Property Rental Summary

Property Description

PLEASE NOTE THE HOUSE HAS NOW BEEN FULLY BOOKED FROM APRIL 2010 TO 11TH FEBRUARY 2011. I WONDER WHY.

For your own "peace of mind" please see my feedback further down the page, from over 20 previous guests because they tell you what it's really like.

WITH AN AVERAGE OF OVER 300 DAYS OF SUNSHINE A YEAR AND A WONDERFULLY MILD CLIMATE IN OUR WINTER, MAKES THIS PART OF SPAIN AN IDEAL GETAWAY THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE YEAR.

The house is in a quiet road of Villas and Townhouses with parking for one car under the pergola covered drive in the front garden. The fairway and 2 FREE tennis courts are just 50 metres away

Please note that this is a house AND NOT AN APARTMENT IN A BLOCK, WITH LIFTS, UNDERGROUND PARKING WITH A SMALLER TERRACE OR BALCONY. 

Furnished to the very highest of standards, this is more a home than the normal holiday let.

Fully centrally heated for those chilly winter nights with air conditioning in the lounge and powerful ceiling fans in both bedrooms.

You will see from my feedback, WHICH CAN BE VERIFIED, that the house and its position is second to none.

For many more pictures etc, just click the link in the "contact owners" section and it takes you directly to my personal site.

The very large "PRIVATE" upstairs terrace, has a quality table and 4 chairs, a BBQ, 4 loungers and potted plants. Access is via the landing or the sliding patio doors from the delightful bedroom with its kingsize bed.

The downstairs patio has a table and 4 chairs.

Both overlook the garden and pool and have outside lighting, for dining al fresco.

All the furniture is quality solid wood and leather. A 32" LCD Flat Screen television WITH BRITISH & SKY CHANNELS plus a DVD PLAYER are provided for those nights in.

For laptop owners, theres an internet connection to the house phone with an Ethernet cable (not supplied)

The kitchen is fully fitted with a dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge freezer, oven with grill and 4 ring ceramic hob, cafetiere, toaster, sandwich maker etc.

The downstairs bathroom is next to the second bedroom and has a bidet, shower cubicle, toilet and sink, with mirror and lights over with a shaving point.

The main bathroom is next to the Master bedroom and has a full bath with shower over with glass screen, bidet, toilet, sink with mirror and lights over and a shaving point. In the cupboard under the sink, you will find a hair dryer.

For golfers, I can offer my "owners discount" which amounts to approximately 25% off fees. I am happy to book the golf for you if required.

The course at La Torre is 18 holes and was designed by Jack Nicklaus.

A FREE coach runs by timetable to 4 other Polaris courses and the furthest away is 20 minutes.

As you would expect on a 5 STAR luxury golf course, there are an abundance of flowers, palm trees and beautifully cut lawns.

The resort is designed for people of all ages and not just golfers.

La Torre is a secure gated resort and we even have our own "Vigilante Police" that operate 24 hours a day.

I GIVE BELOW A SAMPLE OF THE FEEDBACK FROM PREVIOUS GUESTS, MANY OF WHICH HAVE RE-BOOKED.

Hi Barry & Jenny

Firstly, a very big thank you to you both for renting your beautiful Townhouse to us. We had a fantastic holiday and the house was just perfect.
The situation of the house, opp the communal pool was great and the closeness to the rear access gate was also good as we used this gate frequently.
Everything about the house was very positive, the decoration, the availability of everything we needed etc. Would definately use you againThanks again

Hello Barry

Thanks for all the info.

You were asking were we referred by other Londonderry folk, but, no we werent. Actually, it was your write up on the website that did it for me - that, and all the great reviews you were given on the site too! On the website you sounded like you really made an effort for your house guests, and so far with us that has been true too.

The cheque is in the post.
Many thanks,
Julie Limavady. Co. Londonderry. N.I.

ON HER RETURN JULIE HAS WRITTEN:-

Hello Barry
Happy New Year to you and your family.

Apologies for only writing now, but I havent had internet access for a while. Thanks very much for the cheque.

