Neil's place is absolutely beautiful. I would say high up there on my Top 5 Airbnb's I have stayed in!
Location:
For an escape to the mountains and a quite retreat, this little hideaway is absolutely perfect. Fornalutx is a small town, offering 6 restaurants, a beautiful landscape of orange groves and mountains and a few great bakeries and coffee shops. Neil's apartment is situated perfectly within walking distance to all of these but also a little outside of the town for you to be able to find parking and a little private retreat.
Apartment:
The apartment is within Neil and Julies home, although you would never know as it is completely self contained, with its very own balcony, kitchen, bathroom and living area. The communal lounge area downstairs is beautifull decorated and very comfortable. However, the living area itself in the apartment, allows for lazy days in the room and on the balcony. We were here in winter and the fireplace offered that perfect touch to a romantic wintery day! It is incredibly clean, very well decorated and very well stocked. We arrived to a fridge stocked with cava, chocolate, eggs and milk, which was such a nice touch. My little instagram account wend crazy with all the small decorative touches in the house.
Bed:
Very comfortable. Linen was great, very warm and there were extra pillows and blankets available. Well stocked with towels etc.
Bathroom:
Very clean. Great shower with good pressure. Lovely space, hairdryer available, heated towel rails and good light.
Kitchen:
My favourite space in the house. So beautifully designed and sucha clever use of space. Where cooked every meal in the house and loved having the doors open to the balcony with the sound of birds and the crisp fresh winter air coming in. So well stocked, complete with an oven, dishwasher, stove top, coffee machine, juicer and all the utensils you need! (Good knives too, for those passionate wanna be chefs- like me!)
Check in/Communication:
Neil and Julie were incredibly communicative and very kind with our constantly changing check in times. It was so easy to check in and out and Julie was very kind with her recommendations in the area.
I loved staying here as you can probably hear and would highly reccomend it as a romantic getaway for couples or two friends looking for a retreat!
Thank you Neil and Julie!
