About this property

Studio Apartment, beautiful views, aircon, pool just for you, very private.

Studio Apartment Lorel is part of the main house in the hamlet of Las Cuevas. A long private concrete drive up to the Studio, a small but perfectly comfortable apartment which has a combined Lounge/kitchenette, with all the essentials you'll need for your holiday, a double bedroom with aircon, metal framed bed. In the lounge/kitchenette there is a sofa to chill on if it gets too hot outside. You will have your own private entrance and terraces which are fenced off, so completely private, with your own parking area and gate to the poolside and a path, leading to your own private entrance.
The Studio Apartment has been designed specifically for two adults to chill and have a relaxing holiday, not overlooked or near any other property, nestling in 3 acres of land, so very peaceful with its south facing terraces have the sun all day with two Gazebos for shade, a little nook in the shade to read or to sit and admire the views over the valley and up to Comares, (a pretty tourist village with stunning views of the coast and mountains), well worth a visit, especially with your camera. There are some beautiful walks and a great friendly local bar, you can take a drive and see some of Andalucia or just relax by the pool. Once here, you will love the warmth of the summer sunshine, the clean air and the beautiful landscapes, even sitting by the pool you will enjoy a variety of views or maybe pop along to one of the bars for a coffee and tapas, they serve very reasonably priced meals too. Lorel Studio Apartment has Internet access available via WiFi should you require it, (wifi code on request), you can do as little or as much as you wish, just enjoy the peaceful surroundings during your stay here in our Studio Apartment. There is a private shaded patio with table, there you can sit and look out to the views and the pool, whilst dining alfresco, the gas BBQ is wonderful for local fish, meat and vegetables, the amazing markets in Velez Malaga, Torre del Mar, Nerja and Torrox, sell great fruit and vegetables, clothes, bags, shoes and fresh olives, dates, spices etc. Why not visit some of the local fiestas, held in the many villages around the Axarquia region, there are plenty of them happening around the summer months, from June right up until September, there is San Juan (the longest day), which takes place in June, thousand of people gather on the many beaches to give thanks and make wishes for the coming year, dipping your feet in the sea and making a wish, or even having a late night swim in the warm evening air, there are fireworks, live bands and plenty of bars to visit to have a meal or tapa, there are stalls to visit, all selling a variety of goods from clothes to food, it's a wonderful sight and many people camp on the beach overnight (the only evening it is legal here in Spain), having picnics and barbecues, making the most of the longest day. You can find out more about the different areas, different fiestas and the significant meaning to them, by looking them up on the internet, go to: andalucia.com

Although we are situated in the campo, there are many things to see and do in the Axarquia region, most of them are just a 30 minute drive, Velez-Malaga is just 20 mins drive where there are an abundance of shops, bars and restaurants, Caleta is also 20 mins drive, there you can walk along the sea front all the way to Torre del Mar if you wish, in Torre del Mar there are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants, and in the evenings, selling clothes, food, tapas, jewellery, all sorts of things. Also in Caleta is a pretty Marina, where you can book a trip out on a boat and enjoy a swim out in the med, food and drink supplied on board, you can enjoy a swim in the sea and even go in search of dolphins, we can give you details, just ask during your stay here!
Car hire is essential as we are in the Campo (countryside) there is a local bar/restaurant which can be walked to, but there are no shops within walking distance but everything is a short car ride away. We can taxi you to the shops and bars if you choose, or would like to have a drink and not drive, especially if you want a very relaxing holiday just chilling by the pool.
We have 4 dogs, Rosa, a brown/black labrador type, Molly, 11 yrs old and Tilly, 10 yrs old our Spanish Mastins, not forgetting our newest rescue, Scooby, a Mastin cross mix, all very calm, gentle dogs, all rescue dogs and were all very poorly when we they came to us, all are fit and well now, we love them to bits and hope you will too. They will be pleased to meet you, as we always welcome our guests with a drink and a chat. You get to meet us and the dogs at the same time!

For your privacy the studio area is fenced off, so you won't be disturbed by any dogs..

We are there for anything you need, advice on where to visit, directions, places to eat etc. All we ask is that you respect the fact that we have dogs and keep your speed to a minimum whilst entering and leaving Casa Lorel.......thank you.

