Like a house borrowed from a good friend

Amie & Simon London
Review Submitted: October 19, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We were looking for a place to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday with friends and happened upon an advert for Casa Rosina. The website was wonderfully helpful and gave a real sense of the house and environs, including a walk through tour. The house absolutely lived up to expectations. It surpasses most holiday rentals in several ways. Firstly it is spacious and the owners have resisted the urge to cram extra bedrooms in every available space. Secondly, it has a well-equipped kitchen. Too many rentals provide a minimum of equipment. Thirdly, it is tremendously useful to have access to David's help and local knowledge. We had various friends arriving in the course of the month and each new arrival was met at the airport by the car hire firm. We have all had the start of too many holidays spoiled queuing for a rental car or locating an out of the way office! There is a lot to do around Casa Rosina, which lies on the cusp of the campo and the coast. We preferred to head off into the hills and explore the real Andalucia. But a few of our number - especially those with kids, liked to head off to the beach for a day. Granada, Cordoba and Seville are within easy reach. All in all it's a great place to spend time. We spent a month. We could have spent two!

Casa Rosina - A lovely place to stay

magsnal Nr Preston, UK
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
This was the first time we stayed at Casa Rosina - it certainly won't be the last and we are already planning next years trip!!

The house was beautifully furnished in what I believe to be a traditional Spanish style - but with all of the essential things us Brits need for a perfect holiday, including hot August sunshine and a nice cool pool!!!. The house is huge and there is plenty of room for upto 6 adults to easily mill around without getting in each others way. The beds are so comfy that our biggest problem was sleeping in until mid morning and wondering where the days were going.

The location was also perfect. It's a good 40-50 mins away from Malaga airport so as you can image just the right distance form the tourist traps of the Costas! Nearby are sufficient small towns with numerous bars and restaurants offering delicious food and tapas. The wine in this region is also excellent. There are couple of small super markets / shops within 10 mins drive where you can top up your provisions but the main large supermarket is only about 20 mins away at a good shopping mall.

Prices in this region of Spain will take you back a few years and in no way can be compared to the coast. For our evening meals we rarely paid more than 35-40 euros for our family of 3 and we didn't skimp on the sangria..... If we made use of the daily Menu del Dia (3 courses inc drinks at about £7-£9 each) then considerably less again.

As others have said, the owners (Anne and David) were truly wonderful hosts and in fact I would go as far to say that meeting them was one of the highlights of the holiday.

A car is essential for exploration of this beautiful part of Spain.

As Arnie said "I'll be back..........".

Review Submitted: July 13, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
This is the second time we have been to Casa Rosa so we knew what to expect. We arrived at the house in the dark and had forgotten just how lovely the veiw from the master bedroom was untill we woke next moring. It really is beautifull.
The house is as you would hope an old Spanish house to be, even down to the sloping floor in the master room. The house is well laid out, clean and well looked after with plenty of room to hide away if you need a little me time.The kitchen is suitably equipt, we were cooking for four adults with no problems at all with plenty of pots, pans and plates. The patio next to the pool looks towards the mountains and in the evening you can sit and watch the sun disappear behind them.
If its peace you want then it's really is the right place you are of the beaten track
Eating out doesn't pose a problem there are some nice restraunts fairly close to the house. There are two really good ones inside a ten minute drive. Just over the valley is a nice little village that we drove through and said we must visit again but didn't. There were some nice places to eat it seemed. Shopping you do have to plan and drive to, the main place a large super market a 25min drive away at least.
David and Annie are lovely hosts and want you to enjoy your stay and try very hard to make sure it happens. They will stock the fridge for your arrival if you ask them. After all having chilled cava is a must.
Cordaba is two hours in land, about an hour and a half to get to Granada. Malaga, forty mins but there are plenty of lovely places to visit in between.
Would I recommend Casa Rosa to a friend?Yes but only if I liked them!

Review Submitted: May 23, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We have enjoyed staying here both in summer and winter. The villa has stunning views from the terrace where we had breakfast every morning - a lovely start to our day. The property is very spacious and has everything you need for a relaxing, stress free holiday.There is even a wood burning stove which kept us cosy on the colder January nights. We ventured to Granada to see the Alhambra and had a great day at Nerja on the beach. We would definately recommend this property to friends.
