Lovely villa with all that you need, even tv with UK terrestrial channels for those who cannot do without. Great views to enjoy looking at with a gin and tonic. Walk to Archez and back had two walks, one very steep but short and one longer but less strenuous. We mixed it up depending how we felt! Great places to visit nearby, within an hour, Competa, Sayalonga, Frigilana and Nerva.

This is a gem of place - and the check in process and communication with the owners is just perfect. Please note that while it is just 5 mins from the village/restaurants, the 10 min walk up the hill back to the villa will burn more than 2000 calories. It is steep! In the evening this is ok but during the hot midday sun it is impossible. The villa has everything you need - pool towels, comfy beds and every condiment under the sun. The village restaurants are fantastic and the locals are super friendly. The only negative for us was the number of barking dogs in the village - this often took away from the peace and tranquility of the setting when they started talking to each other.

Blissful Escape

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Flores and found everything satisfactory. The kitchen was well equipped and the bed was comfortable. The trip up and down the mountain was an adventure and the local restaurants and people were lovely and the prices were really reasonable though we found the generous portion sizes too much for us. The pool was divine and we spent so much time in it due to the weather being so hot. The sun beds were good quality and with very comfortable cushions as an addition. A parasol to shade under would be a welcome addition by the pool. It was a lovely way to spend our 40th wedding anniversary and the thoughtful touch of the card and sweets were well received. Thank you so much to our hosts.

Just perfect

Communication with Margaret prior to going was great, lots of helpful information received. The villa and grounds are even more beautiful than the pictures show. The most perfect place to relax and escape from the hustle and bustle! Archez is very pretty and has a few bars and an amazing restaurant, Venta El Curro, which we were told is the best restaurant in the area. It was great as we were able to walk there, which only took five minutes. There is a stunning walk way just a few minutes from the villa to the next village, which was just breathtaking. My husband and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to our friends and family and will most definitely be returning!

Beautiful house overlooking a quaint village

Casa de La Flores is a beautiful house in a stunning location. The only downside are the hills up to the house which are not for the faint hearted! We used Maria’s taxi anywhere we wanted to go, but in truth we spent most days at the house by the beautiful pool. Margaret the owner was amazing to deal with before and during our stay. We couldn’t fault the house itself, or the pool it truly was beautiful.. the pool was a perfect depth and size for us and our 2 kids (13 and 12) hours of sun and fun was had!! Truthfully you are only 5 mins walk from the village of Archez but a car would be advised if you want to explore, we didn’t do a lot so it was perfect for us! Although the hills up to the house were a struggle, what awaits at the top is fab! Carl the guy who looks after the property and cleans the pool even gave me a lift to the next village up as I needed the pharmacy! So lovely and the local people are lovely and so helpful! We visited the other 2 villages above Archez, Canillas de Albaida and Competa and tried a few local restaurants which were fab! Thanks again Margaret for sharing your beautiful house with us.. Kind regards Irene and family

Relaxing holiday with friends

This is our second stay at at this villa. Very comfortable and relaxing holiday in the beautiful peaceful village of Archez. The house and garden is well kept, as is the pool which is regularly maintained. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The beds are very comfortable and all windows are secured with mosquito screens. Since our last visit air conditioning has been installed. The terrace has a comfortable seating area perfect to watch the sunrise or relax in the evening, there are also two outside dining tables and a bbq. The owner Margaret was helpful with her advice before and during our stay. Great base for visiting surrounding villages with a superb choice of restaurants. A five minute walk down the road you will find an outstanding steakhouse, cafe bar and small shop. Thank you Margaret and Brian for sharing your home with us

Family of fours stayed for a week. Had a fab time. Pool was great - not massive but big/deep enough for four adults to have fun. Fantastic views over the nearby valley and villages. The villa is very private not overlooked by anyone. Árchez is a beautiful village with a few restaurants and bars. The owner (Margaret) is easy to communicate, very helpful with lots of great advice.

La Casa de Flores

Excellent villa in a quite location overlooking Archez. The villa is well equipped and comfortable set in lush gardens. The pool is well maintained and ideal for splashing around in and having fun. The road up to the villa is very steep and you need a car and be willing to drive on Spanish mountain roads. This is perfect for a quite getaway and a relaxing holiday.

The Hidden Villa

Our second stay. Last year it was very (as in very very) hot. The veranda and pool are cooling and perfect to stay put if it gets too much. This year we had two days of terrible storms and 3 good days of warm weather. The property faces the sun in the morning and this helps warm everything up quickly. So you can dip in the pool. When the lightening and thunderstorms appeared we could watch them skirt the Valley from our high vantage point. This year we decided to eat-in more and cook with local ingredients and the kitchen was fine for that. And there’s a teapot! But there’s plenty of local places to eat too. In short it is a home from home high in the Spanish hills. You can’t go wrong with this one.

Our Home for 2 Months

We chose a property for its location near more than one Spanish village, as well as a location for exploring walking and hiking trails. The house was perfect for 2 and in a most interesting location! The road from the A7 up and we mean up to Archez was high and curvy. One really had to concentrate because the views were incredible, and for the driver there is no sight-seeing. To be fair you can stay in the area of Archez without a vehicle, as the walking is beautiful between the villages and really you can get all the supplies you need between the three towns - Archez, Canillas de Albaida, and Cómpeta. You must be quite fit though to navigate the steep hills on foot and roadway up to the house very steep (but on the plus side, a short climb). We loved La Casa de Flores for views it afforded down onto the town of Archez and up to Canillas de Albaida and across the narrow valley. This was truly a home away from home!

Ls Casa de Flores

We booked a week's stay at La Casa de Flores at the end of October/beginning of November 2022. The property owner (Margaret) could not have been more responsive to my queries or helpful with her advice, both before and during our stay. The property itself is very well equipped and comfortable throughout. We had a lovely time and really enjoyed our stay. It was pretty much everything we were hoping for: good accommodation, fine, warm weather, lovely walks, and all the many and various pleasures of Spanish rural life. Many thanks.

Lovely Casa with great views over Archez

We had ten very relaxing days at La Casa de Flores which is a lovely very well kept property perched on the hillside overlooking Archez. Very easy to relax on the veranda with a glass of wine watching the birds, views (and chameleon). Lovely walks take you to the two neighbouring towns of Canillas de Albaida and Competa, both with plenty of bars and restaurants. Thank you Margaret for your help and great communication - we’re already looking forward to a return visit!

Casa de Flores

We have just returned from a brilliant 2 week stay at this lovely house. The house is in the quiet village of Archez and is situated on a hill overlooking the village. This gives great views of Archez, the nearby village of Cannillas de Albiada plus fantastic views of the nearby mountains. The house has everything you need with a fantastic pool and floral gardens and is very private. We hired a car for the holiday and there is loads to see in the nearby area. Along with lazy days around the pool and nights in the porch, we visited Torrox, Torre del Mar, Nerja, Frigiliana all an easy drive plus the nearby villages of Cannillas de Albiada, Competa and Salares. We also had an overnight stay in Granada and visited the magnificent Alhambra. The host Margaret was amazing throughout and gave us loads of information with quick responses and advice from booking the house pre-Covid in February 2020 through to our eventual stay in August 2022 - it was well worth the wait! We would recommend this house and would love to return in the next couple of years.