Lovely week in the Spanish sun

We had a lovely week at Casa Lorel and Lorraine and Nigel were perfect hosts..there whenever you needed them but never intrusive. The studio is well equipped for a couple and the air conditioning was a great touch, really useful when the temperature gets a bit crazy. The pool is great and there are so many choices for places to sit and chill or eat and drink and the views are super. The dogs come and say hello but they are not allowed into your space. Overall a great holiday, thank you Lorraine and Nigel!!

The perfect get away

We spent an amazing week in Casa Lorel with Lorraine and Nigel. The view over the valley is beautiful, and even better enjoyed with a beer in hand while chilling on the sun beds. The studio is perfect for a couple. It’s well equipped and has everything you need including a little hob if you want to cook. Nigel also keeps the pool in excellent condition so it’s always ready for a dip when it gets hot. We recommend going for dinner at the local bar Ortega. We had fish, steak and an amazing goat’s cheese salad all for a very reasonable price. We highly recommend staying here!

A charming and peaceful place

We spent a wonderful week at Casa Lorel. Lorraine and Nigel were perfect hosts, attentive without being intrusive. The pool was immaculate and the studio was very clean, neat and had everything we needed. Beautiful vistas all around. If you are looking for a relaxing break in peaceful countryside then Casa Lorel is perfect. Thanks to both of you and give the pups a cuddle from us!

Everything you need and more, amazing pool, great views and wonderful hosts.

Stunning views in the mountains, far enough out to feel like you are really in “the Campo”, but within easy driving distance of some of the most unspoilt white villages, and some of the most pretty beaches of the coast. Lorraine and Nigel could not have been more welcoming hosts, ready with a glass of ice cold beer after a long journey. They could not have done anything more for us, and going out to dinner with them on our last night was a total joy. The welcome pack went above and beyond even including beer, bacon and cava what more could you want ! The pool is really quite large and probably the cleanest and sparkliest I have ever seen. The dogs are adorable and for us having left our German Shepard at home really made our holiday although our hosts made sure they were very well behaved and made sure they weren’t obtrusive. We will definitely be back, already looking at flights !

Wonderful surroundings and tranquility

We stayed for 6 nights and had a wonderful time. Lorraine and Nigel were very welcoming and lovely people. We spent most of our time around the pool and although the weather wasn’t the best a couple of days, we still had a great stay. You will not be disappointed with this property or the hosts!

A lovely property and a superb pool and garden area with amazing views.

My husband and I have just returned home after 2 weeks of total relaxation. We spend much of our time lazing by the pool and making full use of the day bed and sun lounges. When we did venture out the area has the most stunning scenery and plenty of places to visit. We used the bbq several evenings and swam in the pool late into the evening. The local bars are very friendly and the food is very good. The owners Lorraine and Nigel are very friendly and have a great knowledge of the area. They make you feel at home and also respect your privacy. We are planning to return soon.

A lovely place to stay in a charming rural location and friendly owners

Our 10 day holiday was wonderfully relaxing at this absolutely lovely location. The accommodation has everything you need and the pool is ideally located to swim and take in the views over the valley. A nice way to cool down in the almost guaranteed sunshine. The owners Lorraine and Nigel are very friendly and generous, more than reflected in the lovely welcome pack warm welcome on our arrival. They were always on hand if needed and were always keen to answer our many (probably never ending) questions regarding the region. There is much to recommend and I am sure we will be back.

Idyll in the Hills

Wow! In fact Bow Wow! What a wonderful place . Absolutely stunning location overlooking the Cuevas valley with superb views of Comares serenely perched on the far ridge. It looks beautiful in the day and at night it's lights twinkle and dance like a line of fire flies. The studio, pool and terrace are the perfect place to relax and unwind . The property is surrounded by olive and almond groves and when I could drag myself away from the pool there are some beautiful walks directly from the house. The wild flowers were in abundance at this time of year and we had a memorable trip to El Torcal to see the fascinating landscape and profusion of orchids. Lorraine and Nigel are superb hosts and they go out of their way to meet your needs and make your holiday experience the best it can be. It was a privilege to meet them and share their lovely villa. They respected our privacy but were always available when needed to give advice or information or just for a chat .They helped us settle in , generously providing a ' welcome pack ' of more than basic foodstuffs including beer and Cava and then served us a welcome drink or two as we chatted and watched the sun go down. We met the six dogs who over the 10 days were a constant source of entertainment. I especially got to like old Pez who had so much character, but they all had there own unique personalities. Always pleased to see you when you returned from an excursion. The pool is clean and well maintained by Nigel who uses minimal but effective amounts of chlorine . The temperature was just about right and perfection at about 7 pm. Ideal for a vigorous swim before cocktails on the terrace in the warm evening sunshine. I could write so much more but I will sum up by saying that for a couple it has to be one of the best self catering places to stay in this area. Many thanks for sharing your home with us. David and Liz

