HOUSE WITH GARDEN AND FIREPLACE IN NIGÜELAS (GRANADA), FOR 6 PEOPLE Nigüelas is one of those villages where the traffic slows down on its own, winding through narrow lanes with the murmur of the Sierra Nevada in the background. La Casita de Elvira carries that name with genuine warmth, welcoming you with 100 square metres all on the ground floor, laid out so three couples or a family can stay without anyone having to climb stairs to sleep. The sea is 4 kilometres away, the snow of the Sierra Nevada is visible almost from the doorstep, and in between you have Granada and the Alpujarras to explore at your own pace. INSIDE THE HOUSE. All three bedrooms are on the ground floor: one with two single beds, another with a double, and a third again with two singles, so it works well for both children and adults. The house has six bathrooms —two with a bathtub and four with a shower, all with a hairdryer— which means no queuing in the mornings when there are six of you. The kitchen comes equipped with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, freezer and coffee machine, everything you need to cook without relying on the village shops. There's a fireplace for winter nights, plus television and internet in case you only want to switch off halfway. OUTSIDE. The garden is the spot for morning coffee or a long, lazy lunch, and the terrace adds one more corner to enjoy being outdoors without leaving the house. Parking is free and included, so you arrive by car and leave it right there, no need to hunt for a spot in the village. WHERE YOU ARE. You're in Nigüelas, a quiet village with calmed traffic, 4 kilometres from Motril beach. At 200 metres you'll find a shop, a bakery and an area with bars and restaurants, and there's a bus stop right in the village. From here, Granada city, the Alpujarras, Almuñécar, Salobreña, La Herradura or Nerja are all a reasonable drive away, and if you're into the mountains, the hiking trails of Sierra Tejeda and Sierra Almijara are close by. Sierra Nevada, for skiing, is also easy to reach. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The house sleeps up to 6 people across its 3 bedrooms and has 6 bathrooms. It has a washing machine and iron for longer stays, free wifi and parking included on the property. It's a house built for families, with plenty of room so no one's tripping over each other in the kitchen or the bathroom.
