LAS CASAS DE LORENZO, house rentals in Andalucia
Casa de las Piedras
I named this house for the two ancient millstones at its door, which I found in the Valley of the Mills not far from the village. It stands across the plaza from the Casa de la Parra, also in the Arrabal quarter. As you approach it from the Solana quarter below, you can see how it is perched on an outcropping of whitewashed rock, tall and narrow like a Tibetan monastery.
On the ground floor, with its time-worn paving stones, there is a dining room with fireplace and brick-covered table, hand-built atop an ancient orza, a jar for preserving pork; a kitchen with two windows overlooking village and mountains, equipped with electric cooker, water heater, microwave, toaster and double-door fridge; a bathroom with shower, washing machine and steam iron.
The lower terrace overlooks the Solana quarter and the hills, and there is an upper terrace which also faces the south. Each of the three double bedrooms has sculpted bed, desk and cupboard, and its own window with a view. And above the house looms our Moorish castle and Renaissance church, La Villa...
