Vacation Rental Description
Set on the outskirts of a peaceful traditional village, overlooking olive groves and with spectacular views of the mountains. This is a large 5 bedroom refurbished village house with private pool and attractive garden. A comfortable family home, it offers the opportunity for a relaxing, self-contained holiday with a wealth of other cultural and recreational possibilities. More photos of the house on the way. The house has been designed as a family home not as a sterile holiday let. So, it is welcoming, has considerable character and charm and has been built with love. It is ideal both for 'hanging out' and relaxing or as base for wider exploration of the area and has worked well for large family holidays as well as for disparate groups of friends and couples. Bedrooms are largely on the ground floor and the main communal body of the house is open plan. There are all the facilities that you would expect TV, DVD and CD player, iPod dock, games and also has an impressive library.

Activities
This area is on the edge of 'Driving Over Lemons' territory and though the traditional ways are beginning to die, you'll still get a pretty good feel for the 'real' Spain - daily life, sleepy afternoons, lively evenings, especially at fiesta time. In the village itself, there is a Coviran supermarket, a number of small and idiosyncratic convenience stores, a bakery, two pharmacists and a bar with the finest view (and the finest, coldest beer) in the valley. Listen out, too, for the twice weekly fish and fruit vans.
Although rightly famed for the unmissable Alhambra, Granada is a lively city of considerable historical importance with all the modern facilities you would expect, excellent shopping and some of the finest tapas in Andalucia. Well worth exploring.
