Spain

Patricia

Patricia is a wonderful host and is very welcoming. She kindly cooked for us when we arrived late from our flight from barajas. The house is easy to get to with very detailed instructions and both hosts are really genuine and kind people.  The house is the best furnished I have ever been to and has everything you could wish for to cook at home. The village is small but cute and doesn't lack for bars or fresh bread in the morning. Being close to Madrid meant the holiday was both cultural and shoppeRd delight with an easy bus service close to the house. We really enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to going back next year, if Patricia let's us!

My husband and I have been lucky enough to enjoy holidays in apartments in four of the worlds five continents and have our (for fun) Top Ten list. Our criteria are, we're it is, does it match the given description, and the welcome and hospitality of the owner.
The Yellow House is now in that Top Ten list!
The welcome we were given by Patricia, our owner hostess, was outstanding. She was both charming and helpful throughout our stay she is a special lady. 
The apartment is comfortable and has just about everything one needs in terms of equipment and the garden and pool provide a peaceful and relaxed setting. The surrounding area is mountainous, and Madrid is within easy reach even by bus. We had our own car with us and we would recommend the use of a car to other visitors to fully appreciate the many other tourist sites in the area. (Skiing is also possible locally in the winter).
We were very sorry to leave after our stay and hope to return to this little bit of heaven.

This is our second time at The Yellow House, and we can't recommend it highly enough.  It is a wonderful taste of Spain in a beautiful area, close to Madrid but cool in the summer.  The owner is so helpful and enjoys sharing local knowledge and great suggestions of where to go and what to eat.

it is a great  house in a very quiet environment. The pool area and garden are so nice you dont feel to go out!
It is equipped with all you may need as if you were in your own home. Also its full of useful details (bath staff, ironing, washing, express coffe machine ,childrens cutlery...) and its perfect for kids with many toys for them  (lego, puzles, games for all ages, water guns, cot linen,...)
The owner runs it excellent and you feel sincerely welcome everytime.
Good choice!!

Family from Madrid, Spain

We had a lovely stay at the yellow house. We were a family of four with two young girls and Patricia, the owner, went out of her way to make sure everything was right. The house is situated next to the mountains within a peaceful village with plenty of restaurants and bars a short walk away. Visiting Madrid is easy and theres plenty of sites to see close by. The house had everything and more than we needed and the big garden and pool is great for kids. We would happily come here again. The extra touches Patricia added were the icing on the cake.

Family from Baldock, United Kingdom

The owner Patricia was extremely welcoming without being intrusive. Having a lovely fresh meal prepared for our arrival really helped us relax straight away. She had added lots of little extras that meant we didnt want for anything when we got there either. The location is great for exploring the surrounding mountains as well as central Spain and a handy distance to supermarkets, buses and local town.
Patricia is an animal lover with chickens cats and rabbits making it a very homely destination. 
Felt very welcome , relaxed and away from the great London rush. Would visit again !

Family from South Mimms, United Kingdom

This apartment is ideally situated on the edge of a friendly village, with bars, restaurants and shops in easy walking distance. The host is incredibly helpful, with nothing being too much trouble - including arranging an emergency trip to the dentist on the day of our arrival! The pool was fantastic and the apartment was very well equipped for our stay, accommodating our family with ease. The bus stop to Madrid at the end of the road proved very easy to use, and the bus trip into the city is very interesting and takes about an hour - it doesnt break the bank either. The mountains are beautiful and easily reached from the apartment, with some lovely (but steep) walks. The weather was great most of the time without being overly hot - good use was made of the pool. The cats and hens were an added bonus for our boys! Overall a wonderful stay in Spain and definitely good value for money. Thank you Patricia for making it a memorable holiday, we were all sad to leave.

Family from Plymouth, United Kingdom

What a wonderful place to stay. Patricia  was a wonderful host. On our arrival she made us a salad, ham, fish and gave us a bottle of wine.  She also made us Bean stew, home made cake, jam along with a big bowl of fruit. My wife has tried to make the stew when we got home. Didnt taste the same for some reason? 

Accommodation was great and the shower brilliant once you got the hang of working it. Beds comfortable and cool.

My Grand daughter loved the cats especially tiddles. The hens as well. She is nearly 20 months and her vocabulary growing. We live in a small village with no noise. Just like the Villa. So peaceful after our hectic weekend at my sons wedding. We were all able to relax. Shopping is an easy walk away. Lovely small village with a picturesque centre. Really charming. 

We visited loads of place which were in easy reach. A shopping market made the  price for food great. Not the tourist rates as we found in some areas.

In all as a family we could not rate the hospitality and accommodation highly enough. Age ranged fro 20 months to 84 years.(The mother in-law.)

Thank you Patricia for making our stay so welcoming.

I am sitting writing this as the rain comes down from the heavens. Wish I was back at the Villa.

May I make one suggestion for people visiting this area that they have a GPS unit. For the first time we had one and it made things so much easier. We went out not using it in the day and when we wanted to come home switched it on and it took us right back. No more Why cant you read the map??!!!!!

 From Annan, United Kingdom

What a wonderful spot for a relaxing Spanish break.  The village is well-connected for cultural visits to Madrid, Segovia and Avila, plus it is on the edge of a beautiful mountainous nature reserve - ten minutes from the apartment by car.  From the apartment you can take a short ten minute walk into the village, where there are friendly locals and plenty of excellent local facilities.  Our welcome to The Yellow House by the owner was exceptional with plenty of information on what to see and where to go, and the apartment was extremely well-appointed.  Everything was very clean and carefully prepared, with fabulous facilities like washing machine, clothes line, dishwasher and microwave for our exclusive use.  The pool was breathtaking and thel large garden immaculate.  We could not have had a better holiday and we would recommend The Yellow House unreservedly.  We had four children with us and the owner was incredibly accommodating, for which we were extremely grateful.

 From Coventry

We stayed in the yellow house for 8 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was lovely, very clean and well equipped. When we arrived the owner had kindly left us a welcome package of cava, fruit and biscuits. The gardens are beautiful and well cared for and it was lovely sitting out in the evening as it was extremely peaceful. The local village is less than a 10 minute walk with many bars and some restaurants. We drove into Madrid several times during the week and you are in the city centre in about 40 minutes. The owner lives upstairs and is lovely, she keeps to herself and you dont see her much but she is there to help if you need anything. I would definitely recommend the apartment.
