THE HOUSE

Casa De Los Sueños “ House of Dreams” is a spacious, clean and comfortable traditionally styled 3 bed roomed rural residence with a large private pool and pretty gardens. Set on top of a hill with stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, valleys, olive groves, and vineyards. Inside the villa you will find an airy open plan living and separate dining room eqipped with a log burning stove for cooler months and fan´s for the height of summer. The villa has a large veranda which is great for eating al fresco meals shaded from the glare of the sun and a comfortable sitting area for relaxing with a glass of wine to wind down your evening.Outside you will also find a huge BBQ and another seating/eating area. With the 3 comfortable bedrooms, a well equipped kitchen, and clean newly reformed bathroom the house has really got all you would need for an enjoyable and relaxing stay. To the front of the villa is an area for parking and from there you access the pool area down a flight of steps( this is fenced for the safety of young children)
The pool and gardens are in full sun all day long and well into the evening and should you fancy a midnight dip, no problem as there are lights to illuminate the pool.
My guests tell me often that they love the peace and quiet here and the laid back atmosphere, and how easy they find it to unwind and how quickly they start to relax once settled in.
You could say it´s a home- from- home and you are assured of a warm welcome what ever time of year you visit.


THE AREA AROUND OUR HOLIDAY VILLA

Casa De Los Sueños is situated in an area of stunningly natural beauty and is very tranquil. The hills and mountains surrounding the villa are always green thanks to the native pine´s and other evergreen foliage .
Wildlife abounds but you have to be sharp eyed to spot it, however the local population of red squirrels, native birds and even Imperial eagles are more easily seen. This is an artists/Nature lovers paradise. Great for those into walking and fell running too.
For those into outdoor pursuits there is plenty to choose from including horse riding, pleasure boat trips, caving and climbing,paintball, golfing and fishing all close by,and if you are into motor bikes or racing cars there are plenty of events throughout the year at the Ricardo Torno circuit just down the road in Cheste. If you are looking for complete relaxation the owner is a trained massues so for a small charge you can have an India head massage and really say good bye to any stresses and strains. If you just want to lie back and do nothing, the pool area is a sun trap so just spend your days working on your tan, taking a dip when needed to cool off.
Should you crave a little excitement there are many places of interest and culture, theme parks and adventure all in the province, and plenty to see and do in the local area with the city of Valencia and all it has to offer less than an hours drive away. I´m frequently told by my guests that this is the perfect place to come home to at the end of a busy day out.
Whatever the time of year you are more or less guaranteed sunshine, and for those who prefer cooler temperatures spring, Autumn and even winter may be just the time for you to visit.

Annie thank you for everything, you are a great hostess! what a wonderful relaxing place you have, really something to be proud of, we spent most days relaxing by the pool, enjoying the scenery it was just as we expected and more!
Yvonne....Amsterdam

Thanks for everything Annie, we very much enjoyed our stay here and hope to be back in the not-too-distant future. It´s a lovely spot in a wonderful region, you´ve been so kind and we´ll miss you.

AROUND AND ABOUT

Valencia city..... Has it all including a formula 1 circuit, ancient and futuristically modern architecture, science, arts, history and culture, a zoo and fantastic sea-life center,the Ricardo Torno racing circuit which hosts the final of the Moto Gp races amongst lots of other events for car and bike enthusiasts. Fiestas aplenty including the celebrations for FALLAS A week long event in March ( 12th to 19th) when huge works of art are erected in the streets of the city and burned to the ground on the final night of the festival. Other Fiesta´s include Easter, Three kings- which is Spanish Christmas and held on the 6th of January, and the Moors and Christians celebrations held in the autumn. Even without fiestas Valencia is a truly spectacular city and offers something for everyone what ever the time of year you visit.

El Bosque and El saler for golf......premier courses just a short drive down the auto via and on the Valencia coast

Macastre..... the nearest village to the villa, typically Spanish and very pretty, plus the locals are wonderful. plenty of places to buy a good and cheap meal,or you could push the boat out and visit la posadica an intimate little restaurant where you are assured of a first class meal.Fiesta´s here are too numerous to mention the main fiestas notably are for Fallas week(march in the City, April here) and August when the pueblo really kicks into the holiday season with lots of live music, fancy dress, paella cooking competitions, festivals de torros,visiting circus, and competitions and fun and games for the kids, fireworks and laughter. It´s true to say , and many of my visitors from the UK will back me up on this, that village life is reminiscent of how England used to be, the villager´s take a pride in their community spirit, traditions and festivals keeping them alive and enjoyed in today´s hustle bustle world.

