Casa del Nómada is a chic Atlantic beach house, a short (1km) walk or bike ride from one of the most spectacular stretches of sand on the Costa de la Luz. Set towards the back of the Roche estate, the location is quiet, yet it is less than 5 minutes by bike to the local store (fresh bread), bar, and playground. And in the summer months, there are several of Cadiz’s famous chiringuitos (beach bars) within walking distance. Having said all this, this is a house you will want to spend time in; it has been designed precisely for this, and it offers just that bit more than your average beach house!

The property underwent a major refurbishment last year, the result being a well-proportioned and well-distributed single-storey house, cosey for couples but at the same time comfortable for groups of upto comfortably. There is a good-sized pool (9x4) with a well-protected terrace and covered outdoor bar, the garden has a number of umbrella pines, which provide just the right amount of sun and shade, and there is ample open lawn for children to play.

The L-shaped construction works perfectly as holiday accommodation, with the open-plan living area (sitting-room and dining-room) and kitchen making up the main block, with the bedroom wing running down one side. This formation also provides the ideal backdrop for the sheltered pool area. There are 5 bedrooms and three bathrooms (all with large walk-in showers but no bath). The main bedroom’s bathroom is en suite.

As well as its local shop, pharmacy, bar, and playground, Roche also has its own tennis courts five-a-side football pitches, and surf schools (in season). In the summer months, there are several beach bars/restaurants to choose from, and within a 5-10 minute drive you have a larger selection of places to eat all year round.
