Mountain idyll.

We have just arrived home from a wonderful 2 weeks in La Fontana. It is an idyllic property that lies just outside the lovely town of Cortes de la Frontera. The house's proximity to the town meant we were able to walk to 2 very good restaurants and roll back having eaten good tapas and drunk local wine. The house is well equipped and utterly charming. The views from the garden/pool are everything you could hope for in hiring a house in the mountains. A special mention must go to Oso, Joanna's wonderful dog, who made us feel completely at home. He is a gentle giant, and we already miss him.

Maison confortable, au calme, dans un jardin de rêve.

Nous avons passé 12 nuits en famille dans cette jolie maison spacieuse, confortable et bien équipée. Nous avons apprécié la situation de la maison et de son magnifique jardin. Au calme, face à la montagne, en bordure du village où on peut se rendre à pied et où il y a tous les commerces: supermarchés, poissonnerie, bars, restaurants, banques, station essence etc... Joanna est une personne très discrète mais soucieuse du bien-être des vacanciers. Disponible, elle répond tout de suite à nos demandes si besoin. Toute la famille a vraiment apprécié le séjour dans ce coin typique de l'Andalousie, au milieu de ses villages blancs et à seulement 35 minutes de la magnifique ville de RONDA.

A lovely, peaceful and relaxing place

We totally enjoyed our stay at the property. It was exactly what we hoped for - rustic and a little bit quirky but also it had everything that we needed for a relaxing and totally enjoyable stay. Joanna is a lovely host and a very interesting person. Of course, Osso and Ella (here two dogs) are adorable and the two cats paid us regular visits too. The outside space is a joy, eating breakfast and dinner outside every day in such lovely surroundings. Location wise, being on the edge of the village was perfect. Quiet and relaxing but with the village amenities a few minutes walk away. We had a great stay.

Perfecto para desconectar

Es un lugar ideal para descansar y desconectar de la rutina. La casa está perfectamente equipada con todo lo necesario para pasar unos días de relax . No dispone de TV pero nos vino muy bien para hacer otro tipo de actividades y cómo dispone de Wifi, cualquier necesidas está cubierta con los móviles. Los niños no pararon de disfrutar de la piscina y los mayores no nos separamos de la barbacoa ;) En definitiva, nos ha encantado a todos y Joanna es una anfitriona maravillosa. Esperamos volver pronto !!

Ferienidylle

Am Ortsrand gelegen, mit dem Auto gut zu erreichen. Grosser Stellplatz, Anwesen auf sehr großem Gelände mit schön angelegten Garten und Blick auf die Berge. Swimmingpool wird täglich gepflegt. Das Haus ist (typisch spanisch)rustikal ausgestattet, alle wichtigen Dinge sind vorhanden (inkl. Grillplatz auf Terrasse).Vermieterin sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, wohnt in der Nähe. Wir haben 3 Wochen in dieser Idylle sehr genossen.

PARFAIT

Nous avons passé 10 jours dans la maison de Joanna. La maison est conforme aux photos, et même encore plus belle en réalité. Très bien équipée, décorée avec goût avec de nombreuses toiles très intéressantes. La piscine est splendide, réellement privée, avec une vue à couper le souffle. Cortes de la Frontera est un village blanc très agréable, avec de multiples bars, restaurants à tapas, et commerces. Nous vous conseillons l'excellent la Puerte de Atras avec sa petite terrasse avec également une vue splendide. Prix dérisoires des tapas. Les chiens de Joanna sont un bonus, une compagnie très agréable même si nous avions notre propre animal. Joanna est très discrète et on sent qu'elle veille à ce que tout se passe bien. Parfait de bout en bout. Location de grande qualité.

Peaceful, comfortable and fun house in a perfect location for exploring and close to a pretty town

The house and garden made for a perfect rural retreat for us! The house was spacious and pretty with comfortable beds and lovely hot showers and well equipped with everything you could need. The best part of the house is the garden and outdoor space - lots of areas to sit and relax in sun or shade, plenty of space for the kids to play and of course the pool which was great fun. We enjoyed having daily visits from Joanna's dogs which just added to the homely feel. The house is a few minutes walk into the village which was great to get provisions and has plenty of places to get a coffee, a meal or a lovely cake - we all enjoyed the bakery! Cortes de la frontera is a fabulous town, with an authentic feel. Great to be among the locals and to enjoy a real Spanish atmosphere. It's also brilliantly located, close to national parks (cork forest walks on the doorstep) and within easy striking distance of Ronda (a stunning mountain drive away) with all that has to offer and other white villages such as Gaucin, Cassares etc. Joanna was there to greet us and we appreciated the beautiful flowers she had placed around the house. It was good to know she was here if we needed any advice but we found our way around without a hitch and the Cortes TIC was helpful for walk suggestions. We all had a fantastic holiday and we're delighted with our choice of place to stay. Highly recommended!

