The Return

It was good to be able to welcome back Eric and Margaret for an Autumn holiday at Cortijo Opazo, they've been coming here longer than Ella has been around, and they make a lot more sense too! For example, and I quote from their comment in our guest book:

I am sure that saying this is our ninth visit to Cortijo Opazo says how much we enjoy the area an most of all Robert's and William's hospitality. As always the apartment was immaculate. Once again we enjoyed one of William's delightful meals.
During our eight day stay we have experienced all weathers from sun bathing on our second day to tramping in the first snow of the winter today (November 30th) - this was up at Hoya del Portillo above Capileira. We were pleased to be able to achieve another 3000 metre peak, El Caballo, approached from Lanjaron by a mountain track. Whilst walking in the Rio Toril we were delighted to spot two groups of Ibex - eight in total.
It has been interesting seeing how the garden has matured over the years and hearing the plans for its further development.

Eric and Margaret, November 2009

I am sure the guests who follow will also be grateful to them since Eric, in his enthusiasm for chopping, left behind more fire wood than he burnt, all collected free from the mountainside.

Yours, enjoying the fireside,

Fergus
