A nice out of time little place

We spend a few days in the calm of the Sierra Nevada mountains, away from the overwhelming heat, in the little two level house, with the bedroom under the living space. It was nice and rustic, just like we hoped it would be. The surroundings are splendid!

Alpujarras

Carlos and Ute were marvellous hosts. We enjoyed the cottage, with all necessary amenities. Carlos advised us about walks and ran us up to the bus to the Sierra Nevada. A wonderful place to explore quiet Spain

Superó nuestras expectativas. La casa es muy acogedora y limpia. Incluye todos los accesorios necesarios tanto en cocina como baño, habitación… cuidando al detalle cada necesidad que pueda surgir. Los anfitriones (Ute y Carlos) son muy amables, cercanos y generosos, siempre ofreciendo ayuda para lo que necesitáramos. Y si vas con perro esta casa es también la mejor opción. Mi mujer Carmen y yo volveremos seguro.

Authentiek verblijf

Prachtig gelegen authentiek huisje in een zeer rustig gelegen gehucht. Heel volledig qua keukenuitrusting. Ute en Carlos zijn fijne gastheren! Wij maakten daar een prachtige wandeling en konden heerlijk eten in de Pizzeria, tussen de Spanjaarden

Un retiro de ensueño

Dentro de la masificación que sufre la Alpujarra en puentes festivos, Fondales es un oasis de tranquilidad, paz y sosiego. Además tanto como los propietarios como los lugareños, nos trataron siempre con excelente hospitalidad. Lo recomendaré a todos mis conocidos.
