CASARA CINCO, HOUSE

Casara: The sound of the surf, whispering wind moving shimmering leaves, the scent of wild flowers and herbs stimulated all my senses on arrival. What good therapy for stress, sit here and just take it all in and your troubles will just float away in this perfect location. The three holiday homes are set in an old Moorish style building that nestles in pastures between mature trees only 170 metres from the beach.

Access to the holiday home is via a private drive lined with palm trees of some 500m adding to the exclusivity.

You have private access to the beach via a short track that passes beautiful horses and the odd chicken and turkey. The Beach is wide and sandy with a few rock pool areas to explore and washed clean twice a day by a pristine deep blue Atlantic ocean.

Look out to sea and you will notice a peninsular with a light house at the end. This is Cape Trafalgar where on October 21st, 1805 Nelson and the British navy defeated the combined fleets of Spain and France

Location: This definitely is a piece of secret Spain. for those who want get away from the hustle and bustle of the big resorts. You may be tempted to stock up with food, hide your car keys and spend all your time relaxing within the environs of your holiday home, however there is so much to do and see. You can be in the heart of old Cadiz in 40 min or sitting in a bar on top of the world in one of the famous 'Pueblos Blancos' white hill towns, sipping the famous local sherries. There are three in close proximity, Medina Sidonia, famous for the Duke of Medina who led the Armada against England. Arcos de la Frontera, where they make tasty sweets and cakes. Vejer, where you can see the Atlas mountains of Africa across the sea.

Activities: If you ever get tired of sight seeing you can enjoy activities like golf, sailing, surfing, fishing and horse riding to name just a few of the pursuits open to those of an energetic nature. Of course whilst you decide how to spend your days, you can have a dip in the pool, followed up by a barbecue using the traditional stone charcoal oven, and sip your cool sangria under a shaded area and perhaps that this is all you want to do.