miss it already ! such a relaxing week !

just returned from a weeks stay at this lovely, lovely place. We went away for a peaceful, relaxing break away from the stresses of life and this place delivered on everything. Lorraine and Nigel were very welcoming , as were their 6 lovely dogs ! The studio had everything we needed and the outdoor space was fab. The pool was very welcome , especially on the very hot days and we enjoyed a refreshing evening swim with the pool lights on (once we discovered them ). We spent most days lazing round the pool but did venture out to Benamargosa to do our food shopping which just a short drive away. We also enjoyed a lovely meal out at the local bar Ortega ( a 5 min drive) with Lorraine and Nigel. All in all, highly recommended, especially for those wanting some R & R. Thanks to Lorraine and Nigel for being such great hosts

An oasis in a stunning paradise

I can only agree with all the reviews so far. The very warm welcome from Lorraine and Nigel (and couple of glasses of bubbly) helped to start our holiday off in the best way. The property suited our needs perfectly: a great base from which to explore all that Axarquia and the Costa del Sol had to offer. Lorraine and Nigel also suggested other places to visit such as the Lobo Park and the stunning restaurant El Charco with its amazing views and incredible food. Our days were spent in a mixture of exploring the area and relaxing at the studio reading and swimming and drinking Cava! We couldn't have wished for better hosts who did everything to make sure we relaxed and enjoyed our holiday. We would wholeheartedly recommend this property to friends and relatives and anyone wishing to get away from it all. The property was clean and maintained to a high standard and had everything we needed. I would go so far as to say that this was the best holiday we've had in Spain and most of that was down to the fabulous apartment and the wonderful Lorraine and Nigel. I very much hope we'll be able to go back before too long - I'd go back now if I could!!

This place should be available on the NHS!

This place should be available on the NHS for anyone who needs to rest and relax! We had an absolutely chilled out week, and loved it! The accommodation is small but everything that you may need is there! The views are stunning, it looks like the Highlands of Scotland with little white houses everywhere and obviously a lot warmer than the Glens! Nigel and Lorraine are hosts extraordinaire! They are delightful people, really made us feel at ease, and are so discreet, yet always to hand if you need them! They truly understand that this is your time away, and treasure that almost as much as you do! We would recommend anyone who likes the quiet life, to head out here. We didn't hire a car, we simply spent a week enjoying the pool and the sunshine, and each other! Great to spend that much time with your significant other! Thankyou again Nigel and Lorraine, for everything! And give our love to all the dogs! Mark & Denise Scott, Scottish Borders

A relaxing peaceful holiday

This is the perfect spot for a relaxing peaceful holiday. The pool area with fabulous surrounding views has everything to make a day in the sun comfortable. The studio, although a little on the small side, is very well equipped and clean, with comfortable mattress, powerful shower, TV with all the English channels, very fast internet/wi-fi connection and good lighting. The lovely village of Benamorgosa, 11 kms away, has a very good little supermarket selling lots of good fresh local produce and excellent wine. Lorraine and Nigel are a lovely couple, very helpful and have an excellent knowledge of all things Spanish. The dogs are good value and very well behaved. We had a lovely holiday and would definitely recommend this property for a "get away from it all" break.

