Rural Alpendre - Saint Lucia - The Mountain
General description This property, dating from 1845 and completely renovated in 2012, is located in the interior of the island of Gran Canaria, in the municipality of Santa Lucía de Tirajana. It is comprised of two completely independent houses one from the other, a century-old house and a rural porch with more than 100 years old, in addition to having parking and swimming pool completely private. The caves of the Guanches shelter it from any hint of civilization. It is the perfect place for those who love silence.
One of the main attractions of this beautiful place are the contrasts of the vegetation and the arid zones it contains. The olive tree is characteristic of the farm to which the house belongs, and the nearest town, Santa Lucia, is located 5 kilometers away. This picturesque town of Gran
Canaria has artisans dedicated to various disciplines (ceramics, looms, palm ...) and an agricultural market every Sunday of the week, being able to acquire fresh products directly from those who work the land. In addition to the countless birds that fly over the area with their peculiar songs, the Tirajana basin, to the southwest of the island, provides a bright sun almost all year round.
How to move
The means of transport recommended to access the house and to move from it to other places on the island is the car.
Mainly, because there is no means of public transport that can make the journey between the nearest town (Santa Lucia de Tirajana) and the house itself. In addition, the property has a completely private parking to park the vehicle that is rented.
Due to the situation of the house, right in the center of Gran Canaria, there is the possibility of combining the more mountain activities with those that are more typical of the coast. This is due to the good road connections of the town of Santa Lucia, which makes it very easy to reach other points of the island's geography.
Attention to guests
The attention to those who decide to stay in this property will be completely personalized 24 hours a day. If you have any questions or any inconvenience, you will be provided with a telephone number to resolve any matter at the time that is necessary and in the fastest and most professional way possible..
Other noteworthy aspects
It is practically indispensable to have a vehicle and driving license to access the house and / or move from it to other places on the island, since it is only possible to do so by road. In addition, another positive aspect of the place is the invitation that makes the guests of this house to go hiking and walking in the area. During the spring it is almost essential to let the ear guide you to the ravine, which probably runs water during these dates.
House rules
At Finca Mariola we want the guest to feel at home. It is precisely for this reason that we ask all those who stay in it to treat this house as if it were theirs. In the event that anything breaks or breaks down, we ask that you let us know immediately so there is total transparency.
Services and common areas
Each house has its own privacy and its own services. Nothing is shared with any other guest who may be living at the same time as another. Each one will have their own parking and the houses do not communicate at any time.
As for the services available to each house, we highlight each of the kitchens in each of the houses, as they are fully equipped (oven, vitro, microwave, dishwasher, minipimmer, etc). Each of the houses has its rest area and its own outdoor pool. In addition, the property also has Wi-Fi network for those who can not resist the temptation to reconnect with the outside world. You will not miss anything!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony or patio. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

Très agreable sejour
Belle maison pour 2 personnes au calme, à découvrir par une route quelquefois un peux endroite. Nous avons eu un très agreable séjour avec des fascilités pas trop loin. Le restaurant Casa Antonio à Santa Lucia est superbe!

Splendid house in the mountains
The house in which we stayed for a week is very beautiful, its location in the mountains offers a wonderful view of the valley. Very quiet, it offers all the necessary comfort: a large bed, kitchen equipment to the height, TV, CD player, wifi connection, everything is there. We especially appreciated the friendliness and discretion of the owner. Very good. Thanks Octavio.

Beautiful spot "at the end of the world"
We, a family of 3 with a little girl of 5 (Dutch/French), had a very nice week in Finca Mariola the second week of april. We loved the house in the typical Canarian style and the gorgeous views down the valley and to the rough mountain ridge, far away from the mass tourism.
Nice furniture and bedding, all in style and clean.The small swimming pool was unfortunately too cold, so sun heaters we highly recommend, as there is plenty of sunshine. The sun beds with mattrasses in the garden are great. The parasol does not work well as it is not heavy enough to cope with the strong winds. It often came down. Shadow you can find though of the little trees behind. Every morning we were happy with the fresh eggs from our chickens. However, beware of the cats who like to sneek into the house! Our daughter could still fit in the baby bed, which she liked. However, for a child a bit older, it would be nice to have an extra bed or the couch converted into a bed. For three persons, the kitchen equipement is not sufficient. Extra plates, mugs and bowls are needed. We refurnished a bit the kitchen as the removal of the microwave from the table. What we miss is a small wardrobe to hang the clothes, or, perhaps better as space is limited, a coat rack on/next to the door with cloths hangers.
The house is difficult to reach and is not signposted. Especially the last part is rough as it is a very small steep windy track. It is faster to walk to San Bartolomé (just follow the water pipe after the second rental house and continue on the road, follow the marks from there) than taking the car....
We recommend the small etnographic museum in San Bartolomé; the nice keeper runs here the tourist office as well and can give you detailed walking information, also by using Google Earth. Within some years a walking route will be opened to visit the numerous caves in the mountain behind the house. It is not possible now due to overgrown vegetation and steepness. We had great hikes from the Rother walking guide: 37 (round of San Bartolomé-Degollada de Manzanilla-Cruz Grande-St. Jacobsway), 39 Santa Lucia-La Fortaleza-La Sorrueda-El Ingenio); 7: Cruz Grande - Pico de la Nieves.
Enjoy your meal with the locals in the bar in Taidía, being the nearest restaurant
The remarks of Alexis: "belle situation calme et reposante mais accès en voiture long et difficile. Prix exagéré par rapport au confort et à l' équipement minimaliste. Problème d' écoulement d' eau dans la douche.

Eine sehr schöne, ruhige Ferienwohnung - A wonderful place to relax and go hiking
Das Häuschen in den Bergen ist wunderschön, ruhig gelegen und hat eine tolle Aussicht, die Ausstattung ist gut und modern, und es gibt sogar Hühner, die jeden Morgen frische Eier legen! Der Vermieter Octavio ist sehr nett und immer um Verbesserungen bemüht. Von hier aus kann man auch schöne Wanderungen unternehmen.
