WE are really glad to have found this lovely retreat. We hope to return and next time for longer. A week is not long enough! We love the unique seclusion, peace and quite, and rustic charm.

We made the mistake one day of driving to the coast and regretted not staying in our little haven and was glad to return.

We haven't watched TV all week and switched it only on  the last day to check the time for our flight home. Thanks to Rob and Alan & Colleen for your help and hospitality. Hope to see you soon,

Having arrived feeling anxious and tense from our busy fast lives back home, we find ourselves leaving your lovely house feeling fully re-charged, relaxed and happy!! We totally agree with your previous visitors, in particular Paul and Mandy Grace. Couldn't have worded it better!! :) :)

It was the best holiday we have had in a very long time.  It was perfect, in the sense that there was no one for miles and we could just be!  The wildlife kept us entertained, House Martins diving over the pool, the crickets and geckos and so many different birds. We enjoyed ripe almonds from the trees, swimming and sunbathing. But best of all we enjoyed the much needed feeling of peace and quiet! It was good to know that Colleen and Alan were just a phone call away if we needed them, and much thanks to them for such a great introduction to the surrounding area, the house and all its little quirks. Thank you for a great holiday, we will be back next year!*

*It was soooooo good they have booked again for 2009 and 3 weeks in August!

A quiet place in a wild area....We easily imagine Zorro on the hill. Short but great stay out of daily life. We will be back!

We loved the place.  A place to escape to.  More peace and tranquillity than we could imagine.  Just to be back to nature.  Fascinating trees, plants and wildlife.  Silence broken by the wind, insects (grateful for the netting) a few planes and the odd bike.

Taking 3 or 4 dips in the pool everyday, sometimes joined by House Martins! An interesting drive added to the “specialness” of the finca. Comfortable and well equipped with almost everything we needed. Plus the right amount of attention from Colleen and Alan, thank you.

Not mainstream – a place for the connoisseur!

Teresa and Malcolm 25 July to 8 August 2007

A week of total seclusion, peace and privacy! And in a house with its own quirks and character! Marvellous!! J  Being “crowded” (!) by the occasional quad bikers (dots on the far side of the hills), and once by “man on a moped” putt-putting up the hill opposite the patio. We quickly got up as the sun came over one side – and went to bed when it went down on the other! We have talked, sunbathed, slept, ate, sunbathed, splashed in the pool – and then started all over again!!

You ought to market this wonderful place as a retreat: from the day-to-day rushing around; from the lack of just sitting- and for relationships to have the time to appreciate why us two lovebirds have spent so long together.  IT has bee a great week for both of us to have the time, space and freedom from routine and inhibitions and people – and to find how much we love and respect one another )with the time and absence of interruptions to learn a whole let more!!)

A wonderful place to be us! (and wonderful that the screens keep out all the flying things!!)
