Hi all,
We got back home on Saturday 29th March so I have uploaded some more photo's.
The first set of 6 show one photo view over Iznalloz from TH4 looking at the snow covered Sierra De Huetor. We were lucky to see snow on this mountain range at Easter. I have also uploaded a second set of photo's that show the kitchen and bathroom of the 2 bed townhouse for those interested. The last set of photo's are a selection of the Sierra Nevada ski resort. There was still plenty of snow for skiing at this time of year.
We checked some travel times and it is approx 10 Min's to the nearby golf course and water sports lake, 1 hour to Sierra Nevada resort and just over 1 hour to the Costa Tropical resorts. I noted the motorway extension to the Costa Tropical is almost complete and I would expect the time would reduce to approx 45-50 Min's.
Woody, the temperature was in the 60s and re the date for completion, September is still suggested. We did note the landscaping prepared in the area between the Mirador and Balcones development and we understand that a second swim pool may be considered for the next phase of the Balcones development.
Re furniture, we stopped at a furniture warehouse adjacent to the petrol station on the road leading to the motorway from Iznalloz. It's worth having a look and they have a small brochure of the furniture they provide etc. Eli can advise you where it is etc. We still have not decided where to get our furniture from although we do like some of the furniture express furniture.
The villa we stayed in had built in wardrobes that are of a type that would be suitable for the Balcones development, I forgot to take photo's, so I will get my relatives in Spain to take some for me as they live in the same type of villa and look after the one we stayed at. I will email these to Eli and enquire if these or similar could be built and at what cost.
