Description: |
La Joya (The Jewel) - romantically appointed house with sunny terrace for summer & wood-burning stove for winter - perfect for 2 people (but can accomodate 4 with sofa bed). La Joya is located in the spectacularly situated village of Albunuelas overlooking the Rio Santo gorge. It is designed with many thoughtful details including a beautifully restored beamed ceiling in the bedroom.
The sunny roof terrace has views south, over the Rio Santo gorge and West to the Sierra de Albunuelas and for more outside space - there is use of our beautiful garden with palm tree, oranges, lemons, olives, pomegranites, figs and many aromatic herbs. Visitors can help themselves to fruit in season or enjoy the garden for picnics, BBQs or splashing about in the paddling pool.
The house has many lovingly restored features such as the wood and rush ceiling in the bedroom and the old iron balcony covered with brilliantly coloured pots of geraniums - which was a feature from the original building. There are also many romantic extras such as low lighting in the tower staircase, concealed lights within Moorish Arches and the tiny blue star skylight high in the bedroom wall.
In addition to the traditional features - there are also many invisible contemporary comforts such as underfloor heating in winter, a good shower with plenty of hot water, a washing machine/tumble dryer tucked away in a cupboard, and a well equipped kitchen with new appliances.

The Village & Outings Further Afield
There are no cars in the old Barrio Bajo of Albunuelas, although donkeys pass the ground floor windows of the house each day on their way to work in the orange and olive groves. Freshly baked bread and fish from the coast can be bought each day from hawkers in the square below the church. There are bars restaurants and village shops within walking distance and the village square has a weekly market on Thursdays.
While the tradtional Spanish way of life is preserved in Albunuelas, it is still only 30 minutes from the historic city of Granada, with the stunning Alhambra Palace (one of the most beautiful buildings in the world) elegant plazas, fountains, wonderful tapas bars, Moorish bath houses and a vibrant souk in the Moroccan quarter.
The Sierra Nevada Ski resort and the Costa Tropical are both also within easy reach.
The Valley
There are several nice swimming pool/restaurants in nearby villages. Guided walks are available from local English residents which start from the village and can take in items of historical interest (Moorish, Roman, Iberian) as well as the flora and fauna of the valley. Ideal for relaxation and perfect for walkers or bird watchers. The epic GR7 walk from Algeciras to Istanbul passes the door and one of the GR7 markers can be seen upon the wall. The lush valley just beyond the house is rich with oranges, almonds, grapes, figs, pomegranates, persimmons, and prickly pears. In the spring the air is perfumed with orange and almond blossom. The higher slopes of the gorge abound with olives and the scent of wild herbs
