SASCHA (with private pool, Peñíscola, Costa de Azahar) for 4 people You arrive along a stepped path, twenty steps climbing up to the house, and from there you can already see the sea and the silhouette of Peñíscola in the distance. "Sascha" is a 60 m2 house made for unplugging without giving anything up: two bedrooms on the ground floor, your own pool and a quiet setting in the Arco Iris neighbourhood, on the outskirts of town. Ideal if you're looking for a comfortable base for two couples or a family of four, at just the right distance between the beach and the calm of the hills. INSIDE THE HOUSE. The living-dining room brings the life of the house together around the table, with satellite TV (channels from Spain, France and Andorra) and heating. The open kitchen, connected to the living room, comes equipped with an oven, microwave, freezer, dishwasher and coffee machine, so nothing's missing for cooking at your own pace. The two double bedrooms are on the ground floor, and the single bathroom has a shower. The whole house has air conditioning, a washing machine, TV, DVD and free wifi. OUTSIDE. The plot is fenced and has two terraces, partially covered, with garden furniture and a barbecue for eating outdoors. The private pool measures 7 x 3 metres, with a depth of between 150 and 180 cm, and is open from mid-May to mid-October. From the house you can see the sea and the town of Peñíscola, a detail you'll especially enjoy at sunset, sitting on the terrace with a cold beer. WHERE YOU ARE. You're 2 km from the centre of Peñíscola, in a slightly elevated, quiet area, away from the bustle of the old town but close to everything you need. The sea is 2.5 km away and the sandy beach 2.7 km. The nearest supermarket is 1.5 km away, the "Plaza de la Constitución" bus stop 2.5 km, and Benicarló-Peñíscola train station 9 km. If you enjoy walking, the Sierra de Irta Natural Park is 5 km away, and for a full day trip, the Ebro Delta is 40 km and Port Aventura 100 km. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The house is non-smoking and has free parking right next to it. Keep in mind that part of the house stays closed and unused, so the living space is the one described here. Access is via a stepped path with twenty steps, worth considering if you're travelling with small children, older people or a lot of luggage.
