La Matanza de Acentejo Vacation Rental house

Location: High and steep rocky cliffs form the north coast of Tenerife. Close to a coastal headland lies the pretty and tidily-kept town of El Sauzal, with a lovely “plaza” and many floral decorations. High up on the cliffs there are more attractive miradores (panoramic look-out points). The wine museum in El Sauzal is of special note. The building itself, a former 17th century farmhouse, is worth a visit. Inside you’ll find an old grape press. There are separate exhibition rooms which tell the story of the history of wine production in Tenerife. The holiday house is situated in Las Naranjas, which belongs to La Matanza and El Sauzal. Between the two towns, below the motorway, there are residential areas known Primavera, Puertito, Las Naranjas, and Puntillo del Sol. Las Naranjas and the other three areas lie in the “sun-belt of the North”. This is the region of the north coast of Tenerife with the most hours of sunshine per year.

Location: La Matanza is a little larger and animated town with numerous shopping attractions, a large supermarket, cafés, bars, restaurants, and a large old church. Above the town there is an ancient wooded area with hours of walking trails through magnificent pine and eucalyptus forests. On the weekends, there is the opportunity to shop for fresh fruit, vegetables, wines, cakes and other home-made farm produce at the Farmers´ Market of La Matanza.
