We have had a wonderful 2 weeks, no problems. The property has behaved itself. The general area is very Spanish, as you would expect and this, in contrast to the coastal strip, is welcome. Estacion De Cartama Sunday Market was good for fruit and vegetables. The Restaurant across the road was a great hit and the food was very good. The main A357 road down to Malaga is good and gets you to Mivas and Nerja and other places of interest. We have driven almost 100 km in the time here so have been all around. We note your comment on local bird life and can confirm:- swallows, swifts, martins, white egrets in the trees below, what looked like a harrier or buzzard and in the early evening the song of nightingales from the undergrowth below. At night you can hear the bark of foxes. The juicer was popular and the oranges small and very sweet. All in all a most enjoyable stay in your Finca Rustica. Many thanks for the Welcome Pack – most useful. Wishing you all the best with Los Milagros (The Miracles).

Thank you so much for the ‘loan' of Los Milagros for the last 2 weeks. We have had an absolutely fabulous holiday in your secluded retreat. The surrounding views of the mountains are spectacular and we have enjoyed watching the sunset from the roof terrace. The children have enjoyed identifying all the different planes, counting the carriages on the trains, picking and squeezing lemons and especially finding lizards that seem to appear late in the afternoon. However of course the biggest attraction has been the fabulous pool where we have spent most of our time cooling off as it has been extremely hot (39 C). Again the views from the pool are breathtaking and couldn't be bettered …….. so relaxing. On the days when we have managed to drag ourselves away from Los Milagros we have explored most of the coastline. Malaga – much more interesting than we had expected, especially the shopping area near the Cathedral. Nerja – the Caves 4km to the east are well worth a visit. The Lakes – spectacular and un-commercialised. Hiring a peddalo and swimming was great fun. The Restaurant above the lake was open all day and not too pricy. Puerto Banus – the yachts were unbelievable! Marbella – the old town was fascinating. On our second visit we managed to park on the road. We seem to have spent quite a lot on car parks in Spain! Mijas – in the summer months you can see a display of Spanish dancing (3 girls and 1 man) every Wednesday at 12 noon in the main square. This was very entertaining and the show lasted about 45 minutes. We feel quite at home here and can't wait to come back! This welcome pack was especially useful, especially the tea and butter! Thanks for a great holiday! The games were also a great hit – we're addicted to ‘Pitt'!!

Fabulous 3 weeks, villa very private, pool used all day, never went far from the pool. Son and daughter-in-law and baby Grace joined us for the last 2 weeks. Grace loved the pool, she is 14 months and loved her holiday. Many thanks.

I'd just like to send the thanks of myself and the party for a fantastic week at Los Milagros.  Firstly the weather was fantastic (hot, hot, hot) so the pool was used extensively - apart from a morning in Malaga (beautiful) and a lunch at Tintero we never left it.  The scenery was stunning especially in the morning and evening light and the birdwatching was perfect for poolside twitching.  You have the full set of swallows, swifts and martins (sand & house), little egrets, black birds and the nightingale (among so many others), for me though the highlights were the Imperial eagles which I have now positively identified.  The house and grounds were wonderfully private and although still in progress, the standard of the renovation work is 1st class; I will definitely be back when I get a chance, hopefully when the second half has been finished. 

We had a really good time if a little short.  Perhaps two weeks next time.
