Very relaxed holiday
The reason this is entitled "very relaxed holiday" is because the villa was exactly as described on the website and as described by previous reviewers. Also nothing was too much trouble if we needed anything. Although we havent any young children this villa would be ideal as there is plenty of garden space for playing (and safe). Found the kitchen ceramic top rather complicated and we had some unusual meals! which were still very nice. There is an Italian retaurant just up the road and just minutes away which was very reasonable considering the standard of food and the attention of staff, which we would thoroughly recommend. At the moment I cannot see us returning in the near future as I am awaiting an operation but maybe in the future.................? I would really recommend this villa. Thank you, Karen, Ian and Chris from the Westlakes.

Zeer comfortabel vakantiehuis
Er is een complete inventaris in het huis, extra beddengoed en handdoeken zijn aanwezig. Bij aankomst was het huis schoon en er was een aangenaam welkomstpakket aan boodschappen in de koelkast. Het zwembad is heerlijk koel en wordt schoongehouden. Het contact met Ian is fijn en bij vragen word je bericht binnen een paar minuten beantwoord. Wij hebben een heerlijke vakantie gehad. Ook aan de kleine dingen zijn gedacht om je verblijf zo comfortabel mogelijk te maken, wij waren bijvoorbeeld erg blij met de handdoeken,parasols en koelbox die we mee konden nemen naar een dag aan het strand. Als ik een klein minpuntje moet benoemen zou het 2 vlaks kookgroep zijn, dit was soms even lastig bij het koken . We hebben een heerlijke vakantie gehad!

Villa Lorca
My family and I enjoyed a beautiful 2 weeks in Ian’s & Karens stunning villa! They were both so helpful and assisted us no end when we experienced some issues regarding our hire car, which meant poor Karen had to be in the phone for 5 hours one day to translate everything to us! They couldn’t have done enough for us. The villa itself is wonderful! The children loved the pool, hot tub and crazy golf pitch. A car is certainly an essential, as we ended up not having a car for the first part of the holiday, which probed doves difficult. But again, Karen and Ian gave us a lift to the large shopping centre about 10mins away so we could do a supermarket shop etc. We couldn’t be more grateful! We hope to come back soon :)

Sommer im Oktober
Das Haus war entsprechend den Bildern und der Beschreibung genau so, wie angegeben. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter war super. Leider hatten im Oktober nicht mehr alle Restaurants im Ort offen, so mussten wir in Lorca und Aguilas essen gehen. Der Pool war etwas kühl, aber bei sonnigem Wetter wunderbar. Das Highlight am Abend war aber der geheizte Whirlpool. Einziger Kritikpunkt war bei uns der Kochherd, welcher nur zwei Kochplatten hatte, davon eine ganz kleine. Insgesamt aber ein tolles Haus und ein gelungener Urlaub.

Maison très bien mais avec vis à vis
Maison très bien avec piscine, les hôtes sont très serviables et sympathique +++++. À l'arrivée, le frigo était rempli de certains aliments et c'était très appréciable. Tout y est dans la maison et ça c'est top, on se sens chez nous. Le hic de la maison c'est le gros vis à vis avec les voisins qui nous voient dans le jardin, au bord de la piscine où le jacuzzi, qui n'était pas mentionné dans l'annonce. De plus, nous avons veillé un peu plus un soir et les voisins se sont plaint... Et pour finir, ce qui est dommage c'est finalement la localisation car aux alentours vous n'avez rien à faire, il faut prendre la voiture et faire des km. Malgré tous ces éléments la maison à d'excellentes prestations. Tout dépend de ce que vous recherchez.

Last Minute Holiday
We travelled from UK in our VW Camper van with our Labrador and Springer Spaniel we booked Villa Lorca as a break from the driving. Villa fabulous very secure for the doggies, with all the home comforts provided. The welcome pack was amazing with plenty of food everything from cooked chicken,eggs, bread, milk and juice, beer and wine - we only left the villa once in the week to top up wine and beer. Communication with hosts was great Ian called to check all OK on the first morning. All in all a great stay lovely to have a swimming pool to ourselves we will be back.

