PLAZA ANDALUCÍA UNO A colonnaded courtyard villa, sleeping up to 8, with its own completely private swimming pool, CASA UNO lies within the magic triangle of Andalucía s three great Moorish cities - Cordoba, Seville and Granada. It offers a very private holiday haven, in a small hilltop village, far from the madding crowd of the costas, yet with easy access to the Spanish motorway system and all the delights of 21 st century Spain s ancient but exuberant civilisation near at hand. It is a house expressly designed for the enjoyment of the pleasures of life, full of lovely works of art, antique furniture and Moroccan tables and textiles. A place to relish, relax and unwind in. A space to dream in and recharge creative batteries. A base for all kinds of exploration and adventure. The downloadable PDF GAZETTEER which is available on our website shows how Las Pinedas nests within a whole series of concentric circles for shopping, sport and recreation, Spanish-style eating and cultural exploration.
