CAVE HOUSE WITH TERRACE AND VIEWS OF THE ALHAMBRA IN SACROMONTE (GRANADA) — up to 4 people Some houses only make sense once you've climbed up to them. Cueva de Lindaraja sits in Sacromonte, the neighbourhood of caves carved into the rock that looks straight out at the Albaicín and the Alhambra, and which for centuries offered shelter from both the Andalusian summer heat and the cold that comes down from Sierra Nevada. This particular cave was fully renovated in 2018 and today it pairs that traditional architecture with a tidy, contemporary interior. It has 80 m2 spread over two floors and sleeps up to 4. INSIDE THE HOUSE. You walk into the living-dining room, with a table for group meals and a television. The kitchen is open-plan, connected to the living room, and comes equipped with an oven, ceramic hob, microwave, freezer and coffee machine, so you won't be missing anything for cooking. There are three bedrooms: two are doubles, each with a 135 cm bed, and the third has a folding bed. The bathroom, with a shower and hairdryer, completes the layout. The house has a washing machine, iron and free wifi, but no air conditioning or heating, which is common in cave houses thanks to their natural insulation. OUTSIDE. The house has two spacious south-facing terraces, with garden furniture and a barbecue, made for a leisurely breakfast or dinner with a view in the background: from here you can see the Alhambra and its gardens, one of the reasons this neighbourhood is so special. There's no pool. WHERE YOU ARE. You're right in the heart of Sacromonte, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in a quiet, sunny area with everything nearby: the grocery store and a restaurant are 500 m away, a bar just 100 m away, and the "Albayzín - Granada Centro" bus stop 50 m from the door. The Alhambra is 2 km away and Granada Cathedral 1 km, so you can walk to the historic centre. Reaching the house means climbing a stepped path of 20 steps, and driving here isn't recommended given the character of the neighbourhood. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. This house is built for those after an authentic stay in Granada, without a car and within walking distance of the main sights. With no climate control, it's worth keeping in mind if you're travelling in peak summer or winter. The stepped access is also something to consider if you're bringing heavy luggage or have reduced mobility.
