Things to do House and garden area The house is located on a hill with breathtaking views in all directions. You have very nice view on the mountains Sierra del Rey and Alto de Gomer. Close to the house there are large terraces areas under roof. Here you can barbecue eat and chill. The terrace without roof is huge and you can always find sun or shadow. By the pool there are outside shower and a fountain. In the garden there are a lot of flowers and fruit trees as orange, lemon, kaki, plum, apple. The garden also has high numbers off olive trees, almond trees and wine stock. In the far end, in the middle off wine stock there are a boule court with very nice evening sun. In the up corner of the garden, we have the big old olive tree, under this you can find nice shade to read a book or just relax and enjoy the fantastic views.
