Comments - September 2011 - August 2012


“After visiting the village for more than 20 years – and staying in many different houses – we are delighted to have, at last, found the one we shall always return to.  Many thanks.”
Danny and Pat Boyle, Broxburn, Scotland, September, 2011.

“We loved staying in your wonderful house!  Maybe next time we can stay for longer.  We will definitely recommend The Torrox Townhouse to all our friends back in the UK!  Lots of love.”
Mona and Toby, Brighton, September, 2011.

“Pour nous, vieux amis de TORROX, quelle surprise de découvrir ce palais, avec sa décoration originale et néanmoins sans apprêts – Mais le plus important, c'est que ici ...une chose que n'a pas de prix: l'intelligence du coeur.....merci Ernesto, merci Julio.”
Hélène Quintanilla.
“Una vez más tengo la suerte de encontrar amigos que aman la naturaleza y la respetan.  Yo y mi familia nos vamos contentisimos.  Estoy a vuestras órdenes en Paris y Peru.”
Alberto Quintanilla, Paris, October, 2011.

“From the bunch of international, Russian speaking, slightly crazy people, great big thanks from the bottom of our hearts for wonderful house and hospitality.”
Lev, Julia, Irika, Georgi, Scotland, Germany, Russia, December, 2011.

“Thank you so much for your outstanding hospitality during out two weeks here.  Christmas/New Year/our birthdays couldn't have been more special.  Your lovely home and your extensive knowledge, great tips, and lovely walks made our holiday so delightful -  Julio many thanks for the cooking lessons!  We will be back to visit you again.”
Janet and Rob, Germany, January, 2012.

“Thank you very much for letting us share your beautiful apartment, with the fantastic views, home from home feel. This is my sixth visit to Torrox but my family's first.  My husband loves the relaxed feel and the friendly people of Torrox.  Would love to visit again, feel very lucky with the weather in February!  Would recommend to other people.”
Paula and Dave, February, 2012.

“Thank you for letting me and Claire stay in your beautiful house.  The view is amazing and we have enjoyed sitting here drinking wine.  I hope to stay here again one day.  Lots of love from sunny England.”
Lilly and Claire, April, 2012.

“Thank you for our stay in your excellent apartment.  You have thought of everything.  We love the lamps, the balcony, the courtyard, etc.  Everyone on the art holiday was jealous!  We enjoyed going to Frigiliana and El Acebuchal where we had a late lunch today of home-made bread, salad, chicken and pork curry and home-made lemon ice cream.  We borrowed their pool to cool off.  The road to it was rather scary – here is the route should others want to find a little piece of heaven.”
Ann, David, Blacko, Nelson, Lancashire, May, 2012.

“Thank you so much for your hospitality and letting us share your lovely home.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate returning to see you both again.”
Sylvia, Craig, Alison and Kieth, May, 2012

We have had a wonderful holiday here in the Patio apartment.  A fantastic way to celebrate out 25th wedding anniversary – we will always remember it.  We are so glad to have discovered Torrox pueblo and your townhouse.  Who knows we may even end up moving to the village so we will be your neighbours!  Thanks for a lovely stay and for being such wonderful hosts.”
Nicola and Dave, Huddersfield, May, 2012.

“After days of walking in the mountains to the north (and east and west), it was wonderful to be able to come home, to rest and relax.  Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality and for sharing your home and knowledge with us.  Already planning the next trip.”
Terry.

“Thank you! I could not have wished for a better place to stay on my return visit to Spain (40 years later)  The house and you were warm, welcoming and it was wonderful staying here! “Hala gahle” (Zulu and it is the usual farewell greeting and means”Stay well.”)
Sue, South Africa, June 2012.

“Thank you for another wonderful holiday in your beautiful home.  We enjoy exploring Andalucia and its great to come home to La Casa de la Inquisición.  The peace, the views, the lovely house and your welcome!  Thanks again.  P. S. We'll  be back if you'll have us!
Kathryn and Richard, Worcestershire, June 2012.

“Thank you once again for the most wonderful fortnight.  Two weeks of doing nothing in the most beautiful surroundings has never been so enjoyable.  Only 50 weeks until our arrival in 2013!”
Carol and Martin, Hitchin, July, 2012.

“How lovely to come out to see you both for Ernest's birthday.......I always adore being here as I am so conscious of the history of making this paradise of a mansion. Ernest and Julio you have created an art work of such astounding class and to share it even for three days is such a joy.”
John, London, July 2012.

“We would like to thank you sincerely for a wonderful week in your lovely home.  It was exactly what we hoped for and more.  We would also like to thank you for allowing Debbie to sample your home made wine.  There is no doubt that we will be returning to “The Torrrox Townhouse” sooner rather than later.
Lee and Debbie, July, 2012.

“Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality, you made us feel so welcome.  Getting to meet you both made us realize that we are doing the right thing in buying our little holiday home, although we didn't need much persuading!!  Looking forward to seeing you in the near future!”
P.S. We loved the wine!”
Debbie, Martin and Sam, Newbury,Berks, July, 2012.

“Thank you for making us feel so welcome.  What an amazing house...I will miss the view!  And a personal library too!  I don't know where to begin, but this holiday has done us all the world of good.   We went to Nerja, wonderful little shops and restaurants, and stunning beach.  We had great days at Torrox Costa with Oscar (aged 8) and we visited the Nerja Caves upon your recommendation plus Frigiliana (Wow!) and then drove to El Acebuchal – a nerve racking drive but so worth it.  We stopped by a mountain stream on route to cool our feet and take in the stunning mountain views.  I could go on and on but needless to say we will be back!”
Adrienne, Mark, Gráinne and Oscar, Dublin, August, 2012.
