Extraordinaria casa rural con enormes jardines cerca de la playa

Very helpful staff. Good to have a real person at the other end of the telephone. Graham our host was excellent and very helpful and the house was well equipped, clean and fulfilled all our requirements."

Fabulous and well equipped Villa. Graham the Caretaker is very helpful. Pool and grounds are stunning. I’m sure we will be back!"

Great property - photos do not do it justice! Villa is enormous and well equipped. The grounds are amazing. Graham is very helpful and happy to assist. Pablo was great! Lots of adventures looking for frogs in the many ponds, playing volleyball and football. Relaxing in the hot tub and sauna. We will definitely return!"

Plenty of space, very clean and private. A perfect place for a 3 generation family holiday. Graham made us very welcome answering any questions we had. We would go back."

We loved the location of the villa, but we thought the condition of the track from the road to the villa itself was very poor in places and not what we expected. The gardens surrounding the villa are exceptional and beautifully kept by the gardener and Graham - who we found to be very helpful at all times. We felt the villa is in need of a refurb and the equipment in it needs updating and improving. Specifically, the pool has a number of tiles missing, the bar area table is in poor condition, with warped tops and the the chair cushions need replacing. Inside the villa the bannister to the lower floor is insecure. The kitchen needs to be updated and considering the number of people the villa can accommodate a double oven and a double ‘American sized’ fridge are essential. General equipment in the kitchen also needs to be improved - the coffee percolator/machine is nowhere near big enough. Many of the cups and bases of wine glasses were chipped and need replacing. The bath in the main downstairs bathroom was chipped in several places, which was disappointing. Finally the towels that were supplied for the bathrooms were very hard and unpleasant to use. As a family we have significant experience in hiring large sized properties in Spain (in particular on the Costa del Sol) and the South of France and these comments are based on these experiences and are positively made with the hope that they help the property owner understand a clients perspective. Should the refurbishments/upgrades be made then we would no hesitation in returning to Tierra Buena, which overall we enjoyed."

We thought the setting and gardens at the villa were spectacular and found the huge amount of air conditioned indoor space during the hottest time of the day very welcome. The caretaker was lovely and responded promptly and helpfully to all requests for help. The villa was clean and airy, with plenty of places for our party of 10 to gather together or find a bit of peace alone at times. The only improvements which we could suggest would be that the electrics (such as the pool heating) be checked in advance before guests arrival, and in the quality of the kitchen equipment provided. Having said that we had a really lovely holiday."

El Anfitrión muy bien, muy atento y servicial. La casa estaba también muy bien, quizás los sofás del salón necesitan una mejora. todo Muy limpio. Echamos de menos manteles en la casa."

Todo muy bien. Nuestro contacto allí perfecto para todo. Volveremos"

Thank you for recommending this splendid villa to us. We would go back any time."

The place is lovely, the only downsides are that there is very little lighting in the BBQ area so can't be used a night. The noise the beds make, particularly the large double bed on the ground floor and the fact there is no toilet in the pool area."

Thanks Graham for the most beautiful week at Casares... Perfect location for all ages. Extremely clean, nice Jacuzzi Saunna, and large Swimming pool. Huge grass lawns and the river with water lilies, snakes, frogs and turtles. Not to mention Misty and Maue the children loved it."

Amazing location, amazing property and grounds, and we were well looked after by Graham. Thank you"

Great villa - especially the gardens and heated pool which kept the kids happy all day. Lots of space and lovely peaceful location. Graham made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you."

The property and the surroundings were even more impressive than we expected from the photos. Our host Graham took care of any request within five minutes. The kids had the time of their life. Rustical Travel is without doubt the best counterpart I have ever dealt with online. Every contact I made was replied within a couple of hours."

We were a party of ten - four children aged 5-10 and 6 adults. this is a holiday we do every year at autumn half term and we have been to many villas from Turkey to the Canary Islands but i think this was the favourite. it was the first time we have not chosen a "beach" villa and as the weather at this time of year can be unpredictable it was an excellent choice. The heated pool kept the childen entertained all day and the huge gardens were perfect for many games, hide and seek, a treasure hunt and relay races. we visited the beach once and were disappointed. End of season, no buckets and spades and just rather dreary although Estepona market kept us entertained on the wettest day. in the evening there were wonderful walks in the hillside and a day spent driving up to Ronda was a highlight. We didnt eat out as much as usual but were perfectlyhappy to eat in the wonderfully well equipped living area with 9 sofas - almost one each ! the villa was comfortable without being precious and Graham was always on hand to help out when we needed him. The sunbathing turtles were a memorable wildlife experience along with the vultures circling."

RD69 is a superb Villa and we thoroughly enjoyed using it as did the rest of my family. Graham the caretaker was amazingly helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The gardens are fabulous kept beautifully. Just some minor issues/suggestions: The shared bathroom shower curtain was not very effective and showering was difficult without getting water everywhere We thought maybe a small stock of nice plastic wine glasses to use by the pool for safety reasons. We would thoroughly recommend this Villa for large groups and especially families/"

The villa was beautiful and was just as it looked in the photos if not better. The grounds were lovely and the setting was very peaceful with stunning scenery. We all loved our time there and a few in our group including ourselves are keen to go back. Graham, the caretaker of the property was very helpful and always on hand if required without being obtrusive. The only points that may affect other holidaymakers from not choosing this property that we can think of are: It may not suit people with mobility problems as there are several different levels all of which have to be accessed via stairs People with dogs or who are scared of dogs may be put off by the guard dogs but we had no problem at all with them and Graham told us about them straight away and reassured us that they were in a secure area Some people might find the road to the property a bit nerve wracking but once you have done it once it is fine. Given the property's location a car is a must. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our time there and would recommend it to others."

Had a great time thanks. A beautiful property and extremely well organised on your part. The only slight criticism is maybe the hard mattress's but maybe that's subjective? We were a small group but could not see how you could cook for large numbers with a normal domestic size cooker. Many thanks Gary"

We had an amazing holiday! Our villa and its setting was beautiful. The pre-holiday information from Rustical Travel was great and gave exact instructions of how to get to the property and to arrange to meet the caretaker. The villa itself was huge and well suited to a group holiday. The bedrooms are nicely spaced out and the living area was great for relaxing and chatting. We really took advantage of the pool and the hot tub which provided hours of entertainment. Graham the caretaker met us when we arrived and was on hand throughout our stay when we needed him. We had a couple of comments for the villas owners - the bathrooms lack hooks to hang up towels to dry, the kitchen could do with some better knives and we didn't like the plastic plants and flowers - the inside of the villa is lovely but spoilt by the cheap looking plants. We would certainly use Rustical Travel again and might even go back to the villa sometime."

We had a great time at the Villa near Casares. A beautiful peaceful setting. Ideal for an extended family group - with a massive living area - and vast beautifully kept grounds. We appreciated the friendly welcome and help from laid back Aussie Graham. Good restaurants just up the road. The coast and Ronda within easy reach. Plus a choice of airports. Recommended as a great place for a large family get together."
