Photos and Description of the Canar vacation apartment rental
2 & 3 bedroom apartments, each with 1 or 2 bathrooms, each sleeping up to 4/5

Casa Rif is a large village house at the front of Canar, offering 3 self-contained, well-equipped apartments. All have south-facing balconies. The penthouse apartment (La Estella) has a very large roof terrace with a heated jacuzzi/spa, BBQ and quality lounge and dining furniture. Casa Rif can be rented as a whole, or each apartment individually. Canar is uniquely situated in the High Alpujarra - nearest village to Orgiva with all its amenities only 10 mins' drive away, yet also, at an altitude of 1150m , the house boasts open views that are truly unrivalled in the region to which no words/pictures could ever do justice. On a clear day, the Rif Mountains of Morocco can be seen. Canar is totally unspoiled, with the famous GR7 walking route passing through the village, making it accessible to constantly changing scenery. Whether you're interested in walking, cycling, bird watching, riding, exploring further afield, or just relaxing in a totally tranquil environment, you can do as much or as little as you want.

Additional facilities:: All apartments have satellite TV. A selection of DVDs is also available. Canar has a small grocer, bank, pharmacy, 3 bars and a new restaurant. Swimming is available in Orgiva for a small charge.

Further afield:: Golf - nearest golf course is at Salobrena (40 mins). Skiing - the World Championship resort of Pradollano in the Sierra Nevada is 1hr 15 mins away. Paragliding, windsurfing and diving are all available at nearby Salobrena and Almunecar.

In summary:: La Alpujarra presents a truly unique holiday destination - steeped in history and tradition with a wealth of activities available within easy reach, not to mention the extraordinary abundance of wildlife that calls it home. All this combined with the warm climate everyone associates with southern Spain. Further, we fully appreciate that for most people, holidays are the most important times of the year, and we will therefore do our utmost to accommodate any particular needs or requirements you may have in order to have a truly memorable holiday.

'Another of our meals is cooked and served by Robin and Steve, whose tastefully furnished apartment in Canar provides our accommodation for two nights. The group was still raving about their roast vegetable paella and strawberries dipped in chocolate at the end of the week.' Barbara Lamplugh, LIVING SPAIN Magazine.

'Thank you for a lovely week in Canar, your hard work and commitment to us was impressive and we have nothing but praise for you both.' M & J Madden, Surrey

'... a wonderful 2 weeks. You have a great place here.' G Van Dyk Watson, London

'Thank you both for a wonderful stay, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the much-needed break. Best of luck for the future, we have already recommended you to family and imagine we will be back ourselves as soon as time allows!' Dr R Ewbank, Glasgow.

Mountain Village Experience

La Estrella is in the remote village of Canar, in the heart of the Sierra Nevada uplands: a hill-walker's delight. The south-facing, sunny roof terrace has wonderful views down to the valley below and more mountains facing. In the hot-tub you can enjoy the stars and the night-sounds of nature and village life, whilst easing the limbs from the day's trek. The property is clean, has just about enough space for 4 people and is confortable, night and day. The kitchen is compact, works well, though perhaps if a little under-equipped ( as seems to be the tradition of holiday appartments in the area). there is a slight assumption you would eat the main meals in restaurants - which is entirely possible with the selection recommended by Robin. The photos of the different rooms and spaces in the property are very seductive - but they do represent the reality. Charming & attentive owner to complete the experience.

We were looking for peace and quitet with a nice bit of sunshine and this place was perfect. From the moment we booked we were shown very attentive personal service. the property was very clean and spacious, had everything that you need to be completely self sufficient and the hot tub is certainly a bonus! This place is great for walkers wanting to adventure in the Alpujarras or like us to get away from the stress of everyday life. Turn your phone off at the entrance to the village and unwind in the peace and tranquility. Fantastic!

We have just returned from a fantastic week's holiday in Canar. We happened to pick the liveliest week of the year being the Fiesta for Saint Ana. The locals certainly know how to celebrate with music, fireworks , the brass band and lots of singing. Robin made us feel very welcome on arrival and explained what to see, expect and where to find things. The apartment is beautifully clean and has everything you could ask for.The views are breathtaking, the village people lovely, especially the lady in the local shop. It's not a holiday for the faint hearted. You certainly need to be able to speak some Spanish. We would certainly consider returning in a different season to compare our original experience.

We had a fantastic week. Canar is authentic Spain and we certainly got a chance to put our ropey Spanish into practice. The area is beautiful and great for walking and good food.

La Estrella is a wonderful place to stay and relax - particularly with the roof terrace and hot tub. The house is really well equipped and has maps and walking books which we made good use of.

Robin was very welcoming and helpful - giving lots of local info and tips.

Overall we'd highly recommend this charming property and village for a great getaway.
