Everything you need is in the house. The garden is beautiful, the pool perfect and it is a super quiet place. The watercooker had problems and Peter came direct and brought a new one. We just loved it!

A very enjoyable stay

We had a great week here, the house has everything you need, set in beautiful gardens and with amazing views. Peter is a lovely host. We would definitely recommend this place and would love come back some day. Orgiva is a very friendly town. We would recommend Baraka and Pizza N Love for food and also Nur Bakery for bread and amazing cakes

Fab, secluded property with views to die for!

This was a holiday we will never forget. We were met by Peter, the most affable of hosts, whose recommendations about what to do and where to eat were extremely useful. The house was lovely - very secluded and the highlight for us was the huge terrace with mountain views. We will remember relaxing here listening to Cat Stevens! Thank you Peter for a wonderful stay.

Great holiday

Nothing to complain about. Peter very helpful, house in great spot. Dip in the pool followed by evenings on the Veranda were a joy. As was visiting the out lying villages like Capiliera. Great place to explore the Sierra Navarda from, if you like cycling/walking.

Perfect stay!

Lovely place! We stayed here for the first week of our honeymoon and we loved it! It’s very private and the garden is lovely with lots of fruit trees! We spent a few days by the pool and visiting nearby villages. Other days we went to Granada, to the Alhambra, went on some lovely hikes close by and just really had a full experience. Peter was very friendly and helpful. The house has everything you need and there’s a big shop about 10mins away which also has everything you might need to buy..

Peace and Quiet

We really enjoyed the ‘rustic’ quality of the property. Access via the narrow road was a challenge, at times, but didn’t detract too much from a wonderful break and a good holiday. Thanks very much ! We leave in the morning. Key left as instructed.

Lovely place

Very nice villa and pool, in a large garden filled with different fruit trees. It is private, neighbouring houses are a long way away. We didn't have any issues with the road either driving it or walking. Lovely views of the mountains. Thank you Peter, we had a much needed rest and relaxing holiday. Agree with an earlier reviewer, Orgiva has its own vibe. It is very laid back and you can find everything you need.

Perfect quiet holiday with our 8 month old

We've just had a wonderful stay here with our baby for her first holiday. The location is beautifully peaceful surrounded by mountain views, not too difficult to get to either. The host was friendly and check-in simple, just what we needed. For a quiet getaway with excellent views and everything you need for a home from home feel this place has it all. Jojo the cat became a part of our family for the week too, very affectionate which our daughter loved! Huge selection of music and films to choose from for entertainment, never bored. Overall really happy with our stay and would definitely stay again.

Lovely relaxing stay. The villa was great & totally secluded - had everything we needed - the pool was fantastic - not overlooked. Sunset over the mountains was a highlight. Plenty of shade. Pete helpful upon arrival & didn’t both us at all while we were there. Didn’t see him after check in. Our 3 year old son had such a fun time exploring the grounds & playing in the pool. Really expansive shade to keep him protected. Orgiva is a gateway to the seaside, traditional Spanish towns, Granada & beyond. I’d highly recommend this to anyone - children or no children - it’s genuinely a place to energise & restore.

Lovely place, great cat and superb host

Lovely place, very peaceful, comfortable. Enjoyed sitting on the veranda for morning coffee and meals with great view of mountains. House has all the amenities you need. Great cat - the house has its own cat who is quite the friendliest cat ever. Superb host - Peter was more than helpful, meeting us late at night as our schedule meant we were very late. He was also incredibly helpful is assisting with a minor issue we had. All in all thoroughly recommended

Beautiful outlook

The ‘Hole in the Wall’ is a lovely property. The outside porch was excellent to watch the mountains change colour with the time of day. Location was good once we got the hang of the road to and from the property. Restaurants/Tapas bars were excellent. Orgiva has its own vibe. It is a working town but has an eclectic range of people, very friendly especially Mario’s for breakfast/brunch (Toastadas). Easy access to the small villages in the Alpuljarra mountains. Orgiva’s Thursday morning market is a must. Overall it was a lovely relaxing stay, beautiful surroundings at the property.

Good hoise

House had everything we needed, including the bonus of lots of dvds for the day it rained. Lovely big garden with fantastic view of the surrounding hills. Quiet and relaxing. Pool was great for dipping but bit small for serious swimmers. Host Peter is easy to contact and very helpful. House has a house cat who mostly lives outside but does ’talk’ a lot. It’s a 5 min drive, 20 min walk into nearest town, Orgiva, which is small but has everything you might need.

Idyllic location, spacious, comfortable and clean

We stayed for a week with our children aged 9 and 11. Peter met us and directed us to the property which was walking distance (<15 mins) from Órgiva but nicely isolated. The place was comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. There was a supermarket and other stores in Órgiva and lucky for us some ripe pomegranates in the garden too! One note for those with younger children is the second bedroom is off the terrace so not connected directly to the main house - this was fine for us and is clear in the description but worth flagging as might not fit so well for younger children. The pool was clean and perfect for a dip and the garden really spacious - we especially enjoyed the terrace where we ate most meals. Locally so much is accessible - we walked into Orgiva a few times and especially enjoyed the market, the library (Don Quixote exhibit!) and eating at Baraka. We also had a lovely coffee and snacks at the Cafe Galinda Plaza. We visited some of the white villages and loved Trevelez -we ate well at the restaurante la fragua- and left with plenty of ham. The kids enjoyed the 3 pigs trail. Kids also enjoyed Soportuja - the witch theme was fun but also a beautiful village and views. We took water from the amazing fizzy spring at Portugos - mixed reviews - I loved it - kids said it 'tasted like old coins smell' - still worth a visit. Thanks so much to Peter for hosting us and providing a little local context. I hope we will be back to the area again in time!

3 weeks in the Alpujarras

The house has an odd name-Hole in the Wall, but when you arrive, you understand the reason. The streets in the small town of Orgiva are small, maybe one car width wide and require vigilance and occasionaly reverse to negotiate. The house is set in what was probably a households farm plot at one time. There is a beautiful view of the Sierra San Lugar to the south from an expansive covered patio and to the north, a view of the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada with views of a couple of the "white villages" and the Poquiera gorge. We found the home delightful with the pool and surrounding orchards of olives, almonds, pomegranates, loquat, figs and oranges. The location is very private and the sound of the goat bells, roosters and burros in the distance in the morning while you enjoy your coffee on the back patio while watching the sun play on the mountains is something to behold. In the evening, the view with a wine or cocktail is just as beautiful. As we were here in late spring, the sunny days were warm but the breeze from the mountains kept the place cool and comfortable and the shade from patio was great. When it got warm enough, the pool was available and drying off in a chaise under the olive trees was quite pleasant. Peter and his wife Carolyn were great hosts and had we needed it, would have responded with any requests or assistance. Overall, we had a great time there and recommend it to any one wishing a lovely time in sunny (most of the time) southern Spain

Haus, Grundstück, Pool und Blick sind toll. Peter ist ein netter Gastgeber. Aber das Haus wird sehr heiß, es hat kein AC, deshalb müssten unbedingt ein paar funktionierende Ventilatoren bereit gestellt werden! Vielleicht auch Moskitonetze. Draußen schlafen ist schwierig mit Mücken und Hundegebell.
