MOUNTAIN VILLA CLOSE TO BEACHES:
3 BEDROOM - PRIVATE POOL
AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING
This beautiful unique villa sits majestically in the mountains of the Sierra mountain range with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
Torre Cascada is built in the Moorish style unique to this area. With all modern comforts and amenities its appearance is that of a grand medieval Moorish villa with tower.
Large, intricately carved arched windows allow access to three separate terraces all of which have magnificent uninterrupted views of the surrounding Sierra Cabrera Mountains and valley’s.
The imposing double gates bounded on one side by a natural rock outcrop lead to the large split-level front terrace. Half of this is covered with a cane screen to afford shelter from the sun whilst eating alfresco or taking a drink whilst admiring the view into the valley. This terrace also overlooks the large shaped private pool with powerful Whirlpool and affords access to the main lounge/dinning area and entrance door. Steps lead down to the pool along side the natural rocks.
The main front olive wood door leads to an entrance area, off of which are two bedrooms and a bathroom. All floors are pink or white marble.
The furniture is in traditional Spanish style. The house has been left deliberately uncluttered to reveal the unique architectural splendour.
Bedroom One has two single beds and a built in wardrobe. Large shuttered doors in this bedroom lead directly back onto the front terrace. Bedroom two has a double bed and built in wardrobe. Shuttered windows open to an uninterrupted view of the adjacent mountain olive groves and goatherds.
The bathroom is in blue mosaic tiles with bath/shower, toilet and washbasin.
Leading from the entrance area through an archway down marble steps is the main lounge/dinning area. This well lit room has three double sliding window doors each surrounded by carved archways supported on turned columns. One window leads to the front terrace. A second gives access to the adjacent front balcony. The third leads to the equally large rear terrace, which is also covered with, cane sun shading.

GUEST COMMENTS
Torre de la Cascada is the best villa we have stayed at,
the pictures dont do it justice and the views are amazing.
It was a peaceful and calm place to stay where a lot of thought had clearly been given to making our holiday special. The pool and whirlpool were great and the beaches sandy and clean.
We will be back! Mrs Day 2008
Many thanks for all your fast replies, and once again we really enjoyed our stay in your brilliant villa.
For sure, I will certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to discover this nice region.
