- Guest Comments
We had a great time. We found some wonderful places to visit and eat, loved the local wine a bit too much! Many thanks for a brilliant 10 days at your fantastic villa - Kevin L., Southampton. September 2011.
Very quiet, peaceful location with great views. Nice place to relax and chill out with all mod cons - Chris P., Cleveland. September 2011.
Thank you, Angie and Simon,for helping to make our holiday at La Terraza so wonderful - we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 weeks. The house is comfortable and well equipped and matched the high standards advertised. The pool was exceptional - very clean and well maintained (the best we have ever had in 6 years visiting Spain) so thanks to Simon for his regular visits. The location of La Terraza is fantastic with easy access to many lovely villages. Lliber and Jalon provided all we needed in terms of shopping and restaurants with the added bonus of Bodega Rico (next to the supermarket in Jalon). We would definitely return and have no hesitation in recommending La Terraza - Fiona M., Leeds. August 2011.
The location is stunning, we loved the space and seclusion compared to places we have stayed previously. We had some lovely cycling trips into the hills above Jalon, and beaches close by as well. It is a great place to see the real Spain as well as the tourist Spain, and we enjoyed both. We found La Terraza really clean and well equipped with good quality products, and having internet access was a plus. We found the restaurant recommendations very useful in Jalon and we also went to the nearby Restaurant Vall del Pop which does excellent grilled meat and traditional dishes - Sarah C., Chiswick, West London. July 2011.
This is a wonderfully relaxing, peaceful and scenic place to stay. The villa is very comfortable and the shaded terrace is a lovely place to chill out and enjoy the fantastic views across the valley. There is a good supermarket and a reasonable choice of restaurants/bars (some of them English run) in the local town of Jalon which is only a 5 min drive away. So you have peace and seclusion at the villa but not far to go if you fancy a meal out. We recommend Salamanca, where we enjoyed a lovely meal sitting outside under some vines, and also the fish and chips from Harry Staffords! As we have a fussy eater in the family we didn't get to enjoy the local cuisine but the owners recommend a number of places to eat in the area where you can do this. We did venture to the coast a couple of times but found it a bit overdeveloped and built up for our tastes. Although there is a great ice cream place opposite the beach in Javea! I would recommend taking a good local map with you if you plan to explore the area as we didn't have one and got lost on the way back from the coast one day. The house itself has everything you need including comfortable beds and settees and decent showers. The pool is a good length for swimming although we did have to contend with a number of wasps at the shallow end. While disconcerting no-one got stung and they were absent early in the morning and later in the day so not a big problem. If I could suggest a couple of improvements I would say that the sun loungers by the pool could do with being upgraded and the wall-mounted TV would be better if it was on a swivel arm in the living area as it is not ideally positioned for the settees. One of the highlights of our holiday was walking up the steep road behind the villa and being rewarded with breathtaking views of the valley and encircling mountains. All-in-all a great place to go to if you want to get away from it all and re-charge your batteries - Jackie T., Belfast. July 2011.
A lovely villa in beautiful countryside. Private but close to all amenities. The villa is immaculate & has everything you need to make it a "Home from Home". Would definitely go there again - Sue M., Liverpool. June 2011.
This is the perfect place for a perfect holiday. There were only the two of us staying this year, but it was just as lovely with four of us staying last year - we are already planning to book for next year. The villa is well-placed for for sight-seeing in the area and yet is in a private and peaceful setting - the views are fantastic. Angie and Simon couldn't be more helpful or friendly and the villa is spacious and has absolutely everything you need. The pool is ideal and everything is clean and well-cared for. The information folder in the villa is extremely helpful and there are plenty of excellent suggestions for places to visit. We can't fault this place in any way and feel that we will be yearly visitors for a long time to come. Highly recommended on every level - Anna and Rob, Norfolk and USA. June 2011.
This was our first visit to Spain and our first stay in a villa. La Terraza has got the wow factor. The villa itself is larger than it looks and is very clean , modern and well equipped. We settled in very quickly to a very happy stay. Eating breakfast out on the terrace with mountain views was fantastic. The pool (with lights at night) is great and well maintained. The villa is off road surrounded by pine trees and vineyards. Many beaches are a short car trip away. We explored a little around the local area to find panoramic views from mountain roads, a prehistoric cave and waterfalls you can actually swim in. Our family of two adults and three children all think that La Terraza villa itself combined with its location and views is definitely A+ . We will book again next year - Vicky and Neil, Tamworth, Staffs. May 2011.
