Casa La Encina

Nice cottage with fabulous swimming pool in quiet location with lovely views over the valley. The swimming pool is a couple of meters from the house. You have to climb 46 steps to reach it. There are 6 lounge beds at the pool and a table with chairs. There are shaded areas during the day. There even is a toilet near the pool. The decor of the house is outdated but you won’t spend too much time much time in the house. The patio at the house is lovely for breakfast. There is a big barbecue at the house. Also great that there is a dish washer and washing machine available. And air conditioning is a live saver in the heat. There is some maintenance that needs to be done in the house (loose door handles, missing flush button, missing handles on cupboards……). Please be aware you are not allowed to flush your toilet paper. Close to camenito del Rey. (Highly recommend doing this, book in advance). One hour from Malaga. Supermarket is 35 mins drive. (Through a winding road up the mountain). Opposite the road is a big goat farm. The charming part is that the goats pass the house every morning and evening. (My family loved watching them pass by). The less charming part are the huge amount of flies, mosquitoes and wasps AND the stable smell if the wind direction is wrong. We saw vultures flying from the swimming pool. Fabulous!
