just back from las chimeneas had a wonderful time walking, great hosts who are very knowledgeable on local history and wlaking routes. Excellent food with an good vegetarian option each night.Very good value for money.

A very peaceful and tranquil place. Beautiful views, rewarding walks. Great food. Many thanks to Emma and her team for their hospitality and sharing knowledge of and passion for Alpujarra with us.

It’s difficult not to repeat much of what is already written but a brief reflection of our experience would, I believe, give a flavour of Las Chimeneas.

We booked a week here on the basis of the hotel's website and the Trip Advisor's reviews, and found exactly what we were promised: great location, wonderful food and accommodation, fantastic hosts and staff, and like-minded company. Nothing was too much trouble for David, Emma and their team. Thanks for a great walking holiday.
