Pretty 2 bedroom villa 5 minutes walk from Archez village. The property sits in 2000 metres of landscaped gardens with fruit trees including, figs, lemons, oranges, nisperos, olives, almonds and avocados. There are numerous spacious terraces around the house with outdoor furniture, barbecue etc. The private pool makes our house ideal for families or couples and we have had many solo travellers. The pool area is furnished with sun loungers with padded cushions.The close proximity of the village makes it perfect for guests who do not wish to be driving every day. Our pool is open from April until early October. We have a travel cot and high chair available. Our beds are made up with Egyptian cotton bed linen. Please bring your own beach/pool towels. There are a number of local restaurants and bars within five minutes walk from our house as well as 2 small supermarkets, pharmacy etc. 20 minutes walking takes you to The village of Canillas de Albaida and less than 10 minutes drive takes you to the larger town of Competa. Many of our guests prefer not to rent a car and in this case Maria, our local taxi driver, is available for airport transfers and local trips. 4 WEEKS for THE PRICE OF 3 NOVEMBER TO END of MARCH

Dear Jan Thank you for your lovely review. I am glad that you had a good holiday at our house and you are welcome to return in the future. You certainly enjoyed some lovely weather, always a treat to be eating breakfast outside in December. We arrived in Spain just after you left on 9th January and also enjoyed breakfasts in the morning sun, including oranges from the garden. I know that you made the best of the good weather to go on some long walking trips in the area. We look forward to welcoming you in the future. Best Regards Margaret

Thank you for leaving us such a lovely review, it was a pleasure to have you as our guests and you are more than welcome to return. There is a gentler way to walk to our villa by following the road round to the right after you pass restaurante venta el curro on your right hand side. After following this road round you will then be walking down towards our house instead of up. Takes about 5 minutes longer but a bit easier to deal with. I do walk up the steep way as I find that it helps to offset the calories from the local food Thank you for your lovely comments about our house, we have tried to equip it with everything that we think people, including ourselves, will need for a holiday. Hope to see you again in the future Best Regards Margaret

Thank you for your lovely review, it was a pleasure to have you both in our house for a month. You have been the perfect guests. As you know, I am now in Spain for a short holiday and having spent a few days here, I now know that, not only have you fallen in love with Archez, but the Archeos have also fallen in love with you They are so looking forward to welcoming you back for a 6 month stay later in the year and I am also looking forward to meeting you in Spain. Thank you for the lovely things that you have said about me, I really appreciate it but it was no problem for me to arrange a car and walking guide for you and I am only glad that all went according to plan. It makes sense when renting from an owner to tap into their knowledge and contacts. You are both very welcome to return at any time in the future but in the meantime I will continue looking for a six month rental for you. Hasta Pronto Margaret

Thank you for your lovely review, it was a pleasure to have you both back at our house again and It is great that you are now planning your third stay with us. Thank you also for recommending us to your friends as we have already received 2 bookings from them! Maria, our local taxi driver, will be pleased to hear that you have praised her, she really is great. the majority of our guests are now booking Maria instead of renting a car, now that we have 5 good rstaurants in the village and another 4 in the next village, there is really no need for someone to be the designated driver. And, yes, her dads restaurant is lovely we always make a point of visiting it when we are over. Great that you have made use of the fruit on the trees, the almonds are also lovely. The local supermarket is very well stocked and the owners are very friendly. I know that all of the local businesses really appreciate the custom that they receive from the visitors to our villa as tourism is really important to the small villages and they are always keen to tell us how nice our visitors have been, but we already know that anyway :). You have set the scene for my own trip over at the weekend now. I will pass on your comments about the high standard of cleanliness to Jenny and Carl,our property managers. They do a brilliant job.
