Villa Norah Spain

Villa Norah sleeps eight people across four bedrooms. Entering the property on the ground floor, you then drop down, via an exterior staircase, to a lower ground floor. There’s an air-conditioned open-plan living and dining room with exposed wooden beams. This room, much like the rest of the villa, is decorated in a simple modern style with traditional touches. There are two comfortable sofas and a satellite television, as well as access to the main terrace which overlooks the swimming pool. The dining room, with its table and chairs, is next to the kitchen – with fully fitted modern units, and all the appliances you could want. Up on this level are also two double bedrooms, both with air conditioning and a separate shower room with WC.
Heading down to the lower ground floor level, and reached by the exterior staircase, you’ll find a second, smaller kitchen and sitting room. There is also a double bedroom here, as well as a double sofa bed in another room, and a shower room. If you’re travelling as two families, or perhaps with relatives, there’s lots of privacy here away from the main villa – do your own thing in the day, then meet by the swimming pool or on the terrace for early evening drinks, enjoying the wonderful views of the mountains and sea beyond.
Outside you’ll find the swimming pool and terrace – just the place for a refreshing dip. There are sun loungers and a parasol here, as well as a barbecue – so head to nearby Calpe and enjoy shopping in the local market, getting ingredients to cook up a storm back here at the villa.
In Calpe there is the lovely town beach of Playa Arenal, more than one kilometre of fine golden sands and clear waters, its facilities have earned it a blue flag. Calpe is most famous for its spectacular 600m high granite rock on the coastline, Penon de I Fach. A walk around the old town with its narrow streets and pavement cafes is also a must for any visitor to the area.
There are good public transport links from Calpe for those with a sense of independence whilst others may prefer to hire a car to explore some of the more traditional inland villages or less discovered beaches of this interesting and beautiful part of the Costa Blanca. Calpe, four kilometres away from Villa Norah, is a lovely family friendly resort which is popular in the summer. It has long stretches of beach including the blue flagged Playa Arenal, a one kilometre long stretch of golden sand and clear waters backed by restaurants, playgrounds, cafes and hotels. The town is also famous for its spectacular 600m high granite rock on the coastline, Penon de I Fach. A walk around the old town with its narrow streets and pavement cafes is also a must for any visitor to the area.
Keen explorers with a car will love driving north to discover the Benissa coastline. You will find pretty coves, hidden by pine trees and some only reached from the road by foot, ideal for scuba diving or just enjoying the calm, clear waters of this part of the Costa Blanca.
Alternatively, Moraira, at the north-eastern end of this coastline, is a seaside resort popular with Spanish families. It has grown from a fishing village to a pleasant and charming holiday town that has managed to retain much of its Spanish character. It has an impressive marina, great restaurants and the market on Fridays is the perfect place to pick up some local produce to take back to your villa.
The surrounding region is mountainous with beautiful scenery and many traditional villages to explore. The more active holiday maker has a great choice of activity within the area with golf courses, horse riding and a wide range of water sports and other land based activities nearby. The region also has some wonderful walking trails along cliffs, woodland terrain and through rural villages.
