Vacation Rental Description
Casita de Villa Albanile is a perfect holiday cottage for 2 nestling in the idyllic scenery of unspoilt Andalucia. It is only about 10 minutes from the picturesque "pueblo blanco" of Gaucin but is a world apart from the hustle and bustle of modern everyday life being surrounded as it is by the perfect and peaceful countryside of southern Spain.
Although the cottage is set on the owners land it is completely independant from their own villa and has it's own private patio area looking out across the wondeful panorama. However because of the close proximity of the owners villa it does have the exceptional advantage of a most luxurious and large swimming pool, 15 x 5m. not normally found with such a modest holiday cottage. Whilst in theory this is shared with the owners they always come to an amicable arrangement with their guests so that neither encroach upon the others privacy and enjoyment of the pool.
The cottage consists of a good sized open plan living room with a wood burning stove and kitchen area equipped with an electric hob, microwave oven, fridge and all the necessary pots, pans, crockery, glassware etc. There is a music centre in the living room and patio doors leading out onto the private terrace.
The comfortable double bedroom has ample storage space, patio doors onto the terrace and an en-suite toilet/ shower room with a fully tiled walk in shower.
The location of the cottage makes it ideal for those wishing to have a peaceful and relaxing holiday and is particularly suited to anyone interested in birdwatching or hiking. It is possible to walk for many miles undisturbed by man or machine and the wealth of birdlife along with other wildlife and the spring flowers is staggering.
Gaucin is a typically delightful Andalucian white village which still bears witness to the traditions of rural Spanish life.Here you will find many shops, bars and restaurants and at varying times of the year different local festivals such as the running of the bulls on Easter Sunday and the Feria on the first weekend in August.
