Nature & Tranquility at The Stables
Wake up to birds singing and breakfast on comfortable chairs on the covered veranda amongst the many olive and orange trees. There's a secluded garden area with plenty of cushioned sunbeds and the whole, large garden is fenced in which meant our dogs could have a wander. It was lovely to watch the horses being exercised at the riding school just across the adjoining field and the garden area is bigger than it appears in photos so a pleasant surprise.
Inside there's everything we needed from a well-furnished kitchen to 2 large wardrobes with cupboards. Stuff we normally bring for self catering wasn't needed as this house had everything - from a magnify bathroom mirror, to extension leads to shoe horn! The kitchen utensil drawer was full and even included a potato masher!..plus the house is cosy with heating if you need it.
We'd just missed watching their harvest but benefitted from a supply of freshly produced olive oil and you can pick oranges and pomegranates directly from the trees. Freshly laid eggs are available from Michael & Pirrko's (friendly) chickens.
We stayed in November so didn't swim but the pool is very pretty with a shallow walk-in end ideal for families and there were plenty of cushioned sunbeds.
You need a car but once in it, local shops & Vera town are 5 mins, beach 12mins, nearest golf course 10 mins. Overall this accomodation was perfect for our 3&half week stay with hosts Michael and Pirrko being good fun but also very respectful of our privacy.

Lovely and peaceful
Whilst writing in the guest reviews book is good, most people nowadays prefer to read (and share) about other guests experiences on line.
We we are just coming to the end of our two weeks here -our first experience - and will sadly be flying home tomorrow. When we first arrived we didn’t immediately know what to make of living in a rural house away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas of Spain. We quickly settled into a relaxed way of holiday life.
You have everything you could wish for here, without venturing too far. Vera town is but 5 minutes drive away where there are some nice restaurants and many supermarkets. Iceland Overseas supplies just about any British food you could want, from Waitrose products and other brands. They even have their own meat counter with quality meat cut to order. Bistro gravy? Yes, that’s there too. If your coming from the UK, you don’t need to bring your own bacon or mustard, it’s all here. Lidl and Supermercado complete the selection of products available.
There are also some scenic drives along the coast road up to Aquilas and in the other direction too taking you to some tiny, quiet coves all to yourself. The nearest beach is Puerto Rey which even at weekends is fairly empty and quiet.
Being a truly rural Spanish farming area, many locals eat late, so as we tend to eat early, we tended to have the local menu del dia at lunchtimes, with a snack in the evenings. I have to say that the owners, Michael and Pirrko, are always there if needed, and their fresh eggs from their ‘girls’ have orange yolks and are lovely. The pool area is quiet and the only sounds to be heard are the breezes rustling the olive, limes, lemons and fig trees as you kick back and enjoy the sunshine.
Enjoy, Meg & Derek (Cambridgeshire)
