ARDALES NATURAL PARK & EL CHORRO GORGE A 35-minutes drive from the Cottage
Imagine three stunningly beautiful turquoise coloured lakes bordered by pine forests. A tranquil retreat where you can swim or fish, or picnic on the lakeshore. Hardly sounds like a typical Andalucian scene, does it! But west of Alora that is what you will find. Malaga's "Lake District" is in fact three artificial lakes created by a dam built across the dramatic 200 m. high Guadalhorce river gorge, known as the Garganta del Chorro. Watch out for the eagles, which continually circle around the sheer cliffs.
Guest commnets Jan & Joe
"Thank you for our stay at La Cuadra, it was all that you promised – beautiful. You have the cottage just perfect, really home from home. Inside the finca was perfection and the welcome pack really generous. Outside, the pool was wonderful and the views - what can we say, magnificent! We really didn’t want to come back home and have raved on about it - and your hospitality - ever since; we have certainly given it the thumbs up to all our friends (We're sure they really fed up with viewing all the photos!) Hope to see you soon" Mewett family
Dear Joe and Jan
We just wanted to write and say what a lovely place Finca La Cuadra is, and what a wonderful week we had there. As we told you, we have rented many villas in Spain over the years, but without doubt La Cuadra is the nicest one we have ever stayed in. Not only is it a beautiful villa, but the pool, gardens and views are all perfect. And we needn't have brought half the things we did with us, it was all provided! You were incredibly generous with the welcome pack - it was enough to last us the whole week! We really can't find fault with the place, and you were both very kind and helpful. We will often imagine ourselves sitting by the pool looking out over the mountains, as we drag ourselves into work in the rush-hour. We look forward to our next visit! Debbie and Glenn Marshall
Hi Ruth
Just wanted to let you know that I was very pleased with my holiday in Finca La Cuadra. All our needs had been anticipated by Joe and Jan, who were very helpful and friendly. For my first "villa holiday" the whole experience was wonderful. Points worth mentioning - ideal swimming pool, romantic and private location, beautiful modern kitchen fully stocked with crockery, great choice of places to sit outside, rural yet handy for road network. I will definitely have to go back as the finca was so nice that it was hard to go out for the day! Many thanks for all your help, and hope to be in touch again. Sasha, Scotland
Dear Joe and Jan We would like to say how much you made us feel at home. We love the well equipped Finca La Cuadra in its ideal surrounding and the exceptional welcome pack. Very convenient for visiting places either by car or walk (with a good map you would find many tracks to walk on). One of the memorable days we had with you was when you, going to a unique Spanish restaurant and the journey through to El Chorro reservoir and caminito Gorge. It has been a super four weeks and we would love to come back some time. Maureen and Tom Whittam
COIN -
Situated in the valley of the Rio Grande in the province of Malaga, Coín is one of the most up and coming villages on the Costa del Sol.
This once small village is expanding at an amazing pace and is fast becoming a place of residence for many foreigners.
There are about 20,000 registered residents.
Coin is located about 30 minutes drive from Fuengirola and 20 minutes from Mijas.
Coín also houses and important ceramics factory, located on the main road from Fuengirola and a working film studio that was once the set for the TV series‘El dorado’. The studio is located on the outskirts of Coín, alongside the main highway to Marbella. The studio is also used as a hotel and restaurant
The centre of Coín has a wonderful plaza where the old Town Hall is located and local residents sit and while away the hours.
The new Town Hall is located in another new plaza with an underground car park, fountains, gardens and several fine bars.
The small, narrow streets are lined with family owned shops. A new commercial centre, ‘La Trocha’ has been built on the outskirts of town.
It is located on the road to Cartama and contains numerous department stores including Dunnes, various food outlets including Burger King and a multi-screen cinema.
Coín offers a multitude of housing including very reasonably priced townhouses and apartments, several developments of new apartments in the centre and residential estates on the outskirts of the village.
Prices are lower than the coastal areas and the living is somewhat slower paced.
Coín has a wealth of important architecture including several churches. The Church of san Andres is also known as the Caridad and forms part of the hospital. The Church of San Juan is one of the largest churches in the province and has been officially declared a national monument.
