The House, which was completed in 2004, stands at the very top of the development and all the rooms and terraces have panoramic views of the bay of La Herradura, the town itself, with its long beach, and the mountains behind. Immediately behind the house is the access road, to just a few more houses, which borders National Parkland, and offers plenty of parking with very little passing traffic. The accommodation comprises 3/4 bedrooms—one ensuite, 2 bathrooms, separate toilet, living/dining room, kitchen, garage, three terraces and a fabulous Tower room. All rooms enjoy the benefit of air conditioning/heating. Entry is via the first floor, with a garage, two bedrooms, one with its own terrace - and a bathroom. Downstairs is the main living area, comprising the lounge/diner, kitchen, utility room, master bedroom (ensuite), separate toilet and 30 foot by 18 foot (max) terrace with covered area.
The Tower room, situated on the top floor, has its own 17 foot terrace; this room has been furnished to provide an extra living area or, alternatively, with its sofa bed it can be used as a fourth bedroom. There is a shared swimming pool and also paddle tennis courts. Just 50 minutes drive from Malaga and 75 minutes from Granada lying between Nerja and Almuñecar is the small town of La Herradura, the horseshoe, named after the shape of the beautiful bay it overlooks, and on the Cerro Gordo headland at the side of this bay is the development of Cármenes del Mar.
Everything that attracts us to the Mediterranean is here, the climate with its average 320 days of sunshine each year; the culture and the history, but this part of Spain is still relatively free of the large crowds of tourists.
Winter offers much from this spot; you can enjoy the winter sun when things are dull, cold and grey at home; or within an hour or so drive are the city of Granada and also the Sierra Nevada where you can enjoy the winter sport of skiing.
