Nestled just below the stunning village of Comares, sits the equally charming and character filled property La Zahurda.
Ref: CR/MA/00821
This stunning property comprises of a Finca and Cortijo located next to each other and set in gorgeous mature grounds with sea views, mountains vista’s and the lovely village of Comares all vying for your attention.
Each of these properties can sleep 6 guests and have been designed to offer a high quality, charming and unique holiday experience for the travellers that would like to experience a beautiful unspoiled area of Andalucia which is practically located to tour the area but also gives tranquillity and space to relax from everyday life.
The gardens are mature, colourful and designed to allow for sun and shade in equal measure and quirky areas lend themselves to guests having their own space to divulge in reading or local research, if though the group wants to be together the lovely 8 x 4m Roman Stepped pool is perfect and in the evening a group game of boules is always appealing in the court below.
The properties are either rented as a whole or in the quieter season maybe one for smaller groups with the other closed off so you still have privacy.
La Zahurda as well as being a superb location for group holidays also lends itself to being a great base for walking, climbing and many outdoor pursuits, plus great for bird watching groups.
The views are an incredible stimulation and natural for painting holidays, writing groups and also cooking courses in a lovely environment are on the agenda.
The owners have a keen interest in introducing this incredible place to all different styles of travellers so please do ask if you have a specific hobby we can help cater for or offer advice.
This property is also located so that although you are in a peaceful location you can also leave the cars on the drive and walk up to the amazing and historic mountain top village in around 15 minutes.
Decent shoes and a good torch are a recommended requirement, though one of these items we can provide !
The house Manager will meet you upon arrival and show you the in’s and out’s of the properties. She lives nearby in the Village and will be on hand during your stay if you require any information or advice.

We have just come back from a 2 week stay at La Zahurda, what a lovely place to stay, 8 of us settled in very well and the views are just incredible, clean and tidy and very welcoming, David handled everything before arrived thoroughly and efficiently and Claire was Brilliant throughout our Stay, the Aquavelis Water Park apx 40 minutes drive is a really good Day out and we paid the 100€ etc for the VIP area which was fantastic as we had a shaded area for all 8 of us as a base all day and could all sit together for lunch nice and cool. Would definitely stay again, Thank You David and Claire for all your help and advice throughout our stay.
Just back from two weeks in paradise. Absolutely stunning Villa. Quality time with family 🌞 Amazing service from David, excellent communication and always prompt reply to queries
Just returned from yet another incredible holiday booked through David and Jacqui (Vine Ridge Retreats)! La Zahurda is a beautiful property consisting of 2 well equipped houses and a fantastic pool from which you can soak in the magnificent views whilst enjoying a relaxing dip. The house manager, Clair provided a warm welcome and was on hand throughout in case of any issues (non to report!). My friend joined for a few nights and all I kept hearing from her was ‘wow’ - it’s safe to say she loved it! We’re now on a mission to persuade the rest of the girls to join us at La Zuhurda next year!!!
Wonderful peaceful house below Comares. Glorious location and just the best panoramic views to soak in either by the pool or when dining on the balcony into the night. David really made sure we had the best house for the time period we had, which was arranged somewhat last minute, and again came up trumps. Housekeeper Clare was great and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay and totally respected our privacy. It really is a beautiful house with lovely grounds and charming character.
This lovely place was suggested as we did not wish to hire cars. It was perfect, we all rested, read, played daft games and thoroughly enjoyed our family holiday. The village was charming and we ate some lovely meals, certainly worth the uphill walk to get there. The support from David,Jacqui and Clair was excellent and thorough. And the properties were beautiful.
David really went the extra mile to choose the right villa for us. Nothing was too much trouble and the liaison between the owners and ourselves was suberb. Would have no hesitation in recommending Vine Ridge Retreats if you want to make sure everything goes right.

We have just returned from 2 wonderful weeks of total relaxation at La Zahurda. Thanks to David and Jacque you've found us an absolute gem this time. La Zahurda is a stunning property with beautiful views to the coast and surrounding area. It has everything you need and more to make your stay comfortable. There's lots of outdoor space with lovely quirky areas to relax and enjoy the ambience and not forgetting the pool. The villa was spotlessly clean and we wanted for nothing. The welcome hamper was a lovely surprise. Clair the housekeeper was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. During our stay the weather was extremely hot for the time of year and Clair told us about a natural spring just up the road which we shared with the goats to refill our bottles 🙂
The beautiful hilltop village of Comares is just literally up the track however the road was closed for new drainage works and so we couldn't walk from the villa. The locals are very friendly and there are a few bars and restaurants which serve very nice food.
All-in Car hire were great as always and very reasonably priced.
We can't wait to return thanks David, Jacque and Clair.

We are just home from a 5 week stay at La Zahurda and couldn’t rate it high enough. When booking David was so helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and he responded so quickly to emails/queries. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Vine ridge retreats.
The houses and grounds are a delight. Super clean, lovely decor and great facilities. Comares is just the best wee town and we fell in love with it. Clair, the housekeeper, was a star.
Fast forward from arriving to leaving.....quite a different world with the coronavirus. Understandably we were concerned about getting home but were reassured by the owners that we could stay as long as need be if our travel was disrupted. It really put our minds at rest and we thank you all for that. We will be back
La Zahurda welcomes you like an old friend – its easy atmosphere, wonderful setting and excellent facilities start to work their magic as soon as you arrive, quickly resulting in a feeling of relaxation, away from the world. We were a family group of 12, staying for three weeks in July, and all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The property has a good size pool and terrace and many separate areas to relax, so we never felt crowded. We would heartily recommend Al Zahurda to groups seeking a peaceful holiday in superb surroundings.
We were 10 people staying here and we all were very happy about the place! The houses are really nice and all over the place there is an amazing view and so many nice small areas were you can sit by yourself and relax.
Its at perfect walking distance to Comares and still far out so there is quitness during the day and night. The pool is lovely and the internet is great.
A place that we would deffiantly go back to soon!!
