About this property

5 bedroom luxury VILLA sleeping 10 furnished and equipped to the highest of standards. Our rental registration Number is VTF/HU/00026
The property overlooks the Nuevo Portil golf course hole 9 and 10 with a private pool and garden. Main building with three bedrooms and two bathrooms plus annex over the Mediterranean courtyard with two bedrooms and bathroom (ideal for older children or grandparents)
Only 15 minutes walk from miles of unspoilt coastline. This Spanish resort is ideal for year round golf and beach holidays.
The Sunday Telegraph on the 24th February 2008 stated ' Huelva has some of the best beaches in Europe' and we agree.
Will rent out main house only that sleeps upto 6 outside peak holiday season, please enquire for rates.

Local area: Within 10 minutes walk of Villa Limonero is a selection of local shops a small supermarket/ bars/restaurants and miles of fantastic unspoilt BEACH. There are larger supermarkets in Punta Umbria and Cartaya(about 15 minutes by car), you will be sent our full local information after booking or please email and I will gladly forward to you by return.

Beach and activities: Nuevo Portil beach is very suitable for young children, as the Fleche del Rompido, protects the beach from the high winds and rough currents of the Atlantic ocean. The beach stretches for 14Km and is backed by juniper woods and sand dunes.
The vast woodland is very popular for activity tourism like rambling, cycling and horse riding. Bike hire and Horse riding are is available locally per hour, half day or all day.
On the road into Cartaya you will also find the Kartodromo de Cartaya (Carting track) open year round and the very popular Aquopolis (water park) which opens normally the middle of June until first week in September.

Places of interest : HUELVA : The most visited attraction in Huelva is Muelle de las Carabelas, a wharf where you can see replicas of the Pinta, Nina and Santa Maria and from which Columbus sailed to discover the Americas. A visit to the Monastery at La Rabida is very interesting this is where Columbus planned his journey.
DONANA: One of Spain’s loveliest national parks and one of the largest dune areas in Europe, it is a World Heritage Site.
SEVILLE: The capital of Andalucia and the seat of the Andalucian Parliament. The truly wonderful city, the Plaza de Toros, the Cathedral and the Giralda tower with amazing views of the city from the top, Royal palace, the Santa Cruz quarter with it’s narrow streets and small squares full of flowers and charm. are all worth a visit. SIERRA DE ARACENA: Villages of white houses set amidst woods of holm and cork oak- above all the best cured ham in Spain known as Jabugo.
EL ROCIO: Famous for the annual Rocio Pilgrimage is a strange outpost of the wild west

SEMANA FANTÁSTICA

Fuimos un grupo de padres al campeonato de España Junior de baloncesto y buscábamos un alojamiento común para convivir y cercano a Huelva y Punta Umbría a ver los partidos. La casa cumplió con las expectativas, acogedora, bien equipada en cocina para organizar comidas o cenas, bien situada, (zona tranquila entre pinares y campo de golf), cerca de las playas y zonas de restauración. La única pega seria, renovar los colchones de las camas y mobiliario. El polideportivo estaba abierto, pero incomprensiblemente no dejaban jugar ni al padel ni al tenis...

Family Break

The property configuration worked well for accommodating three generations comprising 4 adults and 3 children. Five in the main house and two adults in the annex. The villa was clean and well equipped and although only the end of May the pool was well used by all generations. Our host was extremely helpful answering queries very efficiently and the information file at the villa contains a great deal of useful information about the area. The villa is in a peaceful and quiet location and at this time of year it we had no difficulty in finding a table at any of the restaurants in the local area.

Lovely well equipped villa

We stayed in the main house only. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The outside pool area was great. It was a very good base for exploring the area and we would stay here again without hesitation.

Prima vakantie locatie

Such a gem

This house has everything to make you feel at home in a paradise-like setting. Very clean and very comfortable (a special mention for the good mattress). The owners are very attentive and friendly. The pool is gorgeous (the pool shower even has warm water). It's such a pleasure to hang out in the patio or on the terrace. Can't wait to go back there.

Excellent villa

We had a fab family holiday (5 adults, 4 children) at Villa Limonera, it suited all our needs perfectly. The villa is clean, really well equipped and very spacious. We loved the pool, bbq and large outside eating area. The villa is well situated to explore this lovely area. Fabulous long, clean beaches, great wee towns - Cartaya, El Rompido nearby. Also easy to go into Huelva and Seville and well worth it. The kids enjoyed the Christopher Columbus museum with full size replica ships at La Rabida. We had great contact from Jill the owner who will answer all questions and received a lovely welcome from Pam and Gordon at villa. We would go back, fab villa and so much still to see and do. Highly recommend.

Villa el limonero

Lo mejor de la casa el jardín y la piscina, la casa amplia y cumpliendo nuestras expectativas pero el menaje de la casa escaso y los muebles muy deteriorados, el sofá del salón incomodisimo. La ropa de casa escasa, algunas camas no tenían sábana encimera y no han dejado ni un juego de sábanas de más por si ocurría algún percance, solo dos paños de cocina para los cinco días que hemos estado allí. Y ya para terminar, algún colchón debería ser sustituido.

