NINA CELI, RURAL HOUSE WITH PRIVATE POOL IN ZAGRILLA ALTA (Priego de Córdoba, Córdoba) FOR 4 PEOPLE Some houses make sense the moment you arrive, and Nina Celi is one of them: a rural house built in 2007, on one floor, surrounded by countryside and silence, on the outskirts of Zagrilla Alta. The owner lives on the same estate, so you're never on your own if something comes up. The 85 m2 inside are laid out without complications, made for a family or two couples looking to switch off without giving up anything essential. Outside, the pool and the orange trees on the terrace take care of the rest. INSIDE THE HOUSE. Everything is on one floor, no stairs to deal with. The main bedroom has a double bed; the second has two single beds, with a bathroom adapted for people with reduced mobility. In total there are 2 full bathrooms with shower and hairdryer. The living-dining room has a TV with satellite channel, DVD and air conditioning, and opens directly onto the patio and pool. The kitchen, in the house's own style, comes equipped with oven, microwave, freezer, dishwasher and coffee maker, with a table for eating without having to leave it. For laundry you have a washing machine and iron, plus free wifi for anyone who needs to stay connected. OUTSIDE. The 50 m2 terrace has orange trees, so in season the scent becomes part of the scenery. There's garden furniture and a barbecue for eating outdoors, and a private pool measuring 10 x 5 metres and 150 cm deep, open all year round. The driveway is narrow and on a slope, so it's worth taking it slowly the first time, but once you're in you have your own garage with space for 2 cars. WHERE YOU ARE. You're in Zagrilla Alta, 8 km from Priego de Córdoba, in a quiet, sunny area away from the tourist crowds. The nearest restaurant is 300 metres away and the supermarket 8 km; the "Carcabuey" bus stop is 7 km away. The sea is 110 km away and Málaga's beach 120 km, so this is pure inland Spain, the kind you enjoy for the landscape and the pace, not for the shore. On the estate itself you have access to a winery where you can try wine and sheep's cheese in wine, typical of the area, and buy local products like organic honey or honey soap made by the owner. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The house has no lift, though since everything is on one floor this isn't an issue for getting around. The driveway is narrow with a steep slope, something to bear in mind if you're coming with a large vehicle. Parking is sorted with a garage on the estate for two cars. It's a house designed for families, with the added feature of an adapted bathroom in one of the bedrooms. If you're looking for inland Córdoba with your own pool, an orange grove and the chance to drop by the family winery, Nina Celi delivers exactly that, no more needed.
