If you're thinking about booking, stop, just book it, you won't regret it.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Kuhwald

Hi we have 4 boys and have had the cottages for 20 years. We have spent many happy holidays here since the boys were little. It is ideal for toddlers and children as they have so much outside space and freedom to run around. We now live in England but previously lived in Spain as we really enjoy the relaxed outdoor lifestyle.

Why they chose this property

We love the area of Periana/Lake Vinuela as the scenery is stunning, it is very peaceful and you get a taste of real Spain. It is away from the crowds of the coast but only half an hour to the beach, so easily accessible whenever you wish to go. You can easily explore both the Costa del Sol or the many stunning scenic drives in the mountains and villages of Andalucia. We enjoy the outside lifestyle and exploring many tapas bars in the hillside villages! as well as driving to the coast and relaxing on the beach. You can travel easily to the cities of Granada, Malaga or Cordoba experiencing the Andalucian lifestyle, fantastic architecture and special treats such as the Moorish baths. In winter we love to travel to the Sierra Nevada to ski (2 hrs away) and then head back for some sun!

What makes this property unique

The casitas are just a few minutes drive into the village of Periana and a few local restaurants and bars, so you can chill by the pool and then easily nip out for something to eat and drink. Children have a ball here, running around, swimming, climbing trees and generally playing outside. The pools are fenced (cottage 2) or gated (cottage 1) as safety by the pool is always an issue to us having little ones ourselves. The cottages also have a sandpit, swing and hammock to keep the children amused, Casita 2 has a slide and playhouse too.
