Luxury Villa, Situated In Tranquil Setting, Private Pool, Shared Tennis Court

This charming property is quite unique, a single storey, low build villa nestled along a hilltop plateau. Villa accommodates 8 adults with a guest bed on request for an extra child, baby cot is also available. .Its prestigious position is in a residential area known as La Parata. It has outstanding sea and mountain views. As one of the original villas, it has been constructed with larger than average rooms each with double aspect windows allowing directional breezes to flow throughout the property. The four bedrooms are situated on the northern side of the villa surrounded by an established garden helping keep the property cool in the hot summer months. Air conditioning and ceiling fans are also in situ. There are two undercover outside terraces, one looking towards the sea and across to the swimming pool terrace - this has been set up as a dining area with a table that accommodates 8 people. During the day the terrace enjoys complete shade. The second terrace is south facing, which welcomes the sun in the winter months and an evening relaxation as the sun disappears over the mountains during summer. The swimming pool terrace is on a lower level and accessed by steps. Low wicker armchairs for seating 8 persons, glass top tables, plant filled terracotta pots and a barbecue tucked away to the side are the furnishings. This terrace is accessed from the lower swimming pool terrace and the dining room through double glass doors, it boasts magnificent views of the Sierra Cabrera mountain range along with an archaeological site of a 'bronze age' village. The outside terraces are quite private, they are not overlooked.

The interior has been furnished with antiques, prints and paintings and yet left quite minimal.

The utility area houses a large bottle chiller along with the washing machine, dryer, ironing board, iron and clothes drying rack. The master bedroom is simply furnished with a bronze head and foot rail bed with vi-spring mattress, an armchair, chest of drawers and plenty of wardrobe space. The view of the sunrise from this room is quite spectacular! The ensuite is fitted with Carrera marble, it consists of a bath with hand shower, heated towel rail, vanity unit with shaver socket, hairdryer and a walk in glass enclosed shower. All other bedrooms are equally furnished to the same standard and the bathrooms have all been recently updated with marble, modern shower enclosures and bathroom fittings.

Three bedrooms have their shower/wc ensuite and the remaining bedroom has the shower/wc close by in the hall way.

The pool terrace is conveniently situated on the south side of the property achieving maximum sun. There are also mature pine trees that give partial shade. 8 sun beds can be comfortably placed around the pool and there is a poolside shower. A wire work table and 4 matching chairs can be positioned in several places (according to sun or shade), and there is a built in banquette seating area with cushions. Sun parasol is provided.

Long awaited holiday (originally planned for 2020). The villa is lovely. Fabulous location with gorgeous views to the sea. Well equipped, choice of terraces to suit the heat/sun and pool to cool down. Loved it, wasn't disappointed in any way and worth the wait.

Best time ever!
We just came back from our holiday at Casa La Noria and we were so sad to leave. The house, the views(!!!), the pool, the location were all perfect. We had great communication with Rosemary and it was great to meet you mid way through the holiday! First the house - it’s so lovely. The bedrooms were all spacious and the linens were gorgeous. The bathrooms wonderful, especially the tub for my daughter who needed to soak after too much sun and salt. We loved the many outdoor terraces for breakfast, lunch and aperitifs. I think we ate lunch there every day. The pool and pool deck were fab! We didn’t want to leave and go to the beach. But we did - the beaches are close, in abundance and great. The kitchen was perfect for cooking at home, once we Americans sorted out how to works things :) and had all the essentials. Including the lovely wine fridge! The views might have been my favorite thing. I woke every morning to see the moon set over the mountain and the sun rise over the sea. We even had the best view of the Lunar eclipse. We had friends up for cocktails one evening and watch the moon rise up over the sea. Amazing! We truly had the best time and didn’t want to leave. Thank you Rosemary for sharing your home!!!

What a beautiful place! We couldn’t fault this villa or the hosts. A wonderful week was spent mostly chilling out, swimming, eating and laughing. The views from the villa are amazing, breakfast on the little seating area near the kitchen was the perfect start to the day. Thank you!

Absolutely delighted...
We have just returned from the most wonderful holiday at Casa La Noria which is perfectly placed in the gorgeous setting of La Parata. The villa is spacious, well equipped and gives you a choice of terraces in which to enjoy the sun or shade throughout the day. The views are stunning and the pool a perfect size. Most of all, the beds are sooooo comfortable...a must for me! We will definitely be returning. Thank you Rosemary for making us feel so very welcome.

