| A traditional, restored cottage-type Andalucian village house in a beautiful small village, Polopos, 10 km from the sea, on the southern slopes of the Alpujarras. Polopos is at an altitude of 780 m, and so has a wonderful view across the Mediterranean. On a clear day one can see as far as Africa. The atmosphere of the village is very peaceful, calm and quiet. It's wonderful for walking.
