This is a wonderful place; surrounded by mountains, beautiful gardens, secluded pool, nearest town is a few minutes drive & has wonderful restaurants, a boho feel, great shops.
Janet was a warm and friendly host. There is a lot of attention to detail in and around the casita which was very much appreciated. The gardens are beautiful and very well kept.
It is an amazing renovation when you see the before & after photos. All in all, it is a peaceful haven of beauty and seclusion.
Stayed as a couple for eleven nights in June 2023. The highlight is the beautiful garden and tranquil pool area. The finca itself is charming, very well equipped and the host Janet was always on hand to resolved anything that may crop up or offer recommendations (whilst absolutely maintaining privacy.)
Would highly recommend.
We had a lovely quiet week in the mountains. A real treat to do not much, and what a setting in which to do it!
We made the effort to go pony trekking one day but we otherwise content to just relax. And if that is what you need then this is the place. Comfortable, clean, and with everything you need.
Thank you Janet and her family.
Wow! What a beautiful and idyllic property with the most amazing tropical gardens and stunning pool. It is the perfect place to relax and fully unwind. A true paradise!
The house is extremely well equipped and spotlessly clean. There was even UK TV.
Janet and Katie live next door are excellent hosts, always available for advice on what to do/where to go but at the same time giving us complete privacy. We are missing
Casa de la Era already but looking forward to return visit, hopefully soon.
Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday
We stayed for one week in mid October. The grounds are their own little garden of eden, beautifully designed and well kept, it's always nice to have some grassy areas for kids to play on. The pool is a good size and is gated off for safety. The house is very nice and bright with various glass bricks to let the sun in. Kitchen wise there is everything you could ever need. The bedrooms were all super clean and well presented. The location was easy to find, with detailed directions provided, and shops were very local just five minutes away and there was even one (the bakery) open on Sunday, which was handy for our arrival day. Janet was very welcoming and provided information on local attractions to visit. Overall a well recommended idyllic spot and we hope to visit again in the future.
We loved spending time here. It was peaceful and oh-so-beautiful! The whole property was immaculate and ultra clean and had everything we needed. If anything I wouldâve loved a dishwasher, mostly because teenagers donât really do washing up...
The gardens are glorious and there are spaces for everyone, we all found our favourite spot to hang out.
The pool is lovely and fresh and surrounded by greenery and thereâs shade too if you need it. And the palm tree is fabulous!
Thank you so much for sharing your property Janet. A little piece of heaven. Weâve recommended it already to a few friends.
We spent a wonderful 2 weeks at Casa De La Era at the end of July 2023.
The location is absolutely stunning being surrounded by mountains and the property itself is spotless.
However, the real gem is the gardens and the pool, the photo's of which really don't do it justice. The gardens have a huge variety of flowers and there are numerous spots to sit in the shade and contemplate life ! The pool area as well is wonderful and very welcome when the heat becomes too much.
It's also a great place from which to explore the area, Orgiva itself has plenty to offer and then there's the white villages up in the mountains which are certainly worth visiting and exploring.
We also drove down to the coast (about an hour away) and spent time swimming in the sea and snorkelling at Nerja which is also a great place to spend time.
We won't hesitate to return and look forward to it !
Thanks to Janet, Katie, Oscar and Duke for a fantastic holiday x
Es war ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt. Sehr authentisches, gemĂŒtliches Haus mit einem prachtvollen Garten mit Organgen- und ZitronenbĂ€umen und vielen farbenfrohen Pflanzen und Blumen. Eine kleine Oase der Ruhe mit schönem Ausblick auf die zerklĂŒffteten Alpujarras, nur wenig auĂerhalb Orgivas. Janet ist eine perfekte Gastgeberin, hilfsbereit und freundlich. Danke!
The Cassita has everything you need and is quite comfortable but the real treat is the beautiful garden and pool area. Lots of different seating areas each providing a different view and all surrounded by the mountains.
Janet, the owner lives next door and was helpful and it was a nice touch to find a bottle of wine and some olives waiting for us.