This is a lovely holiday house.
If you want a spanish style house with plenty of space with sun and shade this will meet the criteria. I took my family of 6 adults plus three children age 7 months to 4 1/2 yrs Four big bedrooms each with there own style. Two with single beds which our hosts made into doubles at our request. Three bedrooms with ensuite with a fourth bathroom next to the one without. There are steps throughout the property as it is on different levels but these were no problem for the kids or adults. The living room remains cool during the day but has air conditioning if required. The is an indoor and outdoor dining area. We used the outdoor one apart from one evening when we ate late. This has lovely views over the pool area and the sea. It also has steps to pool area with a wooden stair gate that can be secured there. There is another patio Which we used on the evenings with views over the mountain. It also has steps down to the pool area which we used most of the time. There was no gate here but The children were able to manage these safely. I was concerned about the pool as it is about 3ft deep going to about 7.5 feet. But my grandson who can’t swim was happy playing in it with his floats but always supervised. Pool towels were provided along with room towels which saved us luggage weight. You will need beach towels. We took a paddling pool for the youngest. The kitchen is large and fully stocked with all you properly need. There are three fridges, one just for drinks one with a freezer. A Dishwasher plus a washing machine. we cannot complain of the support and help from the owner. Any problem we had, ie; one with showers and one with dishwasher were fixed the same day with no hassle. If you think of anything and wonder if it is available or can I do this, ask the question they are Very friendly hosts with plenty of offers to help. Foot pump provided for our blow up pool toys, even providing extra toys. Owners rating 11/10 if I could. The villa is up on the hill at la Parata overlooking Mojacar. But I wouldn’t walk it with children as the roads are winding and narrow. In fact you need to be reasonable fit to walk to Mojácar especially on the way back as it is hilly, but with hire cars it’s no problem, A Resturant and residents pool is near by within walking distance but if anyone has difficult walking, the walk back up the hill may be too hard. In a car it about 1-2 mins away. This restaurant provided a lovely menu.

Heavenly we couldn't have wished for a better place to spend a weeks break in Mojacar
We arrived to a heavy down pour and hailstones!!!! Fortunately the villa didn't disappoint. Located midway up the mountain with views of the sea below and mountains above, lovely location, quiet and private. Fantastic sunrises from our bedroom and veranda. The villa was well equipped, comfortable, stylish and well furnished. When the sun did come out there was plenty of garden furniture set up around the garden and verandas for you to follow the sun and relax with a glass or two of Rioja. Shea's Restaurant at La Parata is lovely, just a 5 minute walk if you don't mind hills. But most of the time we cooked at the villa as it was so well equipped and the Spain supermarkets were only a 10 minute drive down the hill into Mojacar Playa. We couldn't have wished for a better place to take a break and decided to extend our stay for another 5 days. Plus we are already planning our next break here. This is the first time we've rented a villa and found the whole process to be easy. The owner Rosemary Bentley returned emails speedily and took our calls. We'll definitely do it again. The only negative was the weather as it was way colder than usual for January so the pool was just too cold to use, but the log fire was lovely and cosy. Kim & Phil Kent UK

A relaxing holiday in a location that was perfect for our family.
The villa has a nice traditional Spanish style but it includes contemporary features such as modern bathrooms, a well equipped kitchen, air conditioning and TV. The wifi is aviailable but could be faster and more consistent. The swimming pool area is picturesque with lovely mountain views and an outdoor shower. Garden trees around the property provide some shade but another umbrella for the poolside area would be a benefit. Overall we were very happy with the villa and its location, as La Parata is delightfully quiet but only a short distance from the main tourist strip, beach and Mojacar town.

Pluses and a big minus
Our seven day stay at La Noria had many pluses and a big minus. The villa was perfect for our family of 6 and had a great view from the Eastern terrace. We enjoyed the comfortable living area with its fireplace and were happy to have a table to seat eight. The kitchen was acceptable and the pool was lovely to look at. Our stay was marred by the lack of sufficient power. We had to continually flip the breaker for the first two days in order to maintain minimal appliances and heaters. Apparently there had been storms the week prior to our arrival, but at least 5 days of dry weather occurred before we entered the villa. Our relatives who own a villa in Mojacar did not have any such trouble and they were present during these dates. We were told by the manager/helper that an electrician would be over to check things out the second day, but that did not occur. Several of us took cold showers and we could not use the oven to prepare our dinner. While in Granada for an overnight stay, the electrician came and upon our return the power issues were much better. The owner's husband was quite apologetic after we returned from Granada, but that was a bit late. The bedrooms continued to be cold, but we honored the advice given and did not turn up the thermostats. I would encourage the owner to add rugs to the bedrooms if the villa is to be rented in the winter. Cold floors are not expected in a villa of this level. I would imagine that a warmer month would be ideal for this rental. A Partially Satisfied Visitor

Perfect Villa
Having visited Mojacar for the past 15 years we thought we had seen most types of accommodation in the area. that is until we stayed at Rosemary's villa. The views were fantastic, the kitchen, dining area's. bedrooms, lounge and the parking were all first class. The villa was spacious and very comfortable. the kitchen was very well equipped with everything you would require to make any type of meal. We had a wonderful stay, and with eight of us, there was room for all. I would recommend this Villa to anyone who likes a bit of luxury without spending s complete fortune.

Très bien !
La maison est spacieuse et parfaite pour deux couples et quatre enfants. Elle est bien équipée et dispose de tous les éléments nécessaires pour passer un bon séjour (barbecue à charbon, piano de cuisson, réfrigérateur, congélateur, lave-vaisselle, lave-linge et sèche linge notamment). Les propriétaires, qui occupent la villa voisine, sont disponible et répondent très vite en cas de besoin. La vue est magnifique et la piscine et parfaite pour se rafraichir et jouer dans l'eau avec les enfants. La piscine fait de 160cm à 180cm de profondeur et le seul accès se fait par une échelle. Elle n'est donc pas forcément idéale pour des enfants en bas âge, des personnes ne sachant pas nager ou encore des personnes ayant des difficultés à se déplacer. Noter également que l'accès à internet était un peu capricieux durant notre séjour. Prévoir un forfait mobile si vous avez impérativement besoin d'un accès réseaux.
