Casa Eladio

Casa Eladio is a traditional village house in Pinos del Valle, a quiet village set among orange and lemon orchards in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. The excellent road network provides access within half an hour to the Alpujarras, the Costa Tropical and the fascinating city of Granada with the beautiful Alhambra palace, built by the last Moorish rulers in Spain. Modernised and fully equipped to a high standard, the house retains original features such as beamed ceilings and wooden shutters and is decorated in a traditional style. The kitchen/dining room leads directly onto a walled patio and private swimming pool. Further outside space is available on a first floor balcony and a large roof terrace, both offering pretty views across the village to the mountains beyond. The comfortable sitting room is equipped with a wood burning stove for winter use.

About the location

The village of Pinos del Valle is situated amongst orange, lemon, olive and almond trees overlooking Lake Beznar at the eastern end of the Lecrín Valley, itself the western extension of the Alpujarra. At an altitude of 705m, it is cooler than the coast in summer but sheltered in winter. It provides an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. The city of Granada (25 min) is home to the Moorish Alhambra palace and Seville and Córdoba can be reached in around two and a half hours. The Mediterranean coast (25 min) provides both lively resorts and quiet coves. The Sierra Nevada, snow-capped for much of the year, surround the village and can be reached easily via the spa town of Lanjarón (15 min). Órgiva (30 min) is the centre for the Alpujarra valley with its famous white villages and opportunities for walking, botany and outdoor pursuits. The mountains are also the home of Europe's most southerly ski resort, Sol y Nieve (45 min).