Home-from-home relaxing week in the sun
Villa Lorca was prepared beautifully for our stay by Karen & Ian - Thank You! It really was a home-from-home, equipped with just about anything you might possibly need for a relaxing week in the sun. We loved the pool, the mini golf, the awning by the pool (so we could always find some shade), the lovely smelling bedding and towels, the air con, the huge fridge space (with filtered cold water and ice), the washing machine, the washing line, the little shaded seating area off the kitchen, the shaded parking area, the 3 bathrooms (all fabulously clean), the beach equipment (buckets, spades & umbrellas), the pool toys, the amazing welcome pack - which was super helpful after our flight was delayed and we arrived very late in the evening! We enjoyed our visit to Lorca. The weather was glorious, we loved the beach at Calarreona (golden sand) as well as the promenade at Aguilas and Lorca Castle at 7pm - cooler and hardly anyone there, plus a great view at sunset! We found the Carrefour in the shopping centre at Aguilas excellent (although there are plenty of shops nearer). We also enjoyed a nice meal at the restaurant down the road next to Pan Lorca (where you can get fresh bread every morning) . It was called La Fuente - with pizzas and pop all round for just 40 Euros for all 5 of us! 2 relaxed adults and 3 very happy kids - The Davies Family

Amazing Villa
Karen and Ian, thank you both so much for the fantastic 14 days we have just had in your beautiful Villa! We thoroughly enjoyed the use of the pool, hot tub and well equipped kitchen! What a delight to be able to pick fresh fruit straight from the garden! In all our years of holidaying in Spain we have never felt so at home and so sad to leave. You have been by far the most welcoming hosts, and what about the welcome pack! Everything you could need , we didn’t need to go shopping until after the weekend which was a delight after our early morning flight. We hope to be back again, thank you both

Lovely Villa and Pool
We had a wonderful three weeks in this lovely villa. We had a very small issue but, Ian came out the next day and solved it. The best welcome pack we've ever had in any villa we have stayed in over the last 15 years, everything you could imagine from chicken, wine, beer and cheese to butter, bread, melon and bacon. We definitely had enough food for a day or two especially after a long journey! The cold filtered water and ice maker was an absolute bonus. Picking fresh oranges every day and lemons for our G&T sat by the most beautiful pool with great outside space!! Thank you Ian and Karen for being such great hosts :)

Hidden gem
Had a really enjoyable stay at the villa. All mod cons were at our disposal and no expense had been spared to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. While Lorca might be considered slightly off the 'beaten track' in terms of typical tourist destinations its a great base to get out and explore those parts of Spain often neglected. Highly recommend a visit.

Great stay
We had a wonderful stay at Villa Lorca- the location was exactly right for us- quiet and secluded but still within walking distance to the local bar and restaurant and only 20min drive to the nearest beach. The villa itself had a lovely feel- we instantly felt at home and the welcome pack meant we didn’t have to worry about shopping on the Sunday. The facilities at villa Lorca were super, we used the hot tub every evening, the sun beds and poolside were great, giving us privacy and a lovely outside space. We enjoyed eating in the outside dining room and had all of our meals there- again, perfect for what we wanted. Ian and his son Chris were great and sorted out anything we needed to do with the house straight away. The mini golf was a big hit(!) especially with the ‘boys’ (grown men!) who obviously had a Villa Lorca championship! Overall an excellent stay and we have already recommended the villa to friends. Thank you! John and Donna

Great peaceful family break
The Villa delivers on the photos, and Ian and Chris were just terrific. We couldn't figure out one or two things, and one thing needed replacing, all of which they sorted in a day. They really went the extra mile providing a push chair for our three year old and the welcome pack was really good - useful things like shower gel, butter, bread, sandwich, pizza, juice, fruit, wine, beer... Great peaceful remote lo c action as described yet under 10 minutes to a massive complex that hosts a carrefore and whatever other shops you could want, with bowling. Beaches within 25 minutes, we liked playa de la higuerica best, again remote.but with limited services. Lovely pool, golf great fun, long evenings playing cards, loads of great stuff in the pool house to borrow like beach chairs and umbrellas and pool toys. Gas bbq was great. Loads of different places to sit and eat or drink so you could mix it up as to where you want if you didn't want to leave! Lots of sun beds, pool/beach towels, household items. Our next issue is when to book again. This was our first villa in Spain but we have stayed extensively in Greece and France. Ian is the single most attentive host we have had the pleasure of meeting and Chris was very hands on, nothing seemed too much trouble. Karen was fantastic in terms of information. Brilliant villa. Even better hosts.
