Beautiful Quintas del Bosque villa with hikes, gardens & a place for relaxation.

Let the photos speak for them selves, but here are more details. Up to six people in two accomodations - the two room suite below the main house and the Cob Cottage, a stand alone one bedroom cottage. Our tranquil home in Quintas del Bosque is ideal for couples getaway and adventurers with exotic bamboos, flowers, fruit trees, herbs, coffee and gardens to stroll and sit in while gazing out upon the mountain vistas, where you breathe, do yoga, think, read and relax. Six friends can enjoy the property with two in the Cob Cottage and the remaining four people in two separate rooms in an area designed for guests at the main house. The Cob cottage is two stories. A queen bed with fireplace is down stairs nestled into the 18 inch earthen clay walls. We built this over a 2 year period to be eco-friendly and cozy. Upstairs under the cover of a huge roof is the living space with a hammock, the kitchen and toilet. This area feels like you are in a tree house as it is very open to nature. The second area below the main house for the other 4 friends or family has the master bedroom with a queen bed and the second guestroom has twin bunk beds. These rooms have its own toilet and shower across the hall way. Each of the two areas has its own kitchen, living spaces. They each are fully stocked outdoor kitchen with hot and cold running water, gas stove top, small fridge, and all the utensils, pots and dishes to cook with. In the kitchen that has the two rooms suite, is a gas BBQ grill. Just bring your food. They are undercover and cool with the breeze. If it rains very hard, the outdoor kitchens do get damp but we have options for you in heavy rain. We live on the property in the upstairs part of the main house. Entrances to the guest areas have their own walkway entrances for your privacy. If you need to totally disconnect from TV, loud music and constant technology, then this is the place for you as none is offered. We are within a secured gated mountain development, lush with trees and beauty. This is a break from the hustle and bustle of an over-stimulated world, where you breathe, think, read and relax. Town is a 10 minute drive. This property is NOT suitable for young children as there are steep slopes, walkways and decks with little or no railings. Besides enjoying the gardens, you can walk around the estate following the roads. In the spring we have flocks of parrots. Summer is filled with hummingbird by day and fireflies at night. Air conditioning is not needed. When it's hot there is always a spot to be in the shade or go down to the stream or wander over to the waterfalls. All the bedrooms stay cool. Winter day time temperature is perfect and in the evenings a long sleeve is all you may need. If you love to write, enjoy painting and sketching, play a musical instrument, this is the place to be inspired. Bring your yoga mat and find your perfect spot to meditate. You will have the feeling of being in the mountains. Across the valley you can barely see the other houses. You have total privacy. Jacques is around on the grounds based on what hours you want, so if you need anything, call for him. He you to bring up to the house when you first arrive. Bring books to read, or board games to play. Also bring your swim suites and have Jacques take you out to the two waterfalls. The first is a 20 min hike and the second falls is an addition 45 min. Bring your hiking boots as you can walk more than 3 km of trails starting right from our gardens. They have breathtaking views of the mountains.
