Peaceful, well equipped family house in beautiful part of Spain

After taking a few years away from the rental market this lovely, tranquil home in south west Spain is back for rent from September 2018. You will notice some of the reviews provided are taken from the house's old guest book, although 2019 guests have now provided some lovely positive reviews too.

Set on 1.5 acres of secluded mature gardens, this rural rustic family house is ideal for families or couples wanting to escape and enjoy a fantastic part of Andalusia. Placed in the small hamlet of Najara, Casa Sylvia is an attractive rustic house with bags of charm.

This part of Spain is very unspoilt, with rich history and tradition, and due to the amazing Atlantic climate and stunning beaches, it is where many Spanish people come for their own summer holidays.

The owners have furnished the house well for comfortable family living and is very well equipped. It is well provided for guests with children - a cot and a high chair are available. The newly refurbished pool is set within a large patio near to the house; there are ample loungers, tables and chairs as well as a BBQ for outdoor living. Outside the mature gardens are well tended by local couple Diego and Milagros, who can provide you with seasonal produce from the grounds.

The house is situated 10 mins from the stunning hilltop fortress town, Vejer de la Frontera with restaurants, bars, shops and other amenities. Many beaches are easily accessible, including 20 mins to El Palmar beach. Other beautiful beaches nearby include CaƱos, Conil de la,Frontera, La Barrosa, Cape Trafalgar, Zahora.

The house has a guest information book, including a wealth of knowledge about the local area, supermarkets, restaurants, beaches, amenities, emergency contacts, etc.

4 bedrooms (two doubles, two twins), cot available.
2 bathrooms & 1 en suite
Well equipped kitchen with dishwasher
Washing machine and dryer

Winter break

Casa. Sylvia was exactly as the photos and was lovely and secluded, it has a huge secure garden and we could help ourselves to the fruit on the trees, which we all enjoyed. the house is very well equipped and has retained a lovely comfortable rustic feel. It was a bit unfortunate for us that this winter has been the wettest for a long time but we still managed to have days out and sit out on the terrace, all in all a very relaxing stay

Lovely house and garden

This is one of the best houses that we have rented in the past years. The house is beautiful and very comfortable, spacious and with all facilities, and the garden, barbecue and pool are great. The location is also very good, close to many areas and towns of interest. Special thanks to Diego and his wife for coming by and keeping the garden and orchard in shape, and for sharing in-house-grown vegetables and fruits with us. We absolutely recommend this place to anyone willing to visit the area, and we would love to come back.

fantastisch

We really enjoyed casa Sylvia. The layout of the house, the gardens, the location ... everything in one word "great". Diego as caretaker of the house and gardens was a great support. He continued to make sure that everything was to our liking. Oranges, mandarins, grapefruit .... the trees were full and we were allowed to pick what we wanted. We will definitely come back here in warmer periods.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful property

We had the most amazing stay in this beautiful villa. Jane was a great host and Diego the gardener was so friendly and welcoming, showing us the garden and giving us freshly picked fruit and veg. We hardly saw him but it was lovely when we did. The villa is beautiful with everything you need, the gardens are so peaceful to relax in with just the sounds of the countryside and the pool is a great size and although it was only April we were in it lots everyday. Although remote it is only 20min to the wonderful old town of Vejer with lots of restaurants, shops ans supermarkets and stunning beaches with restaurants just a bit further. There is a tiny shop 5min drive away in Cantarranas which sells most things and further supermarkets in Benalup. A great base to explore the area - we only wish we had been able to stay longer to explore more as well as have lazy days enjoying the villa. Weā€™ve already recommended it to loads of friends and hope to stay again.

Weihnachten in Casa Sylvia

Wir haben Weihnachten und Silvester in Casa Sylvia verbracht und hatten eine schƶne Zeit. Alles war wie beschrieben und das Highlight war auch fĆ¼r uns die kleine Plantage. Soviel frischen Orangensaft mit Grapefruit haben wir wohl noch nie getrunken. Das GrundstĆ¼ck ist wirklich groƟzĆ¼gig und unsere Kinder konnten das ganze Arial zum Spielen nutzen. Gerne hƤtten wir auch den Pool genutzt, aber es ist verstƤndlich, dass dieser im Winter geschlossen ist. Diego mĆ¼ssen wir unbedingt auch positiv erwƤhnen. Wir mussten die ganze Zeit heizen und er hat uns unermĆ¼dlich Holz und AnzĆ¼ndmaterial herbei geschafft und war auch gerne mal fĆ¼r einen kleinen Plausch zu haben (so gut es eben mit nur kleinen Spanischkenntnissen unsererseits geht). Vielen Dank fĆ¼r den schƶnen Aufenthalt!

Hidden paradise / Ein Paradies!

Wunderbar rustikales Haus mit viel Platz fĆ¼r die Familie, gute Betten, gute Ausstattung, traumhafter riesiger Garten und top gepflegter sehr groƟer Pool. 3 Terassen, toller Grill, Dach begehbar. Sehr ruhig in der Natur gelegen, das Pferdeschnauben, der nƤchtliche Uhu und der morgendliche Hahn untermalen das aufs schƶnste. Die Lage ist ideal fĆ¼r Touren und einen schnellen Dip ins Meer, die nƤchsten StrƤnde sind allesamt extrem toll, mit schƶnen Strandbars und weiƟem Sand. Diego ist ein wahnsinnig freundlicher, hilfsbereiter Mensch und Jane stand per Mail jederzeit zur VerfĆ¼gung. Wir waren hier sehr glĆ¼cklich, vielen Dank! Matthias, Barbara, Charlotte, Maximilian.

A perfect holiday home in an amazing location

Casa Sylvia is the most perfect holiday home for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. Beautiful gardens, a perfect pool and a really homey feel to the whole place. Super close to Vejer and really easy to get to other places such as Cadiz and Seville. Brilliant communication from start to finish and such an amazing helpful house and area guide in the house, we read it everyday and it helped us plan our weeks out. Everything was perfect!

Wunderschƶnes Haus mit allem was man fĆ¼r einen perfekten Urlaub braucht !

Wir waren 10 Tage im Casa Sylvia und haben den Aufenthalt dort sehr genossen. Das Haus ist mehr als ausreichend ausgestattet und die Lage perfekt. Zum Meer sind es ca 20 Min, nach CĆ”diz 1 Std, Vejer 15 Min. Highlight ist definitiv der groƟe Pool. FĆ¼r uns was es der beste Urlaub mit der richtigen Mischung aus Ruhe und Entspannung im Haus und Action am Meer. Oropax sollte man aber unbedingt mitbringen, die HƤhne und Hunde in der Nachbarschaft sind die ganze Nacht aktiv.
