Ideal holiday destination for those travellers seeking a slower pace of life for a week or two in authentic Andalucia. MOTRIL is found on the lush coastal plain 70kms South from Granada, midway between Malaga and Almeria . Area known for the market garden growing greenhouses and terraced hillsides, producing all manner of Sub-tropical fruits & vegetables - agriculture is as important as tourism to the local economy. The area probably appeals more to the independent traveller, looking to escape the many developments and 'British ghettos' found nearby on the Costa del Sol! This area still remains Spanish - ideal touring base for Southern Andalucia or for bargain property searches! Excellent Winter climate and interesting holiday destination - possible to ski one day, beach the next! Perfect for couples or working trips - Wi-Fi network.

Further details for this holiday cottage rental in Motril, Spain

GENERAL: Puntalón 0.5kms has a small church, 3 simple bars and a restaurant. However, for everyday needs best to use Motril 3kms a thriving Spanish market town with excellent shops, numerous restaurants/bars, cinema/theatre and some nightlife. Also a large municipal swimming pool complex, plus family aqua-park in Almuñecar. The owner lives in the Cortijo, along with 2 well behaved & friendly dogs. And is happy to advise on activities/excursions in the area, comprehensive house book & selection of maps/guide books available. The Cortijo is both a convenient base for touring Andalucia and a relaxing place to unwind. CAR ESSENTIAL.

CLIMATE: Cortijo Nuevo, can be enjoyed differently through each season. WINTER is short, December-February, often Sunny & warm by day - cooler in the evenings. Snow & frosts never experienced on the coast, temperature rarely drops below 55°f. Most chance of rain in November - possible to eat in the garden, even at Christmas! SPRING late February - May. Temperature starts to warm, feels like British Summer - abundance of wild flowers/blossom on hillsides, evenings are light. SUMMER June - September, hot & dry - NO rain. Although as the Cortijo is at sea level & very near to the coast, benefits from any breeze passing! Adopt Spanish hours, siesta in the afternoon - dine at sunset & stay up late by the pool! AUTUMN October/Nov, rather like British Summer - can still be warm, cooler in the evenings. Excellent time for touring, visiting historical Malaga, Granada, Sevilla, Ronda avoiding the Summer traffic!

Reviews for this holiday cottage rental in Motril, Spain

Motril holiday cottage rental rating 55/5
Week in early April
Louis & Emsky  Cumbria
Review Submitted: April 10, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
My daughter booked this for one of my post 60th birthdays! Really nice spot. Patrick is great, really laid back - no hassle - anyway, a fellow Cumbrian so to be expected. The dogs are good company too.
The house is delightful, wonderful gardens and roof terraces for watching the birdies and picking avocados and a real suntrap! DVDs, CDs, satellite if you wanna know what's on at home.
The locale itself is a great centre for going up into the mountains, which is what we did, or a ten minute drive to the beaches, restaurants and hotspots. I really enjoyed it and would certainly return.
Owner's Response: Ian & Emma,

very pleased that you enjoyed your birthday here at Cortijo Nuevo and that you plan to return. Travellers often do - finding the location a perfect balance 'twixt coast & mountains, not at all isolated (unlike many properties) and as you say only a short drive to EVERYTHING. Just added to the peaceful gardens some more fruits; Chinese date, nectarine & lime.

Again many thanks for taking the trouble to post your excellent review! looking forward to welcoming you back to the Costa Tropical.

Patrick.

Casa Pequeña - big in many ways
Bastiaan  Amsterdam, Holland
Review Submitted: May 4, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Casa Pequeña is situated in a quiet area near a river in which, when low, a motley herd of cows graze. The house is spacious and very tastefully furnished, with a well-equipped kitchen and modern hi-fi and satellite TV, should you miss the outside world.The garden, which has a pool, is large enough almost to get lost in with fruit trees shrubs and a large variety of flowers beautifully and almost inconspicuously tended by the owner, Patrick.There are so many nooks in the garden where you can sit in the sun or shade, take a dip and even enjoy a barbecue in the evening. There is a stunning panoramic view of the sea and the mountains from the roof-terrace which is visited by light refreshing mountain breezes.It is an ideal place for people who enjoy the peace and quiet of the country and yet have easy access to the beach and the mountains. The near-by coastal town of Salobreña with an ancient city-centre provides you with pleasant walks and good restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our trips into the surrounding mountains stopping in lovely old "white villages".

