Enchanting, peaceful retreat
This little gem of a house is in a rural setting just outside the town, nestled in a private orange grove of about an acre. The majority of the restaurants in Rojales are in an area called Benijofar, a 4 minute drive away. There are also a number of restaurants & supermarkets nearby.
Unlike other villas we have stayed at, here you can always find a shaded area to get out of the heat if you want to. The first room you enter is a large living room with two comfy 3-seater sofas and a table which could easily seat 10. There is also a large fridge freezer in here.
From this room you access a gazebo with sofa & chairs and an overhead fan and light, perfect for sitting outside at night. It looks out onto the orange grove and a huge banana tree. It was reminiscent to me of being in Southeast Asia. Very tranquil.
The main structure of the house is accessed from inside where there is a well equipped kitchen area and another dining table as well as two more comfy sofas! Another large fridge freezer in here too. This area has windows but no direct sunlight, so it is really cool during the day.
The bathroom lets off this living area and, though compact, the shower cubicle is a good size at about 1.4mx70cm. The shower itself has both overhead and hand hose.
The owners are absolutely delightful & we had a lot of laughs with them overcoming the language barrier, thanks to Google Translate. All in all this cottage feels loved... and we loved it. We shall definitely be returning.
