This is our second stay in the cabin. Only home and will be re-booking for this year. We take our grandson who just loves everything to do with nature so he loves the animals,birds insects etc.The cabin is just perfect tranquil,surrounded by mango trees, close to the coast and supermarkets, perfectly clean with everything you need for a great stay, plus a great pool. The scenery is stunning and great for walking.The host Lena is so helpful explains everything you need to know to do with the cabin and surrounding area. From here you can do daytrips to the coast,Gibraltar, Nerja and a short drive to Competa which is a beautiful town just to sit have a coffee or the market on a Saturday. We hire a car from the airport and are at the cabin within the hour. Can’t wait to return. Thanks Lena for another great stay. Take care and see you soon x.

Stunning location
Only home from the cabin on the mountain. One of the best holidays we have had, beautiful place to stay relaxing and homely. Lena was fab from directions to meeting up to collect keys and then on to the cabin, which is breathtaking scenery, great wildlife which our grandson loved as well as a beautiful pool. We really loved this holiday we’re hoping it won’t be long till we’re back. Thanks Lena 😊

Dangerous Road
The property was located on a several mile one lane terrible road with dangerous high cliffs that was impossible to drive at night. We drove it 6 times and decided to just leave the property even though we had paid for 34 days.

Stunningly beautiful cottage surrounded by nature!
We were enchanted by Lena’s cottage! The remote aspect totally appealed as we search for holidays that provide peace and quiet with the quality of nature. Our two little ones of 5 and 3 had such fun walking in the hills and attempting to swim in the pool! It was a fabulous base for discovering Andalucía. In particular, we enjoyed the treetop adventure park in Villanueva de Trabuco, the beach at Burriana and returning to Lena’s gorgeous hillside hideaway in the evening. Lena herself is very endearing - she felt like a friend after only a 30 minute chat! She was very hospitable with everything and we cherish our holiday memories.

A perfect place to relax.
We spent two wonderful weeks in this little piece of paradise.The house is well equipped, comfortable and has a unique charm.The views all around are stunning. The pool temperature was perfect. We loved everything about the property. Lena, the owner, is friendly and helpful and was on hand if we needed anything. She met us at the coast and led the way up to the house which was very welcome as we arrived in the evening. It is easy enough to find once you've been shown. We would love to return sometime in the future.

A peaceful haven
If you want lots of activities and bustling nightlife this is not the place for you. However, if like us you prefer to see the other side of Spain and enjoy walking in stunning countryside then this is a perfect base. The house is very unique and a bit quirky but has all the essentials you need. The pool is ideal for cooling down and the views along the valley from the balcony are amazing. We even spotted eagles soaring above. Owners are very helpful and easy to get in touch with at all times. The roads are quite challenging but certainly "doable" if you are not in a rush Weather was fantastic and we had a wonderful holiday here. Definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys nature and a peaceful life. .

A beautiful spot
The location has many benefits: it has the most astounding views; privacy and solitude; the joy of a truly dark sky full of stars. A great place to simply chill and relax, we loved it for that. The house itself has everything you need and the plunge pool is a fantastic resource for hot days. I lost count of the hours I spent simply drinking in the views, or floating in the pool, eyes closed, enjoying the sounds of nature. The location did have one drawback for us and that was the drive up to and down from it to the main roads. Plenty of people will find it thrilling but we found it an ordeal. We would suggest that visitors invest in a 4x4 to ease the drive, although plenty of people obviously manage without. Our host Lena has no issues with driving her saloon car up to the house for example. We’d also suggest people ensure they do the drive the first time in daylight. Lena was lovely and very helpful, leading us up to the property and showing us around, giving information about the area etc, she couldn’t have been nicer. All in all a great place to stay, if a little difficult to get to.

Just all a bit tired and run down. If you are not very tall you might not be able to see the sea as the trees and bushes need trimming back.

Absolutely loved our stay in the wonderful cabin, determined to come back soon!
Lena was so helpful and friendly showing us to the cabin, and rightly told us to buy in supplies as it's remote location puts it away from shops - just what we wanted. The views are stunning and we often caught a glimpse of Morocco in the foreground of beautiful sunsets. The house is beautiful and built by themselves which made it extra special. We got well acquainted with the neighbours dog who was so friendly and will miss her too! The property is remote, but we manage just fine even without a car, and got very fit walking to Competa or down to the beach! We can't recommend this enough, having walked away with lovely sun tans in the midst of February. Will miss picking orange and lemons to make our home made lemonade and sangria! So sad to leave the cabin, but we'll be back soon!

Peaceful, welcoming, well equiped and beautiful wooden house
We stayed in the house in the last week in May and were very lucky with the beautiful weather. The house is a peaceful, well equiped wooden house in a stunning landscape. The deck outside is wonderful for eating on, for reading and for watching the locals as they go about their work in the fields. We spent nearly the whole week in the house only going out twice for shopping - the place was so relaxing. We particularly loved the garden, the deck, the reading room and the plunge pool. The views from the house are of the sea, the local valley and the high mountains and are stunning. Lena was a welcoming and generous host who brought us to the house and provided basic food as we arrived on a Sunday with no shops open. She filled us in on the history of the house, what to do in the area and made us feel we had really arrived after only 10 minutes chatting. This was a lovely house and we came away relaxed after just a week.

Séjour Eté 2019
Nous avons passé 10 jours très agréable cet été (Juillet 2019) dans le chalet de Lena et nous avons apprécié notre séjour. Le chalet est correct et spacieux, situé dans la montagne au calme, la piscine est suffisamment grande et les équipements sont nombreux. La route pour arriver au chalet fait un peu peur la première fois mais on s'y habitue et à la fin ca n'est plus qu'une formalité. Attention à quand même prévoir de l'eau en bouteille, nous nous sommes fait piéger le premier soir. Enfin Lena est très gentille, et nous a souvent conseillé.
