Great location, but some room for improvement
To start off, the house is beautifully located, optimal for those who love nature and tranquility. The house is in the centre of a private estate, but also near the picturesque village Trujillo, which is well worth a visit.
The house is attached to the house of the house keeper, and the kitchen window of the house keeper's house looks onto the house's garden, which sometimes felt uncomfortable. Otherwise, the "neighbours" are very quiet and kind.
The pool is large and clean, but it is worth noting that it is NOT the pool that can be seen on the pictures on this website, which we found quite strange. (the pool is surrounded by tiles and walls, not by grass and trees)
The house itself was clean with spacious bedrooms but a tiny kitchen. For those who like to eat out it's fine, but the kitchen is indeed quite small for those who like cooking. All other rooms are comfortably large and nicely decorated (English country style).
We were here in the middle of summer, which was extremely hot this year, and we noticed that the garden lacks space and equipment to sit in the shade comfortably. The narrow garden seems to retain the heat, which felt quite muggy. There is a garden set made out of very heavy iron, but it is not really comfortable to sit on. Some comfortable garden chairs would make a great addition to the house.
Furthermore, the sewage needs fixing, and during our stay some rooms were very smelly and the odor even reached the garden.
In conclusion, we enjoyed the estate (which we imagine is very beautiful in spring season!), the pool and Trujillo, but believe that this house has some potential still to be unlocked, and hope that the owners can find some use in our advice.
