Reviews - Fruitful Hills Estate Andalucía Southern Spain
10/10 A special place, a great Spanish villa with a breathtaking view, a fruit garden and pool.,
Liked · A fantastic place, also good for extended stays. Great location, a well-equipped studio
Chris, Germany, Solo Traveller, 28 nights · June 2021The place and the people inspire a lot of peace which was what we were looking for. The garden is a paradise only 25 min away from Malaga. The house is completely new and the details are very well thought. The bed is extremely comfortable!!! Andrew and his family were very welcoming and accommodated all our questions. Big thank you!
— Muchas gracias! Michelle and Guillaume (April 2021)A very cleverly designed and very comfortable apartment to stay in on Andrew, Hazel, and Grace's plot of land near Coín. The gardens are beautiful and there is plenty of space to walk and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside while still being close enough to shops and amenities if you need them. It's well located for walks in the nearby Mijas mountains, and just a 30-minute drive from Sierra de las Nieves, where there are also many interesting walks to do. Andrew and his family are on-site and made us feel very welcome indeed, showing us around, giving us recommendations about local places to go to and see, not to mention providing us with oranges and lemons from their trees and eggs from their hens. Thank you very much for a lovely stay!

Elegant period property, decorated to a good standard in a great position in Grassington Grassington is a lovely little town with great pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. There are fantastic views whichever way you look and there are great walks along the banks of the river Wharfe. Fern House is located right in the middle of the town, tucked away off the main street with one parking space reserved for this property.
The rooms are located on the second and third floors, the stairs are very steep but the rooms are very nice and the kitchen and bathroom very modern with everything you would need during your stay.
Very important for us, the property is dog friendly. I would like to think we will make it back and stay here again. Date of stay: October 2018 Walsall, United Kingdom

Could have done with the heating staying on for an hour longer in the evening especially as it was Winter time.Highlight of the stay was dinner at No 5 Grassington House -wonderful food ,pleasant atmosphere and welcoming staff.

Thank you for taking the time to review our property and for highly recommending us. We're sorry we missed out on the top five stars we have received from our other guests perhaps because of your feedback about the heating. Just to clarify... the heating is programmed at 20 C until 11pm and then at 16 C overnight. We are happy to alter these settings, if guests phone or text us at the time, as we have HIVE wireless control. There is also a manual override control on the main landing of our apartment for guests to increase the temperature themselves. We hope that you will stay with us again and we will be able to set the controls for your personal requirements.
Excellent accommodation, excellent location.

Everything in the property was finished to a very high standard and had all the modern conveniences that you would expect. There are excellent shops, restaurants and pubs all within a very short walk.
I'd highly recommend it if your planning a walking trip in the area, we did two over the course of our stay and the local scenery is stunning. We visited several nearby villages on our travels and found them all to be very pleasant, each with it's own distinct character.
We visited primarily for the 1940s weekender, which was great fun! The village effectively became an open air museum and everyone got into the spirit of the occasion. This does lead to my one minor criticism though: We weren't informed that between 9am and 4pm Main Street was officially closed due to the 1940s weekender, which meant that we were unable to leave as initially planned.
All in all an excellent weekend and a location I would highly recommend!

Thank you for taking the time to submit your review.
We're glad you found the apartment so good and the location excellent.
We're sorry that you did not notice our clear description of the steep stairs, typical of a characterful period property in this area, and no promise of enclosed outside garden. We hope your comments will avoid other guests being disappointed by expecting other than we have described. We're happy that you gave us five stars in all other respects.
Fantastic Fern House

The property has a very luxurious feel. As soon as you enter and ascend the stairs you are surrounded by lovely paintings, photos and sketches of the area you are about to explore. The all purpose kitchen provides everything you need and the bathroom is a tranquil place at the end of a long day walking around the dales.
Upstairs to the bedrooms which are furnished beautifully adding a touch of luxury with very comfortable beds and plenty of space.
We had a wonderful stay - thank you very much indeed.

The apartment is wonderfully furnished and spotlessly clean. They even had toys for our kids! Very accommodating also. It's right in the middle of Grassington, but off the main street so very quiet. Grassington itself is very well located and such a cute place! I would highly recommend the apartment.

The property is lovely. Very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed (except a bread bin) and the owners were very helpful. Nice big rooms with high ceilings and light. Much appreciated despite the grey weather! It was great to be so central and the parking is a real added bonus. Highly recommended.

From the booking process to the end of our stay at Fern House, nothing was too much by our kind hosts to endure we enjoyed out time in this delightful accommodation. It's location, standard of furnishing, and well equipped kitchen all added to a wonderful 4 days in Grassington. I cannot recommend highly enough staying at Fern House. We loved Grassington and the surrounding countryside. There is so much to see and do.

What a fantastic holiday home this is. The house is beautifully decorated, very clean and comfortable. A real home from home. The location of the property is ideal for touring and Grassington itself is lovely, the local people were very welcoming. It was our first visit to the Yorkshire Dales and we loved it. We would highly recommend this property, you will not be disappointed.