This is a beautiful villa with a definite wow factor. It has everything you could absolutely want or wish for and it suited our family of three generations. It was very spacious inside and the outside space was amazing. We went quite early in the season so the pool was cool but the children (and a couple of the adults) managed to make use of it. Best of all given the time of year (April) we were able to sit outside on the terrace, eating alfresco, with the full evening sun given the villa is west facing. Lovely area, lovely villa ......... and the owners were very welcoming and very helpful. I cannot recommend this villa highly enough - Lynne B., Bury, Greater Manchester. April 2010.
We had a lovely short week stay in this beautiful, well designed and maintained villa. It was very peaceful and relaxing - ideal to unwind. Easy access to major local towns and good supermarket and shops (including a good selection of Bodegas!) in Jalon. We would definitely recommend this villa and will be back again - Julie H-W., West Yorks. May 2010.
The villa was extremely well located in a tranquil location in the Jalon Valley. A car is essential but the local villages provide all amenities should you not wish to venture too far, with the beaches of the Costas about a 20-25 minute drive away. We have been booking villa holidays for six years now and this villa is the one we would say was a home from home, the quality of the fixtures and fittings ie Furniture, bedding, bathroom towels, outdoor towels was excellent. Items we normally have to run out and buy such as dishwashing tablet, washing power were provided, in addition to a welcome pack including milk, tea, coffee, wine, enough to get you by until you can get to the shops next day should you arrive late. We would recommend this villa for a quite, relaxing stay - Fiona C., West Lothian. May 2010.
This is a lovely spacious villa with plenty of Spanish character. It has beautiful views and is situated in a quiet, peaceful area. We went with our five kids and they enjoyed being in the pool which is a good size. The kitchen is well equipped, three comfortable bedrooms and satellite TV. I would recommend this property to families, or anyone wanting a peaceful break - Zoe M., Stockton on Tees. June 2010.
Excellent location - superb views from the terrace and pool and the surrounding area is ideal for those who want to experience Spain away from the tourist areas. Trips into the mountains highly recommended - Steve and Charmaine A., Chelmsford. July 2010.
A fantastic villa in a wonderful location. We loved the views from the terrace looking out over the valley, a fantastic spot in the daytime or evening. We travelled as a family of four with two teenagers aged 18 and 19 and they loved the pool! The villa is clean and spacious and it is a lovely touch that you are met and taken to the villa on your day of arrival. I would not hesitate to recommend La Terraza to friends and family. However, a car is absolutely essential - Kevin and Paula F., Surrey. August 2010.
Had a fabulous time in such a wonderful villa which lived up to all expectations from the website and in fact was even more spacious than the pictures showed. The pool was so fantastic that it was hard to tear ourselves away from it. The local area is very beautiful with so much to see and do that a fortnight just wasn't long enough! One "must do" which we would highly recommend is the sunset catamaran trip from Denia - unmissable! We definitely hope to return - Rachel W., Cardiff. August 2010.
We cannot rate La Terraza highly enough. It ticks all the boxes for us and is in the most beautiful rural setting with stunning panoramic views up the Jalon Valley - made all the more impressive by the removal of some of the many pine trees that surround the villa. The villa has been recently refurbished inside with new high quality kitchen appliances and soft furnishings. I have stayed in other villas in the area, but they are not a patch on La Terraza. It is the ideal place to escape to and we certainly intend to return - Pete H., Haywards Heath. August 2010.
Beautiful views, excellent pool. Airy rooms and spacious balconies. Well-equipped cooking and eating facilities. Our second visit and will stay again - Adam and Anna A-F., Cornwall. September 2010.
This was our second stay at La Terraza so we knew we were staying at an excellent property. Angie and Simon are so helpful and such nice people. We will definitely stay there again, possibly for a longer period - Geraldine and Nigel D., Co. Limerick, Ireland. September 2010.
Wow, what an amazing holiday and place, perfect place to go and completely get away from everything. Already looking at going back next year! - Barry, Dawn, Jason and Sandy, Winchester, Hants. October 2010.
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.
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.
