Photos and Description of this Cabo de Gata area holiday villa Romantic self-catering Finca, secluded, all year round rental, largeprivate pool

Your accommodation is in a brand new but traditional Andalusian cortijo (farm house) named EL CAZADOR (The Hunter), set high upon a promontory within the eleven acres of Finca Los Tigres, a stone’s throw away from Hípica Aguamarga’s stables. It is a stunning, spacious and luxurious villa, with an enticing mix of the modern and the traditional. It has a pool of 13x3.5 m and terraces on 3 sides of the house. El Cazador (The Hunter), a 4-bedroom, 2- bathroom whitewashed cortijo, can comfortably accommodate 6 people in its 144m2 . It is an enticing mix of the traditional and the modern, with terra cotta tiles on the floors, slate terraces and underfloor solar/gas heating. Every effort has been made to render the house ecologically friendly, using double glazing and double walls with insulation to keep out the heat in summer and lock it in during the winter. We even placed the windows in accordance with the angle of the sun rays to allow more light in in winter and less in summer.

Further details for this holiday villa rental in Cabo de Gata area, Spain

Extra Information: Surrounding the farmhouse are terraces made of traditional natural stone, leading at the front down to a large, solar heated, infinity swimming pool measuring 12.75m x 3.5m (approximately 42 x 11.5 feet). The pool itself is located on an ancient Moorish terrace created hundreds of years ago for viticulture, and is made of honey-coloured stone, in keeping with the ecological requirements of the Nature Reserve, and invisible from the countryside surrounding it. There are terraced areas by the pool. The view from the pool is an unobstructed 240-degree landscape for all to enjoy. At the rear of the property is a gravel driveway leading up to a large space behind the farmhouse. There are no fences surrounding El Cazador, allowing uninterrupted views all around the property. The stables are only a stones’ throw from the front door, with an immense fenced area for riders to enjoy, a short way down the hill directly in front of the accommodation.

Things you may want to know: There is no telephone line available in El Cazador however mobile phone coverage is very good. Internet via satellite is available for an extra GBP15 per booking. Two baby cots with blankets etc and two high chairs can be provided upon request. The farmhouse is fitted with smoke detectors and has a fire extinguisher. The supply of water, gas and electricity is all included in the cost of your holiday. Please note that all water at the farmhouse comes from a 140 metre deep well and is suitable for all bathing, washing and other such purposes but is not certified ‘potable’. Large containers of mineral water are widely available and inexpensive.

Sailing: Sailing opportunities abound for visitors of all experience, whether just for fun or if you are looking for something more ‘intense’. It is possible to hire out motor boats, catamarans and small pedal boats in Agua Amarga. Yacht Club San Andres is under construction at Carboneras and the Club de Mar Almería yacht club is extremely welcoming to experts and novices alike, with excellent facilities for visiting yachts. The club offers superb dining facilities with views of the harbour and the comings and goings of the ferries linking the city with Morocco. Further afield to the west of Almería lies the Almerimar Yacht Club, a vast complex ready to receive, service and repair any size of visiting vessel Skiing is close: 2 hours away is the Sierra Nevada Olympic Ski resort. Golf is equally accessible: Turre Golf Club is about 30 minutes' drive and several famous golf clubs in Murcia and Almeria are about 2 hours' drive

Other Activities: The Finca is extremely suited to Honeymoon couples due to its privacy.

Walkingon the Costa de Almeria

The Old Gits Bangor, Gwynedd, North Wales
Review Submitted: April 25, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
The finca was beautifylly and generously appointed and very easy to reach from Almeria airport and owners and caretaker very helpful and accommodating. Late spring is a great time to go; not too hot for walking (although windy) and the flowers were beautiful. The coastline/coastal walk is stunning. Good quality maps and guide books are hard to find for this area. We'll certainly return if we can only find another 2 or 3 more spectacular walks. Di et al
