The larder and the decorative elements in the bathroom and lounge have been handmade by the owner with tea wood, which is the name of the wood taken from the heart of the Canarian pine tree. The house is cosy and fully equipped and ideal for spending a pleasant and peaceful holiday in a rural environment.From the large terraces you can contemplate the beautiful sea views and on clear days you can see the other islands of Tenerife and La Gomera.
