We spent the most relaxing resting days from climbing at your beautiful cabin and are glad to say, that we learnt a new way of driving a car (even Adrienne managed the still hill after some tries!) Adrienne and Johannes

We made a quite long way to come from Aachen, Germany here to "Casita Maria" and expected a piece of paradise here in Southern Andalusia. But - everything is much more beautiful and unique than we dreamed of! "Casita Maria" offers such a private atmosphere that we felt like being at home at once.

It was a pleasant and relaxing stay and we enjoyed it really very much.

Than you for that wonderful holiday time!

It really has all been said before. However, our stay has had all the good bits of wild camping on a mountain top and sleeping under the stars, with none of the privations (ie comfortable bed, all mod cons, protection from flying creatures). The plunge pool is even better than a pool in a mountain stream in a lot of ways.

Congratulations to Alan and Colleen for creating this unique experience.

Just a quick note to say thank you and let you know what we particularly enjoyed - as we were driving away on Saturday i realised we forgot to sign the guestbook!

We had a great time, loved the pool, the barbecue (amazing barbecued langoustines!) and most of all the peace and quiet and the wildlife - great birdlife.

The advice on your website re shopping and places to visit was spot on. We particularly enjoyed Ronda and a shopping visit to Cartama was always a good excuse for a beer and some tapas...

Casita Maria is a very special place and a great reflection on you. Thanks again for everything.

PS - The book was great!

Thank you, it has been a unique experience for us both - to sit, read, chat without the pressure of time and urgency of deadlines ...

Martin gradually turned into "Gecko Man" as the week wore on - indulging in the high temperatures and beautiful sunshine. I, on the other hand, became a 3-toed sloth the minute temperatures crept up to and beyond 40 ...

The view are amazing and the privacy most welcome - we can see the work you have put in and thank you for sharing it.

PS Read the book - very interesting J

Thank you very much for a lovely week here. We've had a few excursions to the local villages and El Chorro on your recommendation, but most of all we've enjoyed lounging by the pool and absorbing the stunning view. We've also got into spotting the various flora and fauna but don't care to see the cheeky bread-stealing ants ever again! Rebecca and Matthew

Many thanks for your lovely hospitality and interesting conversation.

Our short stay here was just what we needed after 3 weeks touring, the location is indeed lovely and restful. Wish we had more time here with you and the adorable Lui!

All best wishes for the future

We have spent 2 lovely weeks here in your cosy little cottage.  We have really enjoyed both to relax in the nice weather - sunshine for 14 days - and making outings in this fantastic beautiful nature.  We left Denmark in 16 below!

We think to have been very lucky to know your two interesting people and very kind and caring hosts.  We will hopefully meet again.

Vi har haft 2 dejlige uger i denne hyggelige lille hytte. Vi har sådan nydt både at slappe af i det gode vejr - solskin i 14 dage - og at tage på dejlige udflugter i den fantastisk flotte natur her omkring. Vi forlod Danmark i - 16 gr. ! ! Vi har været meget glade for at lære jer at kende som nogle meget spændende mennesker og elskværdige værter. Vi ses snart igen
