quiet, traditional house in Teguise
Review Submitted: March 15, 2009
Date of Stay: February 2009
The house is located quiet with view on the center of Teguise. Teguise is central on Lanzarote and a good place to explore the island in every direction. The house is beautifully furnished. The kitchen is really fully equipped, and the kitchenware was of higher quality than in most other places we stayed in. The beds are really large (1,60m and 1,50m) and have coverlets like they are used in Germany.
The house is not standalone but semi detached. There is a cactus garden in front of the house but only the terrace and the patio can be used to sit in. The fireplace is not in use. Unfortunately, the weather was wet and chilly at our stay (begin of March). For this type of weather the house is not the best choice. There has been no internet access. In one of the sleeping rooms there are two roof windows without possibility to cover them so we woke up at the first light of the day. The other sleeping room is only accessible crossing the patio.
Owner's Response: Thanks to the couple from Hamburg. All comments are welcome as we try to make the property as good as we can and improve it all the time.
Thankyou.We agree that the house is beautifully furnished . We have spent a lot of money on the furnishings and fittings.trying to give it a 5-star finish.
We have now fitted blinds on the 2 skylight windows to enable people to " sleep-in ".
The cactus garden has 26 varieties of cactus and we have fitted a seating area so that people can enjoy the peace and tranquility of the garden.ideal for reading and watching the world go by.
The fireplace is not used due to the smoke and dust it would emit making dirty all the fixtures and fittings..it is decorative only. We do supply 3 large electric heaters which are more than adequate to heat the house.
Internet access.as mentioned in the information is in an internet cafe in the village. 7 minutes walk from the house, next to the Town Hall. The charges are very reasonable.50 cents for 15 minutes- The cafe.bar is called " La Tahona " and offers good traditonal tapas and local cuisine. fresh sea.food etc.
The other sleeping room .there are 3 bedrooms .not 2 .......is a self-contained bedroom with en-suite bathroom.it has an original 4-poster bed ( see photos ).access is via the swimming-pool patio.10 seconds from the kitchen.
We hope that the Hamburg couple enjoyed their holiday on beautiful Lanzarote. The truth is that the island is not designed for rain and is invariably sunny and warm in the winter months. Thankyou. Nigel and Luisa. The Owners. Country House Lanzarote.
