Photos and Description of the Peniscola vacation house rental
3 bedroom/bathroom town house sleeps 6, designer interiors, views of Peniscola

A designer furnished town house overlooking the Mediterranean, with shared swimming pool for 7 houses, ten minutes walk from a 10 km sandy beach and the old fishing village of Peniscola. The owner (interior designer) has furnished the house for her own use and thus equipped it to a very high standard. There are 3 bedrooms and 3 Bath/shower rooms. On three levels each with a large terrace all bedrooms and terraces have a view of the 12th Century castle (Featured in El Cid). There is a private driveway (1 car). Within a 10 minute drive of Sierra de Irta National Park, the coastline, one of the least populated in Spain, has many hidden coves. Valencia 70 minutes, Barcelona 2 hours by car or train. The competition Panoramica golf course is a 35 minute drive through spectacular countryside. This very Spanish resort is still relatively undiscovered.

The house looks directly on to the old town of Peniscola, a walled fishing village, a peninsula made famous by the

Papa Luna, the Knights Templars and the film El Cid, (filmed in the town in 1962) There are also views of the fishing port and of the Mediteranean, straight up to the Delta del Ebre (visible on clear days) This very traditional Spanish holiday town has remained very Spanish and is a popular holiday resort with the inhabitants of Zaragoza, Barcelona and Valencia, all within easy drving distance. There are very few properties with this view available for rental.

The historic village of Peniscola, made famous by the film El Cid is still a working fishing port with boats landing fish for auction on weekdays. Situated north of the Sierra de Irta National Park which is one of the most sparsely populated coastlines in Spain. Within day trip distance to Valencia and Barcelona the village has a 10 km sandy beach and crystal blue sea. There is a competition golf course 35 minutes drive. The Delta del Ebre is a 40 minute drive and a favourite with bird watchers, rare waders including flamingos can be spotted in the rice plantations. The town of Morella in the mountains is another favourite day trip. The house is walking distance to the town centre and the main beach.

Holiday house in Peniscola

4 of 5
Submitted: August 22, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We stayed 15 nights in this holiday house. All was as good as described in the internet pages. View from house to Peniscola old town and to the sea was great. Beaches and restaurants were in walking distance. Both cities, Barcelona and Valencia are with easy access by car, it is only 2 hours to drive from Barcelona airport.

Rooms and bathrooms were clean, kitchen was very well equiped for cooking. Washing machine worked perfectly.

This house is good for holiday for family up to 6 members, I can highly recommend. Owner was also very helpful and flexible.

We have spent a number of memorable breaks in Peniscola, the most notable being last September during the local fiesta. On each occasion we have rented the Ard Na Mar property which has arguably the best outlook on the Costa Del Azahar. The property is very spacious, and is on three levels, each with its own balcony overlooking the garden and pool.
The house is in a quiet area overlooking Peniscola, with wonderful views of the Castel de Papa Luna. Surrounded by quaint old towns, superb beaches and an abundance of excellent restaurants, we would think that for a carefree relaxing holiday you would struggle to find better accomodation.

WE LOVE IT.

I reside in Florida, USA. My husband and I have enjoyed other major cities in Europe but we wanted to find a nice vacation town to relax in without all the city stresses and expenses. After extensive searching on the internet we found this wonderful place which suited our needs. Beautiful house with very nice amenties, kitchen with everything you might need and a view that is out of this world. The house itself is beatuifully decorated and furnished. Families and couples looking for a relaxing vacation would have a wonderful time here and it is very affordable. Peniscola is such a charming place. Great places to eat, wonderful retail fish establishments and a few cocktails to enjoy the real Spanish culture. The beach is right there and so accessable.....wonderful!

Wonderful home and location

5 of 5

We are a party of 6 having just returned from a stay at this lovely home in Peniscola. The owner, Linda has been amazing since our first enquiry. Fast in responding and giving us lots of information prior to our stay. The house and facilities are as described - we were not dissapointed. The location is, we think, the best in Peniscola. Very typical Spain. Eating out was an experience, fantastic choice, good quality and not too expensive. The atmosphere in Peniscola (fiesta week), was unimaginable - really old spain - bull running, processions and fireworks - so enjoyable. We booked a car from the airport and the journey was easy - we were met by the Agent and shown to the house. We will be returning.
