Romantic cottage in Frigiliana, 1 bedroom

When Damian, the owner, contacted us to promote his cottage, he didn't mention anything about the name. Instead he sent us a couple of pictures which we liked a lot and we agreed to visit the house in the autumn of 2009. That day he picked us up in the village of Frigiliana and accompanied us for a beautiful 10 minute drive through the mountains. The road has some pronounced curves but doesn't cause any problems as the track is fully surfaced with concrete. Once there, we were impressed by the delightful location where this "cortijo" hides: one of the prettiest valleys in the area that borders with the Sierra Tejada Natural Park. Although it may seem like you are far from the sea here, the beaches of Nerja (9 km) are only a 20 minute drive away. The cottage is set on generous grounds that belong to the family, with a few more houses that all have their own privacy. From the beginning, Damian and his wife made it very clear that they wanted to respect nature and integrate the house with the surrounding ambiance. And they succeeded: the cottage is surrounded by pine trees, aromatic plants, and centennial olive trees that are cultivated ecologically. With the enchanted valley as a background, you will find the the salt water private pool (9x4 m) surrounded by a charming terrace with elegant furniture. The garden and pool area are made with natural stones and wood and surrounded by trees, giving it a very Mediterranean touch. From the living room, French doors open onto the “green tiled terrace”—the perfect spot for enjoying your breakfast and dinner while you dream away with magnificent views of the landscape. The colourful Moroccan table at the entrance of the house sets the ambiance for relaxation and it is here that the name of the house appears. Asked for the significance of "Colores en el viento", Damian answers: "If you are able to appreciate the beautiful gifts of nature and enjoy them as a moment of happiness, then you have found the 'Colours in the Wind'.”
