Mecina Fondales: Häuser

We spent three weeks as a family at this wonderful place and were really sad when we had to leave. First the location is fantastic because from Orgiva you can easily visit the picturesque Alpurrajas and white villages, the Sierra Nevada, Granada and and the Costa Tropical! The house has a beautiful garden with a private pool for the guests which was big fun for our five-year-old son and just a nice place for sunny afternoons.The house itself was very clean and the big garden was well maintained. You have a gorgeous view over the mountains from the porch and garden and live close to nature without any noise from streets or town. Moreover, Sheila and Jack were the most friendly hosts we have ever met. They gave us many tips about sights, places and events and were really helpful and caring. We will come back!

As soon as we arrived we felt higly comfortable immediately. We got welcomed very nice by Antonio's lovely parents. Antonio himself gave us great tips and recommendations for places to visit and was always ready to help if we needed something. All in all it was one of the best holidays we had because of the welcomming family, the wonderful residence and the gorgeous environment. We really hope to come a second time!

Wunderschönes Cortjo in traumhafter Umgebung! Der Garten ist riesig. Tolle Pflanzen und auch Obst und Gemüse durften wir aus dem Garten essen. Das Cortjo ist gut ausgestattet alles was man braucht. Mo und Lucy sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Gegend ist toll sehr ländlich, bis zum Strand braucht man zwar durch die Serpentinen etwas länger, andererseits kann man es in dem tollen Garten mit dem großen Pool auch sehr gut aushalten und dabei einen tollen Blick genießen. Meine Töchter waren insbesondere auch von einem Maultier begeistert das quer übers Gelände spazieren geht. Wir würden das nochmal buchen, da wir eine tolle Woche hatten.

We had a great stay at the Walnut Cortijo. Luci gave us a warm welcome and she really wanted to make us feel good. We invited her to sangria and had a wonderful evening on her terrace. Every morning there was breakfast outside (with fresh eggs from the chicken coop) on the terrace with a fantastic view. Relaxation offered the hammock on the terrace and by the pool. Lingering by the pool was great, even with nice shade next to the strawberries;) The buzzing of the animals, the cowbells on the other side of the mountain, the chirping of the birds is wonderful - here you really get down. Without TV, WLAN and with mediocre cell phone reception anyway, which we used wonderfully to play cards. With grill and stove we could wonderful self supply, you have to rinse yourself here -the grill and the back oven were dirty - but that was not a big problem for us. Trevelez is only 4km away, for jamon lovers a true mecca 😊. There was a small supermarket for the most necessary and delicious fresh bread and also in the place a small butcher for some grilled meat. About 20 minutes away there is a well-stocked supermarket with a fairly well-stocked fresh counter for cold cuts, cheese and meat. Who wants to have more choice here should go shopping in or clearly before Orgiva. It did not bother us. We were there with our 10 month old daughter. It worked quite well, but the wooden terrace was not necessarily suitable for crawling. Here we would rather run with children who can go again. The Cortijo was probably built by the Moors, which of course makes it even more exciting if you combine this holiday with a visit to Granada and the Alhambra, which you should definitely have seen. The pictures are a bit misleading, which Cortijo which is but you can ask in advance in the open and fast communication with mo and Lucy. The vita of mo and Lucy reads very interesting and sounds even more interesting in a personal conversation. We hope to meet mo next time. You can feel that the restoration of the land and the cortijos has gone a long way, which makes this place very special. Highly recommended for all those who are looking for something original and would like to escape from the modern and fast world. The last time we were not here - we will come back.
