About this property
Cottage La Alberca for 4 people
Welcome to Buena Vista Cottages: sustainable tourism in Alpujarras of Granada - Sierra Nevada Natural Park
The Cottage La Alberca has two double bedrooms, kitchen (fridge freezer and all the basic equipment), lounge with fireplace, living room with sofa bed and bathroom. Central heating during the cool period. Cottage 4 to 5 people.
Pool, to be shared between guests is just beside the house, separated by a wooden fence, ivy and a source of fresh water.
You will find the living room and bedroom on the ground floor and a bedroom, lounge, kitchen including the bathroom are on the first floor. To meet the old building, access to the upper floor is a wooden staircase (see photos). The atmosphere of the house is rustic, with antique farm tools.
We are in the center of Alpujarras, in the Park of Sierra Nevada and adjacent to the National Park, in the valley with more biodiversity in Europe, 15 km from the Recreation Station Puerto de la Ragua , 30 km from the Highway A-92, next to the E4 GR-7 (European long distance path), ... the Buena Vista Villa is probably the oldest and most traditional of La Alpujarra in an organic farm. Approved by the Ministry of Tourism with nº CR/GR/00024.
Over 200 years looking at Laroles with Sierra Gador the background to the left Sierra Nevada, and right the Mediterranean Sea.
Buena Vista Villa is an old farmhouse renovated with several buildings style (flat roofs covered launa, fireplaces topped with slabs of slate, stone walls , ...) within a farm with more than 2 hectares of chestnut and fruit trees (chestnut, pear, apple, walnut, cherry, apricot, persimmon, quince and almond trees), in the Natural Park and in the most authentic part of Alpujarras and the Andalusian Legacy Trail. We offer a nice swimming-pool with filter for the summer months, where they will enjoy healthy water alpujarreñas, looking across the valley of the River Laroles dotted with old mills hydraulic. The charm of a unique landscape.
All homes are different, we try to offer an experience of returning to nature, to the home of our ancestors, but with the comforts of today and respect for the environment around us. Each house has its own space with benches and tables to sit in the sun or in the shade of a chestnut, several eucalyptus or some vines.

What makes this property unique
To visit ...
If you want, you can not say there is nothing to see or do during your holiday.
The Alpujarras and villages
The rural area from which most writers have written centuries. Hung on a constellation of the southern slope of the Sierra Nevada, where you can visit the nearest villages, Laroles-Júbar-Mairena and PICENA that make up the city of Nevada, or the path of the white population of the villages Alpujarra: Valor, Yegen, Mecina Bombarón, Bérchules then Trevélez and Poqueira Canyon (Bubión Capileira and Pampaneira).
Sierra Nevada was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1986. And the Natural Park of the Junta de Andalucía. In 1999, a large part of its territory was declared a National Park for its botanical, scenic, and natural values. The flora of La Alpujarra, and by extension, Sierra Nevada, is one of the most precious of all Europe, with over 2,000 listed plants and approximately 70 unique species. Forest of oak, green oak, pine, chestnut, cork remain ... In its amazing ecosystems more than 60 bird species, 140 endemic insects, and among other mammals, Capra pyrenaica, the Queen of heights.
The "Puerto de la Ragua" is 15 minutes from Buena Vista, at 2000 m altitude. In this space, in addition to hosting the leisure center of Puerto Ragua, where you can practice many sporting activities, you can see spectacular scenery if you walk a bit to the "Morrón del Hornillo" or "Chullo" as well as the peaks, you will see the great plain of Marquesado, Sierra de Baza, the Filabres and even the Sierra de Cazorla, to the north, to the south you can see the Sierra de Gador, Contraviesa, the Mediterranean Sea and some day Africa.
The beaches of the Mediterranean: You can take a dip in Adra beach, the nearest 45 minutes from Cottage. Also nearby are Balanegra and Almerimar on the coast of Almería, Granada and La Rabita. A little further, but accessible early departure are the incredible beaches Mónsul, Genoveses, Escullos ... in Cabo de Gata natural park.
