CASA MANOLO: sleeps 2/4 + baby in two bedrooms, 5 minutes drive from the centre of Órgiva, 20 minutes walk

Casa Manolo is a delightful cottage situated  less than a mile from the centre of Órgiva town amidst olive and orange groves, with panoramic views of the mountains.  The cottage is entirely surrounded by orchards, and you will not see nor hear any neighbours, and will be able to sunbathe by the pool in total privacy. 

Along a picturesque country lane, bordered by eucaliptus trees, pines trees and cascades of colourful exotic flowers, with distant views of the snowy peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountains and the dramatic rocks of the Lujar and Contraviesa along the way, you can drive right up to the house, where parking is easy.

The Spanish owner has restored the cottage in simple rustic style, with wooden beams and with plain terracota floors, and furnished it with comfortable yet stylish furniture, some pieces antique. 

There are two double bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with two twin beds.
In the comfortable and cosy living room, there is a seating area around the fireplace with a sofa bed and some armchairs as well as a dining table.  There is a TV, Radio, a CD recorder and cassettes.

The bathroom has a shower and a WC.

In the fully fitted, modern kitchen, there is a also a microwave and a washing machine.
All the kitchen utensils are provided.  A baby chair and cot can also be provided on request.

For eating al fresco, there is another table on the outdoor terrace, shaded by a canopy of vineand fragrant flowers.  Near the pool, there is a built-in barbecue (but please use charcoal only, never wood, and put the fire out with a bucket of water after use, for safety).  By the pool (6m z 4m) there are some sun beds.

All the bed linen and towels are provided, but beach towels are not provided.
