    Friendly, helpful host; great breakfast (minor point - the coffee could have been stronger); very comfortable and clean room. Canillas is small but has a few bars and restaurants and the people are very friendly.

Company information

Following renovations we have created a house that is both light and airy in the summer and cosy and warm in the cooler months. All exterior windows and doors are triple glazed so even during the fiestas the interior of the house is calm and peaceful. It has plenty of space to relax after a busy day hiking or at the village pool or beach. A wonderful base for an overnight or longer stay. Después de las renovaciones, hemos creado una casa que es luminosa y aireada en verano y acogedora y cálida en los meses más fríos. Todas las ventanas y puertas exteriores tienen triple acristalamiento, por lo que incluso durante las fiestas el interior de la casa es tranquilo y pacífico. Tiene mucho espacio para relajarse después de un ajetreado día de caminatas o en la piscina o la playa del pueblo. Una base maravillosa para pasar la noche o una estancia más larga.
