Grande maison de village avec piscine, entourée par un mur, à la campagne

Very nice and fully equipped house in a beautiful garden.

A friend of mine invited me to spend a week in August with her and 4 of her girlfriends at Dos Hermanas. After seeing photos of the property I didn't have to think twice about it. I have to say, actually visiting Melegis and staying at Dos Hermanas exceeded my already high expectations. Not only is the property comfortable, spacious and well-equipped with all the conveniences you could need, the location is just beautiful. The mountainous scenery is truly sumptuous and there are plenty of walks you can go on to take it all in. Although not a driver myself, the heart of Granada was easily reachable by car should you wish to go sight-seeing; the Mercadona supermarket is closer still and even the local shop is well stocked with basics as well as fresh fruit and vegetables if you wish to spend more time simply wandering around the village, cooking and relaxing in the villa itself. I honestly can't recommend this place highly enough. Thank you so much for a truly wonderful holiday.

Our family of four (children aged 11 and 15) had a lovely time staying at Dos Hermanas this August. The house has a 'rustic' feel to it and was everything one would expect from a traditional Spanish village house. Lovely garden and swimming pool and the children adored feeding the cats that become your 'holiday pets' for the duration of your stay! Great base for exploring the area - only 30 minutes drive to Granada and La Alhambra (a 'must see'). There's a water park in Granada which the kids loved. We managed a couple of local walks in the hills despite the 30+ temperatures - great views. I had been worried it might be too hot at night but a combination of the traditional build of the house and the multiple fans supplied made for a good night's sleep. Would definitely recommend.

Reading the description of this property you picture a gem. A perfectly renovated typically Spanish hideaway. Which is exactly what it is. Having booked the Thursday EasyJet flights into Granada we had spend time exploring the city and the Alhambra and escaped on the Saturday to the tranquility of Melegis. We spent a lovely week relaxing in all the properties hideing holes and swimming in the salt water pool (perfect no chlorine = no prickly heat rashes.) The kitchens and bedrooms are well appointed with everything you need - everything has been thought of for you so relaxing was easy. There is a small local shop but you need a car to reach the supermarket 10 minutes drive away and I'd recommend the bread shop instead of the delivered bread. My husband and his friend had a great time trail running every morning exploring the rambling hills of the Siera Nevada but for the rest of us the short fruit lined walks to the castles described by Penelope proved enough exploring in the August heat. The whitewashed village itself is tranquil with narrow streets and it's old irrigation system. The restaurant has good food and lovely views. The house is a perfect escape from today's fast moving lifestyle. Dos Hermanas gets a big thumbs up from all of us.
