Overview
Casa Azul was lovingly restored in 2007 and is perfectly situated being close to all the monuments in the old Arab or Moorish quarter and yet just a stone's throw from the beautiful scenery of Los Tajos (the gorge). The house is perfect for a couple searching for a quiet escape - sometimes the only sounds to be heard are the bells of the sheep and goats as the local shepherd brings them past the end of the road on their way back from grazing in the gorge, and the delightful contrast of the chiming church bells. The accommodation, all on one floor, consists of a double bedroom with original beamed ceiling, modern bathroom with bath and shower, kitchen with electric hob, and a lounge-diner with sofa-bed, again with attractive original beams, with French doors leading out onto the secluded courtyard decorated with typical Andalusian tiles. Due to the traditional thick stone walls, Casa Azul provides a cool retreat from the baking midday sun, although in the winter months the wood-burner will keep the house cosy.The house is a 5 minute walk to the main town square where you will find many cafes, bars and restaurantsGranada, with its world-reknowned Alhambra and winter sports on the Sierra Nevada, is 45 minutes drive from the cottage, and the sea at the Costa Tropical is a scenic 60 minute drive away.The nearby lake offers swimming and water sports in a picturesque setting.The town, Alhama de Granada , has two thermal springs where the spa water can reach temperatures of 47 degrees. Lovely! "What a charming little place! Tastefully decorated and thoughtfully equipped. Fantastic walks, and some good sunning on the cafe terraces.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