I wanted to let you know that my brother (Stephen) and I had a lovely holiday at La Torre. Your house is fantastic (like home from home) and we would have liked to have stayed longer! The first few days it was very windy which made it quite cold to play golf but at least it was dry. Of course towards the end of the week, just before we had to leave, the sun came out and we were in t-shirts. We played La Torre twice and Hacienda once. Both were very nice courses, and quiet which meant that we didnt have to rush round. Thanks for the golf form - it saved us a bit of money. We visited Murcia one day and drove to La Manga another, just to see a bit of the area. We also visited the Mar Menor resort, as friends of ours have bought property there. It was very different to La Torre with all the colourful buildings. Stephen would have been happy enough to relax at your house but I got him out and about!!

If were ever going back that way, well definitely get in touch to find out if your house is available. I may even organise a girly golf trip!!

Many thanks,

Julie Limavady. N. Ireland.

Dear Barry and Jenny,
We have just come back from a fantastic holiday!
The house was perfect, it had everything we could possibly need and more!!!
The location for us with two children was great with the pool so close! We sat on the roof terrace sipping Sangria and could still keep an eye on them playing in the pool!!!
Weather was sunny,hot with one day of rain in the two weeks
Vanessa was very friendly and helpful.
Looking forward to next year! Many thanks. Julie and Trevor.

Hi Barry

Just a quick line to firstly say a big thank you from myself and my family for the way you have made our recent holiday easy going from my first contact with you via various emails and telephone calls, we thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at your home in la Torr, which was exactly as described in your website and which was a big influence for us to decide to book your property, it was nice to be in an area / resort in Spain which is completed, clean and up and running with more than one could ask for. 

IE Golf, Supermarket, Restaurants and various bars and beaches not too far away, we felt the whole resort gave you a safety feel factor on evenings / day times maybe because we knew and saw the presence of security which was about, the house and pool was 1st class, and I was impressed with how many times the pool was cleaned whilst we stayed, and the regularly checks to make sure only visitors / residents were using them, I will be telling my family and Friends of your property and do hope we will be able to use it again in the future.

I hope also that Rita informed you that we left your home in a respectable condition as we first found it on our arrival.

Once again many thanks and kind regards

Hi Barry
Jake and i had a wonderful relaxing holiday in your clean and comfy town house.
Jake got great use out of the pool which was situated so that i could keep him in my view the whole time, which gave me peace of mind
.
Everything we needed was on the site and everyone there was so friendly. We didn't want to come home! We definitely want to return sometime in the not too distant future and would wholeheartedly recommend it to others. bye for now.

Hello Barry,

Just a quick note to say thanks for all the arrangements at La Torre.

The golf arrangements in particular worked extremely well, no problems at all,
all bookings and pre-payments confirmed and 3 very enjoyable rounds of golf completed.

Rita made herself known on day 1 and was very helpful, providing the girls with directions to a nearby shopping mall
whilst we were golfing and also provided some restaurant recommendations.

With average temperatures of 25/26C at mid day and half a day of cloud amidst pure sun there were certainly no complaints about the weather either.

What a shame we had to spoil it all by coming home :-))))

Once again, many thanks for your outstanding help.

Hi Barry,

Yes we had a wonderful week. Your house is just perfect and spotlessly clean. Everything was great about it especially the proximity of the pool as well as the use of towels and beach towels. Everyone was so friendly. The whole resort is a pure delight and it was kept immaculately.

I walked to the shop and back every day for a newspaper and anything that we needed and that gave me a good workout before I got down to the business of taking in some of the beautiful sunshine, which was almost constant for the whole week. We used the top balcony a lot and were in the pool whenever there was a need to cool down.

I can't think of anything that would improve the house because everything was there. We used the microwave and the washing machine but just hand washed our dishes.

This holiday was certainly worth waiting for and I think you will be hearing from us again. Now that my children are grown up we are not restricted to July/August. What's it like in June as we quite often take a holiday then too?

Anyway Barry, thanks again for the use of your house and ALL your help and understanding especially over the volcanic ash affair. I'm amazed at how you and your friends out there seem to have this all so organised. It's wonderful and such a help to the likes of us who were visiting for the first time.

Regards,

Sheena. September 2010