Fantastic location and really excellent property

The property was excellent, well equipped, safe and comfortable for a large family - 8 adults and 2 babies - with all the space to be together and privacy when needed. The location was excellent with forest at the front and golf course behind, situated in a small Spanish town. There are miles of beautiful safe beaches with lots of on beach cafes, forest trails, kayaking etc., with Cadiz, Jerez, Seville within a 2 hour drive away. We will go back and stay here again in the future as we loved it and there is still more to explore, including a trip over to Portugal as the boarder is so close!

Fantastic villa and fantastic customer service!

We spent a brilliant week at the villa. The villa had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay, the owner has clearly thought about all the details to make our stay enjoyable. The pool and bbq/dining area was a real highlight, and our kids, 3 under 5 years old, absolutely loved it as did the adults! What really stood out for us was the customer service and genuine kindness from both Jill the owner and Pam who met us at the villa. They were both so friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond. We would strongly recommend this villa and would definitely come back again!

A large villa in a little known area of Spain

A large well equipped villa on a golf course close to beaches. The villa was well equipped and clean with plenty of hot water. The Pool and gardens were well kept and the outdoor furniture was plentiful. There are many large sandy beaches nearby and they are very clean as it is the Atlantic. There are a number of beach bars to eat in. The area is very popular with the Spanish which is reflected in the restaurants.

Buitengewoon luxe en compleet uitgeruste villa met heerlijk privé zwembad!

Goed onderhouden en zeer compleet uitgeruste villa El Limonero in El Portil. Van alle gemakken voorzien, aan alles is gedacht. Bij aankomst hoeven er alleen maar boodschappen voor levensonderhoud gedaan te worden, verder is alles aanwezig. Genoten van het privé zwembad, de tuin, de villa (+ bijgebouw) maar ook de mooie omgeving en stranden op loopafstand (10 minuten lopen). Veel bezienswaardigheden in de omgeving. Een echte aanrader dus!

An enjoyable and relaxing family holiday!!

We stayed at the Villa for 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute of the holiday. There were 10 of us but never felt as though we were under each other's feet. The annexe was perfect as it meant one family could use that while the rest of us were in the main house. 3 bathrooms and the extra toilet also meant no long waits for a shower. The Villa is very well placed and easy to get to. 10 to 15 minute walk to shops/restaurants and just a little further to the stunning beaches. We were not going to hire a car but did so in the end and glad that we did. Allowed us to travel to large supermarkets for the food. As the area is not a tourist resort this made shopping costs so much cheaper than normal. We played golf a few times and enjoyed the course. Great to stop at your back garden on the 9th to re-srock on refreshments. Between 11am and 5pm you hardly see any golfers go past. Pool was fantastic. Really hot when we went and provided a welcome escape from the heat. Gets the sun most of the day but nice at about 6pm when the shade starts creeping over. Only thing that was frustrating was the power cuts but, if you do what the rules tell you and turn off air-con units when not in rooms then this minmises these instances. Overall, a fantastic holiday and would definitely make a repeat trip.

Lovely villa in a peaceful spot

The house was really lovely, perfect for our needs and very well-equipped. We particularly loved the enclosed courtyard and ate all our meals at the house, there. It was over 40 degrees the first few days so we were very grateful for the air conditioning at night and the generous umbrellas and awnings. The beach is just lovely. It goes on for miles and it is so nice that it is not built up behind it.

Magnifique villa dans une non moins magnifique pinède

Villa très confortable située à la limite du golf de Nuevo Portil . Cette villa possède un corps principal et une annexe reliés par un magnifique patio. Tout est fait pour passer un agréable séjour. La piscine côté golf et sa très grande terrasse sont de nature à prévoir beaucoup de calme et de confort. L'extérieur appelle à composer une cuisine d'été faite de barbecue et d'invitation d"'amis. Très belle maison.

Schön gelegen, aber abgewohnt und schmutzig.

Das Haus ist eigentlich sehr schön, aber eher für 8 als für 10 Personen geeignet. Wir mussten zuerst sämtliches Geschirr abwaschen, bevor wir es benutzen konnten. Allgemein ist Sauberkeit ein Fremdwort. Die Gartenmöbel ( Liegestühle) waren zum grössten Teil defekt und die Kissen sehr schmutzig. Als die Kaffeemaschine den Geist aufgab war das schon sehr nervig. Wir kauften eine Neue, das Geld wird uns hoffentlich zurückerstattet. Insgesamt hat uns vor allem die mangelnde Sauberkeit gestört und die Antwort der zuständigen Person, dass sie bei der Abgabe nicht kontrolliere ob es sauber sei, sondern ob alles vorhanden sei. Ach ja, es gab nur ein Geschirrtuch und einen Putzlappen. Sonstiges Putzmaterial fehlte !

About the host

Hosted by JILL BARRETT

We are a British family from Yorkshire with 2 boys, the photo above is of my boys at Isla Magica in Sevilla, a few years ago now!

Why they chose this property

We purchased 2 townhouses on the Nuevo Portil Golf course in 2003 and soon realised that we wanted a forever home in the area, so chose the plot and build style to suit our family.
We hope one day to make it our home but currently we can only visit in school holidays!

What makes this property unique

Nuevo Portil is a very Spanish and family friendly resort with the benefit of a sandy beach that stretches for miles within 10 minutes walk and a 18 hole golf course.
All that's needed for a golf and beach holiday!
