Casa Azahar - a restored, rustic and romantic three storey townhouse in a small, sleepy village with pool, terraces, interior patio, wifi, outdoor bathing and two bedrooms with en suite bath and shower. Lots of quirky and Moroccan touches and plenty of space to relax and enjoy the wonderful Lecrin Valley, half an hour south of Granada and forty minutes from the coast.,
The space
This is our holiday home. The moment we saw it we fell in love with it and we hope you will too. The house was restored about 25 years ago and is a comfortable place to stay with lots of typical Moroccan touches like the interior patio to cool you down; low, laid back lounging in the living room and shuttered windows with Juliet balconies. There is plenty of outside space for all weathers - sunny spots and shady places; views across an orange grove to a small stream and the terraced valley opposite; the pool, an outdoor bath and shower on the roof terrace and all of it very private.
Guest access
Guests can access all parts of the properties. The pool is private and not shared with any others.
Other things to note
I have listed this property as suitable for children over two simply because Airbnb does not give the facility to say what I would like, which is that I believe the house is only really suitable for children who can swim - probably 7 and over. This is because the pool - a lovely six foot deep one to cool off in - has been squeezed in to the space available and the chances of falling in by accident are therefore higher as there is not much space around it.
We generally only let the house in the Spring/Summer/Autumn months but if you are interested in a longer term Winter let then do get in touch directly and I can tell you what might be possible and quote you a price for your situation.

Where you’ll be
Saleres, Andalucía, Spain
The house is on one of the main, narrow, traffic free streets of the sleepy little village of Saleres, which is in the Lecrin Valley, 30 minutes from Granada city and 40 minutes from the beaches of the Costa Tropical.
The village of Restabal is a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk and has several bars, two shops, bank, pharmacy and restaurants. Melegis and its Los Naranjos restaurant with fantastic valley views is just a couple more.
There is fantastic walking in this area straight from the front door. The GR 7 walking route which stretches from Tarifa to Turkey passes right through the village or you can simply walk the track through the terraces to the neighbouring villages of Albunuelas or Restabal. And if you want walking further afield there is always the white villages of Las Alpujarras about an hour away.
Besides walking there is great road and mountain biking in the area, again right out of the front door.

Lives in Bristol, United Kingdom
I live in Bristol, UK with my husband and two teenage children and work for a charity.
We spent many years holidaying in southern Spain, particularly in the Alpujarras and several years ago lived in the old town of Salobrena. We discovered the Lecrin Valley then and decided it was the perfect mix of peaceful and dramatic countryside that was still within a comfortable drive of the coast or Granada. Hope you love it as much as we do.