Wonderful early season break

This was my second stay at Casa Lorel and it was every bit as good as the first time the year before. The location is magnificent with stunning views across to Comares a mountain top village in the distance. It really is the perfect chill out location and there is nothing better than interspersing a swim in the lovely pool with sitting under the gazebo if it is too hot and reading/listening to music surrounded by the fabulous scenery. Lorraine and Nigel are the perfect hosts who will leave you to it if you want or share a drink and a chat if you want some company. They will also take you to restaurant/bars or places of interest (Comares is defintely worth a trip). The studio accommodation is lovely with a fabulous en-suite shower room. All in all I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Delightful

My wife and I stayed here at Casa Lorel in early May and had a lovely week. It is a very nice comfortable and clean studio with lots of the little extras you don't usually get. A good welcome pack, tea, coffee, suger etc and all the kitchen and bathroom bits you'd need. Used the barbecue many times too. Our hosts were very helpful and provided all our needs. The setting is beautiful, peaceful and relaxing and we had a great time, we would certainly recomend it as a great place to visit and recharge your batteries. David & Gill.

Loved this Place !

My husband and I visited here in May 2012 and we had a very relaxing break and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Lorraine and Nigel were perfect hosts who taxied us around to all the local sites and even had a drink with us at the local bar! We visited Comares which is a stunning little village that is so picturesque, you can look up at it when lying in the pool at the villa. We also took a trip to the Lake which was the colour of aquamarine, really nice to have an ice cream or a coffee at the cafe. I also took in some horse riding as i love the Andulucian Horses. Claire was a very good guide for the area and a good instuctor if your learning to ride, we just had a right good chin wag, while out a hack,(thats a walk to you non horsey people,Nigel), as she was very friendly and chatty. The villa had everything we needed and the pool and garden,bbq area was very clean and tidy. The local bar is very friendly and the food is good and reasonably priced. Last but not least, Jess, the resident guard dog,likes some treats shes a big softy! Thanks for the cowboy hat Nigel x Will return in September ! Love Stephen and Adele

Lovely relaxing break

My wife and I visited here this summer and had a fantastically relaxing break. We needed some time for ourselves so decided we wanted to get away for a short break that would provide peace and tranquillity, this holiday supplied that in spades, with peaceful evenings and lazy days by the pool, although we did spend a few evenings at the local bar which serves very good, reasonably priced food. The weather was beautiful and we both made the most of this. Lorraine and Nigel (the properties owners) live on site in the main building, they keep themselves to themselves but are such a friendly and helpful couple that we have since stayed in touch are planning to re-visit again in the coming months. If its a relaxing break that you are looking for, then do not hesitate to book and stay here. Keith & Jo Donegan

2 weeks on holiday at Casa Lorel

We had a great 2 weeks, with sunshine all the way. We spent days out touring around the mountains and the views are spectacular. We also spent a few days visiting the shores and beaches. Some of our days we happily had idle time by the poolside, relaxing, enjoying the sun, and the occasional bbq. The accomadation is a little small, but perfectly adequate as most of your time is spent outside. The owners were very helpful in giving us advise and a knowledge of the area. We had a great holiday and will definately go back again.

About the host

Hosted by Lorraine Pendry

Host profile image
We have been visiting this part of Spain since 1998, loved it so much, we decided to move here, we moved onto a 46ft Motor Cruiser, for 8 years, whilst selling up our house and possessions, we were finally able to make the leap in 2010!
We adore the Axarquia region, we never tire of the wonderful views and stunning scenery, we love telling our guests all about it and guiding them to places of natural beauty and interest, we would love you to join us here for your holiday and should you wish, we can advise on places to visit. We look forward to meeting you.

Why they chose this property

We were shown a few parcels of land, none were what we wanted, then one of our friends who was in property, told us of this plot of land in Las Cuevas, we though we should take a look, well, we fell in love with the lovely views and the size of the plot, we couldn't say no!! Within 6 months the house was built and the rest is history, here we are!!! Moving to Spain was the best thing we ever did, with our family and friends visiting us and having made some wonderful friends, Spanish and English, what more could we want!

What makes this property unique

The wonderful climate, although we do have some really wet winters, overall the weather is wonderful, you know you can rely on the weather in the summer for a BBQ or a pool party! Even in the winter, during the day, if the sun is shining, it's warm, until the evening when the temperature drops, but never as cold as the UK.
We grow Olives, something we could never do in the UK, never, ever been gardeners, but we are slowly learning how it works! We now have 4 beautiful rescue dogs, all came to us in bad condition, but now happy and content, they are all gentle souls, obviously they will bark when they see you but soon will become a great source of entertainment and will love pats and tickles from you, should you wish to befriend them all.
