Serene Cave House with Private Garden & Child-Safe Pool | House in Órgiva, Spain

Welcome to our Andalusian-Arabic cave country house in the middle of the evergreen mountains of the Alpujarra, the fertile southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, Spain's largest national park, diverse, beautiful, wild, unique, spoiled by 300 days of sunshine a year and blessed by a great abundance of water. The holiday home is partly built into the rock in a small valley on a southern slope, hidden in a quiet, lonely, rural location with a great view of the mountains and surrounded by blooming nature. It is nestled between orange and olive trees in an evergreen subtropical garden with a private, child-safe pool, a playground, a large barbecue and parking directly at the house.
Quietness, calm, green nature, the proximity to the village, the special child-friendliness and safety, good building fabric and quality equipment, the special flair of ancient architecture, good insulation, modern details, our services and our personal care make this holiday property the ideal place for a relaxed and unforgettable vacation.

Both bedrooms have direct access to a large terrace covered by an ancient grape vine, which extends about the entire front of the house and provides pleasant shade in summer. The terrace in front of the living area is covered, in front of it there is a large sun terrace with sun loungers. Its 60 cm thick walls, a bedroom carved into the rock as a cave, its rustic open fireplace in the living room and its location between hundred-year-old olive trees give this Cortijo a very unique and exclusive ambience. To reach the back cave bedroom, one have to cross through the front twin bedroom. The pool (safe for children, 4m x 6.50m + baby area; March to November) is also completely private and exclusively available to you. It is surrounded by orange trees and a green lawn to relax on.

THE ENVIRONMENT
The holiday villa is settled into the real heart of the Alpujarra, in the middle of the fertile southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada and its impressive flora and fauna. This green Garden of Eden stands out above all for its strong contrasts between Arabic, terraced and irrigated cultural landscapes and its wild alpine landscapes as well as for its year-round mild and sunny microclimate.
You can go on hikes through the valley or to the surrounding hills and mountains directly from the holiday home. Excursions to the picturesque mountain villages or to the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada can be made by car. The spectacular mountain range reaches a height of 3,484 m and is home to the most diverse flora in its five climatic zones between the subtropical coastal region and its glacier as of the clearest starry sky in Europe .
Órgiva offers numerous street cafes and restaurants, small shops, a colorful weekly market and a market hall which offers al kind of fresh groceries on fish, meat, vegetable and herb stalls, as well as a sound infrastructure of small grocery stores, organic shops, ATMs, a post office and a small emergency hospital. We like to describe Orgiva as a "normal", i.e. naturally grown village with a touch of New Age, but not as touristy.
ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS IN THE AREA
Blessed with plenty of sun and mild weather all year round, this region offers an endless variety of possibilities, activities and holiday arrangements.

It is consistently green in winter and also in midsummer and an ideal spot to explore the real Andalusia, away from the tourist hustle and bustle.
There are inexhaustible possibilities for the nature lover. Countless hiking routes lead through olive and orange groves, past picturesque mountain villages, vineyards and wineries, through forests, wide valleys and narrow gorges, to crystal-clear mountain streams, spring lagoons and snow-capped peaks.
The nearby coast offers in addition to lively coastal towns many small and hidden bays. Some have only a small fish restaurant and others have only sand or rocks. Some can only be reached on foot.
This region offers all year round - even in the winter season - the possibility of relaxation and all kind of different activities as well as its varied gastronomic offer. Because in every season the region lives to the fullest and sights, cafes, restaurants and fish restaurants on the beaches are open all year round.
