  : We'd never been to Chulilla before but this won't be our last trip and this cottage will be where we want to stay. It is perfect for a couple but would be difficult for anything more. The town itself is fantastic, built on the side of a narrow gorge with tiny winding streets and wonderful views. There are excellent restaurants, a super bakery and tremendous walks. The cottage had a living room and kitchen downstairs and a living room, bedroom and bathroom upstairs. It is old and full of character but this doesn't detract from the comfort of the place. This is helped by a wood burning stove, wonder upon wonder an electric kettle [why are these so scarce in Spain] and a good shower. The cottage is on the edge of the ravine [and the terrace looks out over this] and despite being only 50 metres from the centre of the town, it is incredibly quiet. It is NOT the place for someone who wants a giant TV, a jacuzzi or a state of the art kitchen. It is absolutely the place for anyone who prefers charm to flash
  : The only things was the hot water in the upstairs tap doesn't work [although the shower is fine] A couple of things to be aware of, although they aren't a problem you just need to plan. 1. There are a couple of steps on the living room floor that are quite easy to trip over and the stairs are steep so it isn't a place for someone with mobility issues 2. There is no parking at the cottage. In fact you need to drop your bags in the town square, about 50 metres away and carry them to the cottage. You then have to park in one of the town parking lots that are 3-5 minutes away

  : Really spacious loft, with some historical stuff :). We loved the view and proximity to the pitches. Host was very helpful with the explanation. Bed was comfortable. Internet tv was really good companion for nights.
  : Practically nothing.

Very Good

  : Beautiful scenery from the bedrooms. Location is very handy for the village centre. The owner was there to receive me and gave me a guided tour of the house and explained all the facilities.
  : Some written instructions on how to use the ceramic hob would have been useful, since I had not used one before.

  : The location was perfect for that special experience. Looking right into nature the vista was breathtaking. The apartment was very quiet, but you also had cafe's and restaurants within a few minutes walk. There is hiking and rock climbing on your doorstep if you are feeling active. Our host was very welcoming and did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable.

  : An absolutely wonderful holiday rental property for a few days in a delightful rural village just an hour from Valencia. Tanis (the host) has created a lovely haven of comfort with loads of space. VERY recommended. We could have stayed a week +.
  : Nothing really. Be prepared for a car park thats 7 mins walk away from the property. (EUR4 a day but nobody paid!)

  : We recently had the pleasure of staying at Estanislao's charming two-storey accommodation, and it was an experience we highly recommend. The highlight for us was the separate terrace, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, a popular spot for climbing enthusiasts. The house is well-equipped with all the necessary kitchen utilities, including a Nespresso coffee maker, pots, pans, a microwave, a small oven, and a fridge, making self-catering a breeze. The upper floor features a spacious bedroom and a bathroom with a shower, providing comfort and privacy. On the lower floor, there's a cozy fireplace, and Estanislao thoughtfully ensures there's always enough wood available for guests. Estanislao, our host, was incredibly supportive throughout our stay. He even offered us rides from and to the bus station in Losa del Obispo, which was greatly appreciated. The location is conveniently situated near a few small grocery stores, bars, and a bakery that bakes fresh bread every morning. The area is a haven for hiking enthusiasts, offering a variety of routes and stunning scenery. For indoor entertainment, the house is equipped with two TVs, WiFi, and an internet-connected set-box, compatible with personal Netflix accounts. In summary, Estanislao's place is a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and natural beauty. Whether you're there for the climbing, hiking, or simply to relax, this accommodation is sure to enhance your experience.
  : While our stay at Estanislao's place was overall delightful, there were a couple of aspects that could be improved: Firstly, due to the age of the building, the sound insulation is not ideal. We found that we could hear noises from the floor above us quite easily. If you're a light sleeper or someone who appreciates undisturbed sleep, bringing earplugs might be a good idea. Secondly, the building's age also means that the ground floor lacks windows, except for a small one in the kitchen used for ventilation. This was a bit of a letdown, especially during the colder months, as it restricted our enjoyment of the stunning surrounding views from within the house. Despite these issues, the charm and location of the place do offer a unique experience, but it's good to be aware of these factors when planning your stay.
