About the Property

La Terraza is a very spacious house of contemporary design with one-acre gardens and private pool. The property is set mongst vineyards and has fantastic mountain and valley views. There are many outside relaxation areas to enjoy ... the pool terrace, master bedroom terrace, lower garden terrace, upper dining terrace (we think akin to being in a tree house) and lower bedroom terrace ... hence the name of the house. The gardens are private with sunny and shaded areas. The living accommodation of La Terraza is on the upper floor and is open plan, light and airy with cathedral ceilings and a central log-burner. French doors open on to the enormous, partially covered terrace where we have outside dining table and chairs to take full advantage of the magnificent views across the vineyards to the mountains. The kitchen has luxury fittings and the solid oak dining table seats 8. La Terraza is beautifully furnished throughout .. leather sofas, quality super king size beds and linen.

Location of Property

La Terraza is located approximately 500 metres from the country road leading from Benissa to Lliber and Jalon. It is situated down a well-maintained sandy lane through the vineyards which is access to 4 houses only and therefore has no passing traffic. There are 2 neighbouring houses situated on the hillside behind La Terraza, though this property remains totally private due to its large gardens bordered by trees. Lliber village is 1.5km from the villa and has the usual small village shops plus a couple of bars and restaurants. Jalon town is 3km distant and has a wide range of amenities, including larger shops, internet cafes, restaurants and bars, wineries and a very popular Saturday bric a brac market. The resorts of Calpe, Moraira and Javea are 15/20 minutes drive from the villa. Car hire is essential.

What we think of this Property and Location as a Holiday Choice

We think of La Terraza as our Jalon Valley flagship ... its our own second home and we spend as much time here as possible, especially in the winter and spring months when guests aren“t staying.

Its a proper second home, well-furnished and equipped, its very spacious and we love its privacy and position, tucked away in the vineyards of the Jalon Valley.

The gardens are large (1 acre) with plenty of room to run around and all the terraces and sitting areas are absolutely private and not overlooked. We only have two neighbouring houses so if you are looking for privacy and seclusion, you have it.

Guest Comments

Thank you for our wonderful holiday at La Terraza. We can't thank you enough for providing a wonderful villa in a great location & your kind, attentive approach to us as guests certainly made for a holiday to remember. Simon W, Manchester, Aug 2006

It was even better than we'd anticipated from the photographs. It's spacious, quiet & all provisions were thoughtfully catered for. The location was great, plenty to do & no shortage of places to eat out. We just wish we could have stayed another week. D & D, April 2007

The property was of a very high standard with everything we needed for the week. The presentation & cleanliness was faultless. The pool was fantastic. We really enjoyed the peace & tranquillity, the location was good, not too far from shops, restaurants etc. Chris & Kath A., Lancs.July 2007

I want to tell you that staying at La Terraza was the best part of our vacation. I only wish I had been smarter and book the house for 2 weeks... Oana S. Arad, Romania. July 2007

Just writing to say that we had a lovely time at the villa and would not hesitate to recommend it to our friends. Thank you very much for allowing us to have a lovely holiday. - Amanda and Ian T., Milton Keynes. May 2009.

Just wanted to say thank you very much for a lovely holiday - we all enjoyed the villa very much. - Sally S., Stoke on Trent. June 2009.

Thank you so much for the holiday, we all really enjoyed it. You have a lovely place that you can be proud of and your pool got a real belting! Oh, and by the way, if you had anything to do with it, thanks for the weather! Maureen, Michael and Janet, Warwickshire. June 2009

We had a lovely holiday. The villa was very well equipped and the setting was ideal - it provided the privacy we wanted for our holiday. The villa was bigger than we expected from viewing the photos on line when we booked. We liked the fact that pool towels were included for our use. We found the red booklet of things to do and see useful - we visited the waterfall and the cave. Thanks for your tip of where to buy the local cheap wine - very nice and very good value for money. All in all an excellent holiday and we would definitely return and recommend you to others, many thanks. - Louise H., Saffron Walden, Essex. August 2009.

I just wanted to drop you a line to say that La Terraza was a wonderful place to spend our holiday in Spain in the last fortnight. Every need was catered for in the villa and the children absolutely loved the swimming pool. Thank you very much. Megan, David, Evelyn, Sophia, Gravesend, Kent. July 2009.

We cannot rate La Terraza highly enough. It has everything a family could need and is in the perfect location. This was our second year at the villa and we will be coming back again next year. The pool is beautiful with just the right amount of shade most of the day and the accommodation is so spacious. We particularly enjoy eating out on the terrace and enjoying the views of the Jalon valley. The only minor suggestion I could make for improvement would be to remove a few of the trees to improve the view further. - Pete and Sara H., Haywards Heath. August 2009.

Beautiful villa with stunning views. We have stayed here several times - sometimes with family/friends & also just as a couple. For us the big bonus is 2 x super kingsize bedrooms which means that guests don't feel 2nd class by being put in a twin room or that we have to compromise on our level of luxury. Well equipped kitchen & excellent outdoor facilities - tables, sunloungers, barbeque & good sized pool which is very private. A car is a necessity because of the location; we always pick up a car from the airport which means that you have access to all the small towns & villages in the surrounding area. We are planning another visit next year with Australian friends. - Judy and Neil, Bridgnorth, Shropshire. October 2009.
