Casa con piscina, a 5 minutos caminando del pueblo, aire acondicionado, Wifi

Thank you Truus and Chuck! So glad you 've enjoyed yourselves! Your appreciation is especially valued as coming from visitors who have the beauty of nature on their own doorstep in Canada!

Hi Cathie! I'm glad you and your family had a good time! About the bed - guess what. We had a long-term winter renter who complained that the bed was too soft. So I bought a new mattress, described as "medium" in terms of softness (which in fact I found preferable, as I have a serious back problem). Well, what can I say...

The visitors who came the week before you fell in love with the cats and encouraged them with nice titbits! I confess to a soft spot for cats myself... but I don't encourage them! Let's all be firm.

One of the charms of this house is that you wake up to a beautiful view, afforded precisely by the said 50-m long incline that leads to the gate. I am sorry you found this aspect inconvenient. And of course we do have a private car park lower down for your use. As for the boiler light that went out, you rang Carmen in the evening and she did pop in to relight it the very next morning. What a shame you were unlucky with the weather - very unusually wet for the time of year.

Oh, dear. Thank you for drawing my attention to various bits and bobs, now sorted (pity you did not let me know at the time). However, I confess that many of your comments are puzzling. The house is not “in the centre” of town, or even in town, but on the outskirts of Orgiva, at the end of a quiet country road (see location map). The swimming pool: you will recall that I called you for a chat as soon as you booked for February. I did say that the pool would open on 1 April as always and added that you could cancel your booking if this was a problem but you said you wanted to proceed. I do apologise that the WiFi didn’t work on the first day. I arranged for the technician to come the very next morning. He did and resolved the problem. I had suggested helpfully that if this visit was not convenient, you might wish to talk to the nearby WiFi office (who speak English) directly if you preferred to arrange a different time. It’s a pity you saw it as asking you to have to deal with this matter yourself. Again, a pity you didn’t use our lovely iron wood stove, which works perfectly. You may have not noticed that the smoke was from the candle that someone had placed on top of it, causing it to burn out and emit smoke when the stove was lit. Incidentally, we ask visitors not to use candles in the house, for reasons of safety. The cables: these are provided on demand for the convenience of visitors from countries with different plugs, and are fully protected by 10 A MCBs and 30 mA RCDs, thus safe. As for communications, you sent me 16 emails before your visit, all of which I answered promptly and politely. I can only repeat that I am sorry that your enjoyment of the holiday was marred.

Gracias Marta - y tambien para dejar la casita tan limpia!

Los esperamos! ¡Hasta la próxima!
