Self-sufficient sustainable country house in the heart of the Cabo de Gata Natural Park. 4km from San José, seaside village with shops, restaurants and famous virgin beaches: Genoveses, Mónsul ... In the lower part of the house there is a semi-detached studio apartment for couples with independent spaces and privacy for all guests except the parking area.
Photovoltaic energy, gas cooker and solar water heaters. Hairdryers can only be used during sunlight hours. There is fine Wi-Fi but poor phone coverage. The last section of access is by a dirt road. Disconnection, sunbathing and starry nights.
