We had a wonderful holiday at Casa Cerretillo. It was our first holiday with our 4 month old and it felt like a home away from home. Ursula was very responsive and even purchased a new baby bouncer & play mat for us to use. The welcome package is a great touch as we were unable to go shopping before we arrived too.The location is incredible, up in the hills but not too far away from the airport and other interesting places to visit if you feel like leaving. The views are amazing, especially sunset over the valley.The pool is a great size for swimming & splashing about with a baby, there were a number of lilo's and pool floats available to use. The outdoor kitchen area was extremely useful with a baby, giving us a shaded area with a fan to chill during the day. Lots of cooking equipment to use and even an oven if you want to be lazy.The house itself is huge, it's lovely, clean and full of character, even if we only used a few of the rooms. It would cater for much larger groups if required. We are thinking about returning with family we enjoyed it that much!

Relaxing Stay

The perfect location if you're looking for total relaxation. The pool and outdoor areas were amazing. Total privacy. We flew to Malaga and drove to the house via a big food shop in malaga as whilst there are small shops locally they dont have everything!We cooked and lived outside for 10 days and would recommend to anyone. There were a few good looking restaurants locally but we were to happy and relaxed to leave the poolside.

Fantastic to hear you enjoyed living outside in our new outdoor kitchen diner and large terrace by the pool over looking the Sierra Subbetica. Thanks for giving us such a lovely review. Let me know what you couldn’t find in the local supermarket and I’ll let them know! 🙏 We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

A fantastic villa in a great location with great views. The owners have taken great care to make it a home from home with everything you could need or want. The outside spaces are exceptional with a large patio, outdoor dining/kitchen and a bar. Perfect for watching the sun set behind the mountains. The pool is a major feature and is as big as you could ever hope to get in a villa at this sort of price. If you want peace, quiet and a relaxing experience, then Casa Cerretillo is a great choice.

Delighted that you loved the place and enjoyed the tranquility. Our 5 x 10 metre pool is a lovely size for both getting the lengths in as well as the fun splashing about. Thanks for choosing Casa Cerretillo for your holiday.

Great family holiday in rural Andalucia

All the family loved the villa. It had everything we needed. My son especially enjoyed the pool. There are plenty of shady spots to avoid the hotter temperatures of the day. The location is stunning too, just a few miles away from Algarinejo up in the hills. We made trips to Seville, Granada and Cordoba which were accessable as day trips. I would recommend 100%

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Casa Cerretillo and cannot recommend it highly enough.The house is beautiful, exceptionally well maintained, and equipped with everything you could possibly need. The swimming pool is outstanding and spotless, beautifully cared for, and the perfect place to relax while taking in the breathtaking views of the Andalusian mountains.The kitchen is extremely well equipped with everything needed to prepare meals, and the outdoor kitchen is fantastic. We loved cooking and eating outside while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.On arrival, we were greeted with a lovely welcome pack including fresh eggs, Oliver, milk and wine. It was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.Communication with the host, Ursula, was excellent throughout. She was always quick to respond, incredibly friendly, and genuinely cared about making sure we had the best possible stay.The views are simply spectacular. Whether enjoying our morning coffee or watching the sunset with a glass of wine, we never got tired of looking out across the mountains.Casa Cerretillo is a truly special place where you can completely relax and unwind. We had an unforgettable holiday and will most definitely be back.

Even better than before

This was our second visit to Ursula’s lovely house, the last being nine months previous. There have been some huge changes which made our stay even more enjoyable. There’s a new outdoor kitchen with pizza oven, gas hob, sink and fridge. It’s well lit, sheltered and provides excellent shade. There are new steps leading up to the pool which has also helped and there’s a new area for the sun loungers. A fabulous addition to what was already a great holiday rental. It’s a comfortable, extremely clean, well managed house with amazing views and a fabulous pool. Highly recommended for a peaceful break in the Andalucian hills.

De accommodatie was werkelijk voortreffelijk. Prachtig uitzicht, een fantastische buitenkeuken en een charmant en gezellig huis met groot terras. De communicatie met Ursula was uitstekend! In Algarinejo zijn verschillende goede restaurant en een relatief grote supermarkt waar vrijwel alle levensmiddelen zijn te verkrijgen. Ook de ligging is gunstig voor een bezoek aan Cordoba en Granada. Dit is respectievelijk 1,5 en 1 uur rijden.

Ruhe und Lebensfreude pur

Das Haus war einfach nur wunderbar. Es hat unsere Erwartungen sogar noch übertroffen. Insbesondere die Aussenküche hat uns sehr beeindruckt, diese dürfte man im Inserat unbedingt erwähnen, auch mit Bildern. Im Dorf gibt es einen kleinen Mercado, wo man alles bekommt. Es hat sogar ein Top Restraurant im Dorf, leider hatten sie Ferienpause. Priego und Iznajar sollte man nebst Granada und Gordoba unbedingt besuchen. Die beiden kleinen Orte sind Andalusien pur!

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location

We absolutely loved our time in Ursulas cottage. The view is really special, we were treated to deer running across the opposite hill and eagles flying overhead! There are plenty of very comfortable seating areas outside and a good amount of shade. The pool was spotless and a perfect size. The house was immaculate and the kitchen is very well equipped. Sheets and towels were changed mid way through our two week stay. Sue was so friendly and really helpful when it came to local advice. The local town of Algarinejo is friendly and relaxing with a handful of bars and restaurants and a small supermarket that has everything you need including a small daily fishmongers and butchers. Such a peaceful house in a beautiful place. We can’t recommend it enough.

Maison très agréable avec une jolie vue

Cette maison située dans un coin reculé (sur les hauteurs du village) dispose d'une vue magnifique sur les montagnes environnantes. Confortable, bien équipée, joliment décorée et spacieuse (avec un petit salon au frais, plusieurs douches, une grande cuisine...), cette maison offre un cadre très agréable pour les vacances. La terrasse extérieure est calme, ombragée et parfaitement adaptée aux repas en extérieur. La piscine est grande, très bien exposée au soleil, sans vis-à-vis et propre. Une place de parking permet de garer sa voiture dans de bonnes conditions. Au final, il s'agit d'une excellente maison de location.

Fabulous stay

We had a wonderful stay at Ursula’s beautiful house. Ursula, Sue and Mark were very helpful. This was a long awaited booking from 2020 and it was worth the wait. Beautiful views from the fabulous pool, we loved that the pool was the same depth throughout so was beautifully and warm. Lots of places to sit and enjoy the stunning view. The property is in a wonderful peaceful location , I will miss drinking my morning coffee watching the birds and family of deer just below the house . Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great house with fabulous view.

I stayed in the house with my family and we loved it. A large pool and nice and tidy rooms. We especially loved the quietness, the view and the sunsets. Sue was always very helpful and friendly. We stayed there in summer so hiking was a bit difficult in the heat but for spring and autumn it is a great place to start walks. The next towns are all 30-45 mins away but Algerinejo, a village, is just a 10 minute drive and has shops, restaurants and bars. They even have a Michelin star restaurant (Piolas) which is really outstanding. Very good food for reasonable pricing (considering the Michelin star). Only negative with Piola is, that the prices of the bill in the end was much higher than on the menu. They stated, that the menu was wrong which obviously is a rip off. So if going there it is best let them confirm the prices for the 8 and 12 course menu explicetly.
