Stunning Albaycin neighbor
I had a great time Housesitting in this authentic Albaycin home. Within walking distance of the city centre, yet situated in the village-like Albaycin and close to Sacromonte there are stunning views withing 5 minutes of the house. Great area for walking, exploring this beautiful city, and learning about the history and culture of Andalucia. It is a great area for tapas too! Roisin was a good comunicator and was clear about my responsabilities, which were very few. She was helpful if i needed guidance on how anything worked in the house and made sure i had enough pellets for the stove to stay warm in the winter. I highly recomend this beautiful little house to anyone looking to house sit in Granada.

Granada - In the Albaicin - close to nature
I had a lovely time sitting for Roisin in her authentic Albaicin home. Within walking distance to the heart of Granada and the hills surrounding Durian and i could explore it all. every morning we ventured out to great the sun as within 3 mins we were on the sacred mountain looking over the city. This is where all the pictures of the alhambra are taken. If you like nature and trails this is a great starting point. Each night we roamed the sacred mountain with the best sunset views over the city. Roisin's place is perfect for a person or couple. Placed in the historic Albacine area next too much talked about houses. I recommend taking a guided tour to learn all about the history of the area. And of course to visit the Alhambra as well. Roisin was a great communicator and was helpful if i needed guidance on how anything worked in the house. She made sure i had enough pellets for the stove to stay warm in the winter and introduced me to a few of her friends who were inviting and lovely. I will defiantly be back to visit them again!
