About this cottage rental
Laroya is found over Macale, more than 800 metres high, and on the northern slope of the “Sierra de los Filabres” (mountain range). This is a lovely terracing-shaped small town all over the slope of the mountain. The wonderful view of this white village stands out thanks to the green landscape that surrounds it. It is the smallest town in Almería as it has about 80 inhabitants; perhaps this is the reason why its customs are still the same and their way of life is so slow and peaceful.
“Cortijo el Picachito” (farmhouse) is located at the entrance of Laroya: under it, an olive grove and the river; over it, almond trees, brooms and indigenous vegetation; opposite it, there is a great amount of kermes oaks that are growing more and more and taking control of the mountain. This building is in accordance with the other ones in this area; it is nearly 200 years old and has been restored for rural tourism. Its decoration mixes the beauty and warmth from the antique furniture with the comfort from the modern things.
...And here we are, in such an exceptional environment!: among highly nice landscapes; shrouded by a complete peace; the sun shines almost every day. In “Picachito”, we receive you in a warm and quiet atmosphere and we always respect your pace.
Amenities at Self catering Cortijo el Picachico for 2 people
Estuvimos en la Casa al Revés, acogedora y con una decoración muy divertida, todo muy limpio y cuidado hasta el más mínimo detalle. Nuestra estancia fue breve, de sólo 2 noches, y tuvimos la mala suerte de sufrir nada más llegar una avería en el impresionante jacuzzi de la casita. En todo momento la dueña, Antonia, se desvivió por solucionar el problema, pero como resultó imposible, nos permitió usar también otra casita, en la cuál disfrutamos muchísimo el jacuzzi con nuestra pequeña Gema, y nos compensó con una noche más, que por problemas nuestros de agenda ha quedado pendiente.
También tienen una fantástica piscina muy bien cuidada con unas espectaculares vistas a la sierra, qué también hemos usado bastante por el calor de la época en la que hemos ido.
Nuestra única pega es que nos quedamos con las ganas de probar el menú del restaurante de Antonia ( que también resulta ser el único del pueblo) del que otros clientes tan bien han opinado, ya que cerraban justo los días que fuimos, o de tomarnos alguna tapa en el bar del pueblo (que también es el único y tuvimos la mala suerte de encontrarlo cerrado).
En definitiva, a todos los viajeros recomendamos este precioso cortijo por su encanto y por la amabilidad y simpatía de Antonia y Claudia (hasta la perrita Cuqui resultó ser simpática y nuestro perro Noah quedó prendado de ella), pero sobre todo por la profesionalidad que han demostrado. Un fuerte abrazo y esperamos volver pronto para probar vuestra apetecible carta.

Este es uno de esos sitios en los que la información que obtienes por internet no hace justicia con la realidad. Todo es mas bonito y mejor de lo que te esperas.
Las casas, el equipamiento, el jacuzzi, y sobre todo el trato de Antonia.
Si no vais os lo perderéis. Luego no digáis que no os avisaron

Estuvimos en El Mirador, para celebrar nuestro aniversario.
Tras un recibimiento entrañable, divertido, y "de suspense", nos cautivó la casa. Pequeñita pero con todo detalle. Hemosas vistas, y que decir del jacuzzi. Todo un lujo para celebrar momentos importantes. Por ejemplo, tras hacer el sendero de Los Molinos, un baño en esas aguas tan calentitas es la repera!!... Lo que más nos ha gustado es que lo puedes usar cuando te apetece, en la intimidad y las veces que quieras!!! Por la noche con la cromoterapia es una gozada
Por supuesto también nos dejaron llevar a Lara nuestra perrita.

A pesar que coloqué mi opinión en la página oficial, parece ser que la propietaria o propietario aquellos comentarios que comentan las cosas malas son borrados a pesar que también se mencionen las cosas buenas. Directamente a borrado la opción de comentar tras mi opinión. Como soy muy justa, intentaré poner mi opinión en todas aquellas páginas donde se promocione el cortijo rural Picachico.
Pasé con mi pareja 5 días en la casa C´Antonia y Manuel; A pesar que Antonia es muy simpática y amable al igual que todo el pueblo, si la entrada es a las 19.00 no se puede hacer esperar a unos clientes 30 minutos más y por que mi pareja estaba metiendo "presión", este hecho le quita puntos a su favor, ya que después de 4 horas de viaje en coche lo último que queremos es estar esperando por un servicio que hemos pagado. Al parecer esta situación ha ocurrido más veces como pude leer en los comentarios de su página oficial (aunque repito, tras mi comentario ya no hay posibilidad ni de comentar ni de leer).
Al llegar a la casa, me la esperaba mucho más grande aunque esto es una opinión personal que no aporta mucho XD, la casa cuidada al mínimo detalle y la limpieza en perfecta condiciones.
Lo que ocurre es que te hospedas 5 días en esta casa y por mucho filtro y bromo que se coloquen en el agua, el agua está sucia si no se renueva en los 5 días, en un servicio de hotel como mínimo te la cambian cada día el agua, pero en cinco días sin cambiarla, por dios, un poco de más atención, es algo imperdonable, a parte de eso que en mi opinión es algo bastante grave puesto que la razón de venir a esta casa es el jacuzzi y no otra, es un detalle la televisión delante del jacuzzi.
Otro detalle aunque le doy menos importancia que el agua del jacuzzi, es que en 5 días no renovaron el juego de toallas, otro servicio normal de hotel, apartamento... no pido que nos limpien la ropa ni las toallas de casa pero dios que pagamos un "dineral" y ni siquiera un cambio de agua ni unas toallas...
