Stunning and peaceful location
We've just had 10 days in this lovely cottage in the peaceful village of Montejaque. The location is superb with a glimpse of the impressive cliff face visible from the patio. It's a short walk to reach a track giving glorious vista's over the mountainous scenery. If you're into wildlife, the birding is great, seeing Griffon vultures and Booted Eagle without even moving from the patio. We bought a book called Walking the Mountains of Ronda and Grazelema by Guy Hunter-Watts and published by Cicerone. This gave excellent guided walks from Montejaque and other beautiful villages just a short drive away. Well worth the £9.95 price tag. The cottage was ideal. It was very well equipped and attractively furnished. Apart from the bedroom there is a lovely sitting room that has patio doors leading on to the patio. Being late March the evenings were chilly and the woodburner was perfect for providing extra cosiness. Plenty of fuel was provided. A couple of good restaurants in the village meant no evening driving unless you wanted to travel further afield. The cottage is nicely furnished with lots of lamps to give subtle lighting and there is absolutely no traffic noise as cars seldom venture up the steep tracks. Although it was no problem to us, the cottage is situated up a steep, narrow road leading up from the attractive square. The car is left a good couple of hundred metres away and you need to walk. It is very atmospheric though and quite a change from most British holiday locations. The owners were very helpful and wanted to make sure we had a good stay and were more than willing to answer any questions. A great holiday and a highly recommended location for people who'd like an active break in a beautiful, friendly and peaceful village.
Stunning location
We love Gaucin. We stayed for two weeks (in another property) last August, and thought we would try it again to see what its like for 4 nights in March.
The studio is in a stunning location - the views are just breath-taking. It does get breezy, and it was colder than we expected, but the studio itself is cosy with the two heaters supplied.
We ate out each night - partly because we like it, but also the studio 'kitchen' isn't really suited to preparing meals ....... and huddled around a table eating in the main bedroom didn't really appeal. It was also too cold to dine on the patio.
Contact with Mark was flawless throughout. Very quick to respond, very clear instructions and directions ..... and he checked we were all OK throughout.
Parking is normally right outside the property. We had no problem on the first two days, but did struggle the next two as both spaces were taken - although we don't know who by as the Villa appeared empty.
For a short stay, the studio was ideal. For anything longer and a larger party, the main villa is definitely the way to go. We've only seen the inside photos via the website, but its clearly a VERY special and loved property.
Thanks very much Mark for allowing us to stay.
