Details

Home Description

Casa Molino is a welcoming guesthouse catering for the independent traveler and located in the upper part of the hillside village of Pinos del Valle. The Red Room is a spacious double room with touches of rustic decor along with a contemporary feel.

Casa Molino is a traditional village house located in the upper part of Pinos del Valle close to the main church square. It has been reformed and updated by ourselves over the last 9 years to provide a spacious but welcoming house in which to enjoy your holiday. We have 3 rooms available for guests to choose from – 2 located on the ground floor and the 3rd on the second floor across from the roof terrace. To ensure guests have a comfortable stay all rooms have ceiling fans for the hotter months of the year and during the winter the house is centrally heated by a large log burner located in the hallway.
Free Wifi is available throughout the house.

The Red Room has a double bed with en-suite shower room, tea & coffee making facilities, ceiling fan, radiator, TV & free WiFi. Bedding and towels are provided for guests. This room would be suitable for a couple or single occupancy.

Guests also have access to the lounge on the first floor where they can relax and watch TV, listen to music, play games or read many of the books available.

This room also serves as the breakfast room with 3 sets of table & chairs, an area for guests to prepare their own breakfast or snacks, a microwave, kettle and fridge for the sole use of guests. The fridge will be stocked with complimentary milk & water.

There is a guest terrace with table & chairs to sit, relax and soak up the sun and fresh air of the valley. A BBQ is also available and charcoal can be purchased from the local shop along with fresh BBQ meat, beer, wine & salad ingredients. With the local bakery close by for fresh bread, what a perfect way to round off a day exploring this beautiful area of Andalucia.

For guests with outdoor equipment such as cycles, golf clubs, snowboards etc. we have a secure area to the rear of the property where these can be stored during guests stay when they are not in use.

We will meet guests upon their arrival and provide them with a set of keys to their room and front door to the house. This gives guest the freedom to come and go as they wish during their stay. We also provide guests with information on the local area, bars, activities etc.

El Valle de Lecrin (The Lecrin Valley) is an area of outstanding natural beauty and is famous for its landscape of orange and lemon groves, almond and olive trees and fruits of pomegranate and grapes. The valley has been inhabited since prehistoric times due to its excellent climatic conditions and was chosen by the Moors for it's fertile land and they helped create the irrigation system we see today throughout the valley. Today it's amazing views up to the snow capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, down through the lush valley to the waters of Lake Beznar and to the mountains beyond which run down to the Costa Tropical coastline make it an ideal location to be enjoyed by it's many visitors.

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts the area offers fantastic opportunities for walkers, rock climbers, bird watchers, cyclists, golfers, painters and skiers in the winter months. With excellent road links, it also makes a great base to explore the beautiful cities of Granada, Alcala la Real, Baeza, Ubeda, and Cazorla, to name but a few, and the coast of the Costa Tropical.
The village of Pinos del Valle is split into two areas (upper & lower barrios) and has two churches with different historic interest. The upper part of the village contains bars, shops, bakery, pharmacy and bank. If the visitor would like access to more amenities & shops these can be found in the local areas of Lecrin, Durcal and Padul. 

Local cuisine can be sampled in bars/restaurants such as Bar Venecia in Pinos, Los Naranjos or Puerta del Valle in Melegis, La Tasca in Niguelas, La Casita de Papel or Hotel Espana in Lanjaron, to name but a few. The best value meal to be had is a “menu del dia," usually served Monday – Friday from 1 - 4pm (some establishments will also serve on a Saturday). The cost for 3 courses with a drink can range from 10 – 13 euros per person locally. Visitors should also note that this is one of the last areas in Spain where a free tapas is served with beer or wine (some places will also provide tapas when soft drinks are ordered).

Being just over an hours drive from Malaga airport, 45 minutes from Granada airport, 30 minutes from the beautiful city of Granada which is renowned for its historic Moorish palace – The Alhambra, 20 minutes from the spa town of Lanjaron and 20 minutes from the Costa Tropical and its beaches, Casa Molino is ideally located for exploring the surrounding area by car. The village has 2 buses a day - one departing at 7.00am to Granada and another at 3.30pm in the afternoon. Alternatively a local taxi can be used to take guests into Durcal where there is a more frequent service into Granada. Buses can also be taken from Beznar into the Alpujarra.

A wonderful hot power shower!

“Beautifully renovated guest house a real home from home! Very clean, warm, tidy and kitted out with everything one would need! A wonderful hot power shower! All very important after a hard days climbing in the Sierra Nevada mountains! Extremely generous and helpful with any enquiry from local bus time to the nearest pub! Which was too a lovely wee place with a large open fire and good tapas, cold beer and good food especially the Fries / chips!!! I will certainly be recommending it long into the further. Thank you!”