First real time in the Dales & took a chance with this accommodation, knowing nothing at all about Grassington. All I can say is that we really landed on our feet with this place. The owners had thought of everything to make our stay peaceful and comfortable. The house is just a couple of walk into a beautiful village which has some local amenities and a lovely couple of places to go out for dinner. Thanks again! Andy

Dear Andy
Thank you very much for taking the time to review Fern House which is so helpful for other guests searching for top quality accommodation....yes, and such a few yards short walk from the very heart of the village with all its attractive amenities. We hope to welcome you again some time.

Grassington 1940's weekend 2015
5/5 Stayed Sep 2015

We arrived on Friday 18th September, having booked for 3 nights to participate in the 1940's weekend which is held on a yearly basis. There were 4 in our party, and the house was ideal for our needs, being located right in the village, and with it's own private parking space.
(A major drawback of all 1940's festivals, is that once available accommodation in and around an event is booked, you have to look further and further away from the area. This, of course means extra expense for buses, trains, taxis, parking charges etc. - if you can find a parking space.)
Fern House is an excellent place to stay, with every amenity provided to ensure a quiet and comfortable residence. We booked the accommodation several months before the 1940's event, and the communication from Andrew and Hazel was first rate, constantly updating us with necessary information.
All in all, we had a fantastic weekend, and Fern House played a big part in providing us with excellent facilities to ensure this. ( Even the weather was brilliant)
Thank You Hazel and Andrew, we'll certainly recommend your wonderful house to all our friends.

Fern House is in a superb position in the beautiful village of Grassington. You are a stone's throw from the square. The parking space outside the house is a real bonus. Communication with Andrew before our arrival was excellent. The property was really clean and well equipped. I would not hesitate in returning and highly recommend Fern House.

Lovely place to stop in a great position. Would highly recommend a stay in this beautiful location.
MelanieSeptember 2020
Andrew's place is exceptionally well situated. It was a cosy cottage to come home to after been out walking in quite chilly autumnal weather. A very comfy bed made for a good night's sleep. The kitchen space is small, however fine for 2 people having breakfast, with the dining table in the front room. A relaxing stay
TeresaSeptember 2020
Andrew's home is perfectly situated tucked away behind the main throughfare of the beautiful town of Grassington. Parking is an added bonus as the place was buzzing whilst we stayed. The house is quiet, well equipped, warm & comfortable. Stairs are steep as mentioned in the listing so you do need to take care when going to the loo in the night.

Fern House is perfectly represented in the pictures and it’s even a bit larger than we had expected. The stairs are steep though and no plumbing on the top floor. Everything you need is available and things are very well explained. The host is very accessible and quick to respond. It’s position in the village is ideal and the village itself is well situated for access to all the main attractions and walks. We’ll be back for sure!

Fern House is an absolute gem in one of the Yorkshire Dales most picturesque villages. It’s location is absolutely fantastic to explore both the local village and surrounding walks of Grassington and as a base to venture further afield in the Dales. Andrew and Hazel have an amazing house to stay at, fully equipped with everything you’d ever need in a holiday stay, it’s clean as a whistle, tastefully decorated and rather cosy. We felt right at home from the moment we walked in the door. We would have no hesitation recommending to others and would love to visit again in the future.

We loved Fern House and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. It was very comfortable and clean and a cosy welcoming place to stay. It was equipped with everything (and more) that we needed as a family of4. Grassington is a great location too, lots of lovely shops and cafes to wander round and good access to the beautiful dales. Andrew was really easy to communicate with, friendly and flexible and super accommodating when we realised we had left something behind after checking out! Thanks Andrew!

GordonAugust 2019
This cottage was booked at the last minute after another host let us down. It was the only one available in the area we wanted to go to so suited our needs well. It was not a cottage we would normally have booked as the decor was not to our taste. However it was clean, comfortable and the location was great. There were only my daughter and I staying but I think that for 4 people the accommodation is a bit small.

A comfortable and well-appointed flat for the two of us, including most things you could possibly need for a holiday stay. The location is great: in the centre of Grassington with easy parking yet tucked away so no passing traffic noise. There are lots of walks available from the doorstep. When a potential issue arose with the flat, Andrew responded to my enquiry very quickly and resolved the issue faster than I would have usually expected.

Lovely cottage/apartment. Fantastic location right in the centre of Grassington, close to shops, pubs & takeaways. Everything you need on your doorstep and easy access to the Yorkshire Dales. Although it’s close to the centre as it’s tucked away in a small courtyard area it is private and peaceful. We would love to go again sometime

Fern House was fantastic, with all the amenities you could ask for (including great wi-fi). It was very clean and well presented with plenty of space. Communication with Andrew was very easy and clear instructions were provided for entering the property (there was a key-code for entry through the front door). We were also able to check in slightly earlier. Grassington is a lovely village with plenty of nice places to eat and drink. Everyone we met there was very friendly and hospitable. There are many varied and interesting walks on the door step. Bolton Abbey is close by and also worth a visit. We have left a five star review and would highly recommend this property to anyone considering renting it.
