Modern villa, sleeps 6, own pool, garden, in mountains, near spa and Murcia city

Villa del Olivo is situated on the edge of the small Spanish village of Las Casicas, not in an urbanisation. It offers tranquility, friendly neighbours and your own private pool. Sit on the balcony or terrace, sipping wine, and enjoy the spectacular views or sunsets. There is a BBQ by the pool for those al-fresco meals or join the locals for a drink or a meal in the village bar. Nearby is the small town of Fortuna with its famous Spa. The city of Murcia is a short drive away with beautiful architecture and excellent shopping. Several golf courses are within 1 hrs drive, including Villamartin and Altoreal. Drives of 1-11/2 hrs will take you to lovely beaches, resorts such as La Manga or historic towns. This well equipped detached villa allows you to enjoy a stress-free holiday and our local agent lives close by to help you or give advice. The area is very unspoilt and typically Spanish and offers a great variety of walks in the surrounding Sierra de la Pila. A great place to unwind.

Notes:

The clear mountain air and the height (at 300m above sea level) means that it is not as humid during the hot summer months as it is on the coast. We find that this is particularly beneficial to asthma sufferers. We do provide 4 beach towels so that you do not have to bring your own and add to the weight of your luggage. Please let us know if you have a baby coming with you as we can supply a Spanish 'Graco' type travel cot, a high chair and a small buggy. (The buggy is best for short people only!!) You will need your own cot sheets.

Activities such as Golf, Walking and Painting

The villa is within easy reach of several golf courses, the nearest being Altoreal in Molina de Segura. This has the advantage , at the moment, of being quieter than the ones near the coast and local enthusiasts often prefer to play here where it is easier to book. Full details can be found in the villa. There are some beautiful walks, to suit all abilities, from the villa or you can drive further up into the mountains to one of the National Parks. The stunning scenery and the ever-changing light makes the area ideal for artists.

Spa

Banos de Fortuna is a thermal spa about 15 minutes drive from the villa.It has 2 stunning pools which are fed from natural hot water springs. Here you can be pampered with various beauty and health treatments or just book a swim in the pool. The camp site next to the Banos also has the same hot spring water pool and is more child friendly. For a small charge you can spend time there, using their facilities. Full details of both are in the villa. A second Spa is available at Archena, about 30 mins.away.

Ambience

Everybody who has stayed in our villa has said how relaxed they feel after a few days. The village is not a tourist spot, but home to both Spanish and English families, who will be only to glad to help you and our agents live close by if there are any problems. We aim to enable you to have a stess-free holiday and 'wind down' completely. There is a village bar within walking distance. Fortuna, 10 minutes drive away, has a weekly market and several good restaurants.

Other Activities Spa, ideal for walkers, cyclists, naturalists and painters

Summer 2006: Every thing was fabulous - villa clean. The only thing I would really change is the lack of shade around the pool, so perhaps more brolley’s around the pool. We tried the paella from the village bar - very good. A fabulous place for relaxation. Liz W.
(Point taken, will be more sun brolley’s next year, Jane A)

We had a great week at the Villa del Olivo. The villa was spacious and beautifully kept and the pool and gardens were lovely. It was hard to drag the children away from the pool to explore the surrounding countryside and towns but we did and found your recommendations in the folder excellent. The fiesta was a bonus as it was nice to see a real traditional Spanish village fiesta, not to mention the one in Pinoso as well. A. McH.
(The village fiesta is at the beginning of August, Jane A)

Re the agents, Maria and Gerald. 'nice to meet such a warm and friendly couple, the way you made us feel so welcome and almost part of the community was really appreciated. M