My wife and I stayed here for a week in Sept 2021, we where looking for a peaceful relaxing get away and that's what we had. Casa de la era is well positioned far enough away from town for the tranquil setting we were after but close enough to pop in to pick up some groceries or for dinner. The casa has everything you'd expect a well equipped kitchen, bbq and even English TV channels. The pool area is beautiful and great for a relaxing end to a day sightseeing. There is plenty to do in the area from visiting the beautiful white towns and also close enough to pop down to the beach. Janet was lovely and the perfect host, living next door we knew she was on hand if we needed anything but at the same time gave us complete privacy. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Casa de la Era and hope to return in the future.
Nos hemos alojado una familia con dos niños de 3 y 6 años y la estancia ha sido magnĂfica, una casa cĂłmoda, con grandes jardines y espacios para jugar los niños y para relajarse, comer, hacer barbacoa en el exterior. La piscina, una maravilla!
Y Janet, la propietaria, encantadora! đ
Sin duda, recomendable!
family journey with 2 young kids and one baby during summer:
Gardens and swimming pool are just amazing! The house and surrounding are very clean. The owner lives next to the house with discretion and very serviable.
The nights were very hot and unfortunately no air conditioning: some difficulty to sleep.
This journey will be better with bigger fridge and dishwasher.

Les points forts : Emplacement et exactitude de lâannonce
Les points faibles : Communication
Precioso sitio
Disfrutamos muchĂsimo el exterior de la casa: la piscina, el jardĂn, el porche en donde hicimos todas las comidas del dĂa. Tranquilidad absoluta.
Estuvimos 10 dĂas en el mes de julio con dos niños de 10 y 11 años. La casa es pequeña pero acogedora y funcional y, para el verano, la verdad es que se agradece, porque te invita a utilizar las zonas exteriores que desde luego son la joya de la casa: un par de praderitas ideales para echar unas patadas al balĂłn, una piscina siempre bien cuidada y limpia y un porche con sombra por las tardes ideal para comer, leer o ver la tv. La propietaria es encantadora y sĂșper atenta; nos encantaron las notas que nos dejaron explicando las cosas importantes de la casa, pueblo etc.
Ărgiva que estĂĄ a dos minutos en coche de la casa tiene de todo, restaurantes interesantes, supermercados, tiendas de frutas y verduras, pastelerĂas.
En definitiva un lugar muy recomendable para descansar y como punto de partida para realizar actividades interesantes.
Just as weâd hoped... quiet neighbourhood with beautiful views from all angles. Spent many happy hours around the fabulous pool. Also found some wonderful beaches, mountaintop horse riding and great aqua park. Would highly recommend.
We had a great time staying at Casa de la Era. Itâs a lovely place to relax and unwind. Beautiful gardens, refreshing pool and impressive mountain views. The house has been beautifully decorated with clever pebble and beam details. We enjoyed sitting under the leafy terrace having our meals and playing cards.
We spent a day in Granada and another touring the Alpujarran villages as well as trips into Ărgiva for food supplies and meals out.
My daughters (11 and 13 years) spent most of their time in the pool and enjoyed visits from Tilly the cat and the geckos.
We feel very lucky to have spent our holiday here this year and thoroughly recommend.
Perfect place to chill out away from the beach. Awesome scenery in the mountains, and the owners have created a lush garden and cosy casa. It was exactly what we needed.
The property is ideal for a relaxing stay although Granada, the coast and plentiful walks are within an hour's drive. Orgiva is only 5 minutes away with a good choice of bars and restaurants. The casita is equipped with everything you might want - toys, books, DVDs, CDs, British TV, breakfast supplies on arrival - and is clean and comfortable. The large gardens and pool area are well-kept, the latter being unheated although we took several dips in early October. Janet, the friendly owner, lives next door and is happy to help. I would highly recommend this property.

A lovely oasis for calm and relaxation
A lovely place to stay to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The villa is small but perfectly formed. Very clean and with all the amenities you would need. The owners live next door so on hand if you need them but not intrusive. The gardens are truly delightful and the pool - a little oasis with the most stunning date palm and gnarled ancient olive trees providing shade. There is a little noise from the road but nothing you really notice. Trips to Granada and Seville easily accessible by car and well worth the effort. We had a delightful stay and despite some stormy weather days enjoyed ourselves, feeling refreshed for the trip home.