Alborache..Right next to Macastre and the nearest place for supermarket shopping. Fantastic Sunday market too.

Buñol.. Nearest town and famous worldwide for La Tomatina or tomato throwing contest. I have had visitors from as far away as Australia for this event which is always held on the last Wednesday of August. Apart from tomatina you will find the town a busy little place with cobbled back streets to explore as you make your way to the castle and plenty of cheap bars for food and drink to sustain you.

Chiva..another bustly little town and famous for being the birth place of Spains number one bullfighter Enrique Ponce. Bull running through the town in August.

Cheste and the Ricardo Torno racing circuit..Plenty of things going on here throughout the year for speed freaks as the circuito hosts amongst other things the final for the Moto GP, formula 1 testing, sports car rallies and the like. The villa is ideally placed for visitors wishing to visit the Moto Gp final or other events as it´s approx a 25 minute easy drive from here.

L´Albufera.. rice growing region and an important wildlife reserve and stop off point for migrating birds. You can take a boat trip on the lake and visit a traditional Albufera house.

Bonaire.. Shop till you drop at this fabulous complex, you can spend the entire day here and as well as the shopping enjoy a really good meal at a really good price in the massive food court, factory outlets too.

Embalse de Forrata and Cortes de Pallas.. 2 local lakes of spectacular beauty. One just down the road, you can see this from the house when the water level is high, and the other a 30 minute drive from here, you can take a pleasure cruise and then stop off in the village for lunch.

Local beaches are numerous as this is a coastal city but my favourites are Sagunto and Cullera. Another lovely coastal resort to visit is Peñiscola, it´s quite a drive but I think worth it. There are also various tourist attractions, water parks,and plenty to suit all tastes in the region.

Notes
The villa is cleaned thoroughly before you arrive and bedding and towels changed weekly,cleaning on your departure is free. If you wish the villa to be cleaned for you during your stay this can be arranged but of course a charge is made,€30 per clean.

25% deposit secures your holiday, more info on this when making an enquiry.
€70 will be payable on your arrival. This is a damages deposit and will be returned to you on your departure unless there has been any damage caused to the villa or it´s contents.

Please note that there are quite a number of steps leading down to the pool,there is a sturdy handrail but the steps may cause a problem to anyone with mobility issues. The TRACK leading from the main road to the villa is a RURAL by-way and surfaced only with chippings this being a country villa, however it is only about 200 mts long. I would advise you hire a car which is not too low to the ground.

The owner lives on site on a piece of land seperated from the villa by a screened fence. There may also be neighbours visiting their villa next door. Please be assured we will not disturb your enjoyment of the villa and pool. The owner is there to service the pool and gardens and offer help if needed . Her main wish is that you make the villa your own during your stay and have an enjoyable and relaxing holiday.

An authentic taste of Spain

We have stayed in this property on two occasions and found it to be a restful and rejuvenating holiday. The scenery is lovely, and sitting by the pool a delight. The owner is welcoming and helpful and the property itself clean and spacious. We will definitely visit again.

Haven on Earth

We have been to Anne's place, as we refer to it, twice now and the second visit was as breathtaking as the first. We were surrounded by so much natural beauty including Anne's garden which she has nurtured for many years. We basked in the sun and swam in the pool daily. When the sun went down we stared in to the clear night at the stars, sipping wine and eating fresh groceries from the local shops in Macastre and the supermarket in Bunol. Both locations are extremely close (by car) to the Villa. The laughter from the kids, 5 and 11, as they splashed about in the wonderfully warm pool was infectious. They were content and in the evenings exhausted. No matter what day trips we planned - Valencia (plenty of shops), Requena (visiting on a market day is a must / recommend the silk museum), Alicante (approx 2hr drive) or the water park, Aquapolis - they were happiest back at the Villa. On arrival we were presented with a wonderful meal made by Anne and before leaving we asked her to cook a BBQ for us which was equally delicious. The Villa and its location had a wonderful calming effect on all of us. We talk about our holiday often. The Villa is beautiful and has all you need for your family. The surrounding area is peaceful. For us it truly is a Haven on Earth.

So Relaxing...

Only a short drive from the beautiful city of Valencia and you are in the wonderful mountains and olive groves. The villa is spacious, very comfortable and spotlessly clean, everything you need is to hand. Great outdoor eating areas with lots of shade. The views are stunning and the pretty garden around the pool is peaceful with just the birds singing completely relaxing!! The pool is large and kept beautifully clean. Anne, your host, looks after you really well and cooks fabulous meals - so - all in all a fabulous place to holiday, and cant wait to go again.
