An off-grid retreat; embrace a slower pace of life at this peaceful, characterful home. Surf, cycle and walk then stargaze in utter peace

Mornings here are slow and all the better for it - you have basic supplies in the kitchen and local eggs to scramble. If you want herbs, head outside to the rock garden and pick them yourself.

Surf, bodyboard or kitesurf at nearby Famara Beach - the overlooking cliffs are spectacular and it is easy to see why folk flock here. When you’re beached out take a trip along the Volcano Route through the Timanfaya National Park and marvel at this reserve made entirely of volcanic soil. If rain makes an appearance there’s plenty of space indoors to stretch out; stoke the wood-fired oven, gather round the piano or help yourself to a book and curl up. You've the site to yourselves so the peace is uninterrupted. 

Share a meal outdoors in the former camel shed - they’re no longer residents and the view reaches out to the sea with La Graciosa island visible in the distance.

Punti d'interesse locali da
Vincent Dean:

  • This lovingly restored property of over 200 years old, situated in one of the most beautiful parts of the island with amazing views across the natural reserve on to the mountains and cliffs of Famara with the sea and other smaller islands in the distance
  • The house is full of charming features and detail which gives you the feeling of being in your own home. The walls are of stone, the floors thoughout with teracota and ceilings in beautiful wood. Most of the furniture is antique, a collection of many years
  • The house has plenty of areas to relax, including a large lounge and dining area complet with a piano. Outside there are lots of private sitting and sunbathing areas, there is a raised secluded garden area surrounded by a rockery with herbs and plants.
  • You can enjoy your own planetatium in the sunken garden, with no photo pollution the star nights are spectacular. The covered terrace for evening relaxation is also another cosy area to enjoy or for morning breakfast the camel house with breathtaking views
  • From the house you can walk or cycle along the sandy tracks for miles without even seeing a car, where you will see the tremendous variety of bird life including the bastard, stone curlew, tabobo and cattle egret amonsts many others that live in this area.
  • This property is unique, located in the middle of Lanzarote making easy access to other interesting points of the island. Where peace is the norm and where you will be made to feel at home with a host to make sure that your holiday has everything you wish.
