The Experience
The eccentricity of the house (its surprising layout, its nooks and crannies, its steps up and down) seems in perfect keeping with this little riverside village. And even in August it isn’t too busy with tourists, mainly locals. Spanish on one side, Portuguese on the other. Casa Verde’s covered patio is a blissful place to be as you watch the boats float up and down; find a leafy inner courtyard too, a terrace among the rooftops, a sunbathing deck and a private plunge pool. There’s also an outdoor cinema with a good choice of DVDs.
River boating, kayaking and swimming are the activities here -and a zip wire across the river, from one country to the next! Sporty friends and families with older kids will adore it. Inside: comfortable sofas, a well-equipped kitchen and a dining room with an outdoor fire.
Fresh flowers welcome you, along with coffee, tea, oranges, wine, cake, and logs for the fire.

What a wonderful house and location! We enjoyed the summer we never had in Scotland with temperatures of 18 degrees throughout the week and brilliant sunshine! The house is very well equipped - we miss the orange juicer already! The bed was luxuriously big and cosy and the living room was a perfect place to spend our Xmas afternoon lounging around and playing board games! Can't wait to come back soon! Many thanks!

Fantastic holiday home in a lovely area. Lots to see and do, the cottage was very well equipped and the plunge pool and air con were fantastic as it was very hot whilst we were there. The boat was amazing as we could nip over to Alcoutim for a larger variety of restaurants. The kids loved the outdoor cinema with the big bean bags and the giant Jenga set. The different terraces provided everyone with a space to chill out and truly relax. Being just on the border with Portugal gave us lots of opportunities to explore. Would highly recommend.

A really great holiday house which we enjoyed as a couple but a group or extended family would also enjoy as there are 3 terraces so always an escape available ! Unfortunately we were unable to use the boats as my husband had a bad back during our stay but that would afford more fun and escapism. Bar with food 2 minutes walk and in Alcoutim on the opposite bank more restaurants and a delightful river beach where you can swim and bar with delicious barbecued sardines. Paddle boarding etc available in the season and highly recommend the zip wire. Jak the housekeeper was an absolute star.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in the heart of the charming white village of Sanlúcar de Guadiana with its cobbled alleyways and riverside jetty. The house sits in a prominent position looking across the river to the Portuguese village of Alcoutim. Borrow the owner's boat if you have a license, zip wire over, or call the 'on demand' ferry. Within a five-minute walk there are shops, a bakery and three restaurants.
Local points of interest from Val Woodhouse
- The lovely river Guadiana which winds its way between Portugal and Spain, is always changing, always moving and is a place to dream as you bob down the river in our dinghy or in a kayak. Or go for a swim at the village pool, just a 5 minute walk away.
- Climb up to the castle in the village for the most fantastic view, and then take the thrilling ride on the zipwire across to Portugal. Better still you arrive there 59 minutes earlier than when you left!
- Enjoying a drink - particularly a gin and tonic (they are huge!) - at the beach bar in the village and trying some of the tasty tapas whilst watching the reflections on the water. Very cool!.
- Staying in March and November and finding that it is so warm that a T-shirt is still enough to wear even outside at 11 o'clock at night!
- Ambling down the river path to the finca, picking the oranges and filling a big bag, to then walk back, squeezing them to make juice and ice-cream. Very very satisfying.
- Finding one of the many fiestas taking place in the village, watching the donkeys race through the narrow streets, barbeque of sardines and a dance with the locals. Or watch the Virgin del Carmen statue cross the river and back. That is special, indeed

Introducing
Val Woodhouse
Val and her husband are sailors and divide their time between Portugal and the Isle of Skye.
What a place! Sanlucar changes one's image of Spain, a real village with shops and cafes in an interesting area. And Portugal is only a ferry, dinghy or zip-wire trip over the river. Plenty of activities are available in the area and most villages have good authentic restaurants. Casa Verde is a jewel in this enchanting place. It is a well appointed property full of nooks and corners, courtyards, terraces and an open air cinema creating relaxing and interesting spaces. Each bedroom is comfortable and has its own bathroom.