Lovely property with good views

This is a lovely property with good views and the garden is pretty. Not suitable for two couples as hardly any wardrobe space or privacy upstairs but ideal for a young family with children although the interior stairs are pretty steep. The access road is extremely steep but it did get easier (!) to walk after a while. The dogs are very affectionate and loving, even if a bit noisy at night. Joanna is a very helpful host and is on hand if there are any problems. The town itself is really pretty with some interesting old buildings.

Property pretty basic no luxuries. Entrance difficult but setting nicely situated.

Was quite a shock when first arrived but gradually got used to it as did not want to spoil our holiday. Property rustic and basic but served its purpose. Did feel that a good spring clean could have been carried out. Plenty of hot water for baths and showers. Felt that the windows needed curtains for some privacy especially in the bathroom. The main bed was only a double so the spare bed was used. The sheets and bedding needed to be replaced with new.

Beautiful peaceful fantastic villa!

Just back from a fabulous stay at this gorgeous home from home. The villa is spacious comfortable and well equipped. The pool was great for us and our children (3 & 6) and there was also plenty of garden for playing and exploring. The lawn was a big bonus with small children. Joanna was very friendly helpful and kindly showed us around the lovely town which let us find treats we might have missed otherwise! The kids totally loved playing with her friendly animals when they came to visit! The villa setting is as described complete privacy but it's still only a few minutes walk into town. You definitely need a car to get here and although we could have spent every day relaxing in the villa we also explored local caves, amazing lakes and beaches which are all within 20mins - 1.5hr drive. Perfect holiday - Thankyou so much Joanna! Hope to see you again soon!

A wonderful, wildlife filled stay in the heart of Andalucia. A real get away from it all location.

Joanna was a welcoming host to her lovely rustic cottage, hidden in the folds of the Park National. Plenty of room for the two of us with a wonderful shaded terrace, perfect for lunch and escaping the hottest times of the day. Open plan living downstairs allowed more than enough space for cooking, with a lovely balcony area leading off the upper living room that was perfect for a relaxing sun downer in the early evening. Oso, the Spanish Sheepdog and the cats were added company. The local wildlife is not shy. Vultures, white tailed eagles, swifts, lizards, bats (of all sizes), butterflies, beetles, crickets, sheep, frogs and much more can be seen and heard around the valley. We should have packed a guide book on the local fauna and flora as spent lots of time looking up various creatures and plants on the internet. The local municipal swimming pool is a must if you want to practice your lengths. With lots of beautifully kept grass areas and a stunning view, it's worth making an afternoon visit with a picnic. Just under 10 minutes walk away and ideal for all ages. There is a lovely learner pool for younger swimmers. At 1 euro 50 each it was amazing value! The very local bar/restaurant is friendly and has a good selection of tapas and main meals but the village also offers lots of places for a quick drink, light lunch or relaxed dinner. The little square has a butcher, baker, fruit and veg shop, cafe and ironmongers. Not always obvious as hidden behind door screens, just look for the locals leaving with their bulging shopping bags. Quite a few supermarkets around the village open Monday to Friday and half day Saturday. The first supermarket as you enter the village (near the Pharmacy and Dia) is open on a Sunday morning for a couple of hours. A car is essential and once we had mastered the lane up and down to the cottage, enjoyed trips out into the cork forests and white villages that are dotted around the area. A visit to Ronda for our anniversary was a wonderful treat. The prehistoric caves are worth visiting. Call and book in advance. Again, amazing value for nearly 2 hours underground on a guided tour of the cave paintings and rock formations. 30,000 years of human occupation still totally unspoilt by burger vans and souvenir shops. Wear shoes with a good grip as it can be slippery in places. All in all, a fantastic get away location with plenty to do in the surrounding area.

Serene, beautiful, unique house

Family of five, Inc three children under ten, had a brilliant time! House is spacious and well equipped, comfortable and really unique in style. Liked the fact there was no telly too. The pool and gardens were great, and the town is only a stroll away. Joanne welcomed us and we said goodbye at they end, otherwise we were left in peace but knew she was around if we needed, so all good. The big dog and little cat who came visiting together each night were great too! Saw eagles, horses and lots of other wildlife, all in all, it was great.
