About this property

Country cottage with private pool and magnificent views to Morocco

For some years now the Costa de la Luz has been courted by the travel scene as the place 'to go'. The natural beauty, unspoilt beaches, watersports and Andalucian charm are just a few reasons to come and visit. Casita Las Terrazas presides in the hills, over looking a truly remarkable view to Africa. Ten minutes to cosmopolitan Tarifa and the incredible beaches or ten minutes in the opposite direction to the fantastic daily market of Algeciras. The casita is set in the large grounds made up of 7 terraces, which once used to be a market garden. Weave between shaded corks, flower beds and a natural space rich in birdsong and fauna. Palms tower high, and the mature gardens provide a special ambiance to get that element we all need to relax on holiday.

Good weather turns inside living outside and you'll find the large outside terrace becomes the hub for BBQs, hammock life, and simply soaking up the sun whilst absorbed with the beauty of the mountain range across the Gibraltar Straits. The deep pool provides a wind free way to cool off and the mature gardens offer space and peace from the outside world.

Your comfort is well set up with a large double bed (zip bed converts to 2 singles), a basic but well equipped galley kitchen, shower/ compact bath, simple and comfortable furnishings.

Very well cared-for, a great get-away spot for two.
Spent a great week there, scenic views over the Strait of Gibraltar, and the large grounds are gorgeous. We enjoyed the settee on the front landing for sitting out and relaxing, and had our meals out there as well. The casita is comfortable and well looked after. The owners (Amy and Alistair) were welcoming and attentive. Tarifa is quite close, for groceries, and the beaches along the Costa del Luz are much more natural (and uncrowded) than the Costa del Sol. A great base, away from the crowds, certainly hope to return again. E&H (Canada)

Great escape within reach of all the sights
Thanks to Amy for such a lovely stay! Very relaxing and a beautiful location looking out to Morocco on a clear day. The dogs provided great entertainment. Loved the cool pool. Lush gardens and a very welcoming host. Felt totally relaxed here. Also close enough to get on the road and see the sights.

Très belle vue sur le detroit de Gibraltar
Nous avons passé 15 jours dans cette maison au mois d'août 2023. L'endroit est très agréable, entouré d'un parc verdoyant et doté d'une piscine située dans un écrin de verdure. Amy et son époux sont charmants. Suite à un problème de santé, Amy nous a beaucoup aidé dans ce pays ou nous ne maîtrisons pas la langue. Maison indépendante, à recommander

A hidden gem
What a lovely place. The Casita is small but has everything you need for a perfect holiday. It’s tucked in its own gardens, the view from the terrace across to Morocco is amazing. Amy and Alistair are close by if you need anything but you are completely private in and around the Casita. The flowers and trees make it so beautiful. We watched the swifts, bats and butterflies while chilling on the terrace. The pool is again in a secluded spot. I cannot recommend this place enough. Tarifa old town was a 10 minute easy drive. It’s very lively with lots of restaurants and boutique shops but no awful English pubs etc!! Definitely much more off the beaten track Spain. The beaches at Los Lances and Bolonia are amazing, can be a bit breezy hence all the kite surfers but a good way of staying cool. If you want to stay in a private spot but with the town within east reach, this is for you! Thank you to Amy and Alistair, perfect hosts!