Patrick is a very welcoming host, you wouldn't know he's there, but should you need him he's always easy to find. He knows a great deal about the area and can give you any advice you might want with regard to sight-seeing and practical matters such as the best supermarket in the neighbourhood.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Pequeña and would love to stay there again.

Review Submitted: April 5, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
My wife and I have just spent a blissful month in The Apartment and we cannot recommend it highly enough. If you want to forget the recession and escape the rat race then this is for you.

Where to start? The apartment itself has that lovely lived in feel to it and has everything you could hope for to make you comfortable, the kitchen has everything to enable you to self cater if you feel that way inclined. The bedroom with it's king size bed is spacious as is the bathroom. A newly built roof terrace on top of the apartment allows splendid views of the gorgeous sunsets, 2 extremely comfortable sun loungers make it an ideal place to unwind with a glass of wine after a hectic day out.

Pride of place though has to go to the garden, an eclectic mix of orange, lemon and avocado trees (you can pick any of the aforementioned when in season) are interlarded with shrubs, bushes, colourful ground cover and so many beautiful, highly scented flowers that even I, a non-garden person, could sit for hours with my crossword book and never get bored. Dotted around the garden are sheltered spots where you can sit in splendid isolation if you feel so inclined. At the end of the garden is a pool, ideal for having a swim or splash around, co-located with a communal area which has a barbecue and an honesty fridge which was full even in March.

Patrick is the ideal host, unobtrusive but helpful and friendly if you need to ask his advice.

Nearby Motril is good for supermarket shopping and also for the best tapas we have ever had at Bar Brisa al Mar, be warned do not eat before you go there. We went to Salobrena for most of our meals out. La Bahia, by El Penon was our favourite watering hole, the food first class and the waiters attentive and friendly. It's worth walking up to the end of El Penon at sunset as the dolphins make an appearance almost every evening.

If you want to walk the Alpujarra mountains are a stones throw away and the walking is relatively easy with the villages handily placed to stop off half way through most of the walks to have a light lunch.

Although the beaches in the area are not top class we did like Castell el Ferro, vast stretches of shingle/sand allied with a small fishing section gave it a pleasant feel. Cabria, near Almunecar, is small but the first tavern you find on the beach is friendly and serves excellent tapas.

Delightful place
Ian & Fi  Blackboys, East Sussex UK
Review Submitted: March 14, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
We found this delightful cottage delightful and exceptionally well equipped. every detail taken care of.... when we arrived there was bread, milk, butter and chorizo! a huge bowl of fruit and soft drinks. The delightful garden with a meandering path through lavender and orange and lemon trees to the swimming pool at the bottom of the garden where there is a lovely area for cooking and a well stock fridge of beer, mixer and soft drinks. The roof terrace captures the sun every morning and is a perfect place to enjoy breakfast whilst gazing and the mountains and deciding where one should visit - answer Granada! Only an hours drive away through the stunning mountians of the Sierra Navada, Granada is worth at least 2 day... one is needed for the Alhambra, but the old city itself is also great to wander around but wear comfortble shoes.
Patrick is always on hand to help and I cant speak highly enough of the effort he has put in to make this the perfect place to relax.
We were there 3rd week of February 2009 and had a week of pleasant sunshine and temperatures of 16-24 degrees C.... how lucky we felt!

A quiet retreat
JohnG1  London
Review Submitted: January 5, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
A quiet oasis from the somewhat dusty surrounds. The pool and its barbeque area are a great draw. Patrick's welcome pack was very welcome indeed as we arrived too late for any shopping. Patrick is welcoming without being too intrusive. The dogs can be very welcoming at first (DONT BE AFRAID!) but they soon calm down once they are used to you.
We found the apartment to be comfortable, if a little tired and in need of refurbishment. The wi fi worked well.
As a base for touring, it is very well placed. I would recommend it for a couple or smalll group who do not need noisy night life near by - its a long way to any bars!
Owner's Response: Many thanks John for taking the trouble to submit your good review. Pleased that you enjoyed your stay and found the welcome pack useful, on late arrival. Ben & Jerry (the resident dogs) do sometimes get over-excited on arrivals after Midnight! El Apartamento, was re-styled Winter 2008 and has some great new features; including private roof-top Sundeck and Moroccan inspired entrance lobby. Try to return in 2009 and enjoy the warm sun, tranquility and discover those local bars! - there are 3 in nearby village Puntalon - 2 serving food. Customers mainly Spanish, few tourists find them - but, still just a 10 minute stroll away.
