It is however available at the top of the driveway around 100 metres away Make sure you login to the WiFi as soon as you arrive ...that way you can use your mobile plan through the WiFi if you switch WiFi calling on on your mobiles. Guests have use of indoor pool and private tennis court which is near the main house but please note the following . USE OF POOL 1.The pool will be available for your exclusive use at any time of your choosing between 10am and 6.30pm. Guests should let the hosts know when they wish to use the pool to enable the hosts to remove the cover and open it up . 2.Please also note that the pool is currently undergoing redecoration after a small leak to the roof so some marks remain visible. 3.All swimming is undertaken at your own risk. 4.There are no shower facilities in available in the pool house so guests should use the facilities in the cottage. 5. Absolutely no alcohol is permitted in the pool; glassware is also prohibited . 6. Diving is not permitted . 7. The pool does benefit from a swim jet . 8. Please note that the pool has a cover which has deposits of calcium carbonate on it and may therefore initailly appear unsightly. This is becasue we live in area with very hard water and when the water on the top of the cover evaporates it leaves this deposit. This is similar to the scale in a kettle. We remove this once or twice a year but it is just a natural deposit from the water. There may also on occasions be a small amount of sand on the bottom of the pool, which emanates from the filter via the pump. This is because the pump and filter are left on permanantly, filtering the entire water roughly every 5 hours so it is incredibly clean. The pool temperature is maintained at a minimum of 27 degrees which is well within the recommendations for swimming. (To put that into context it is 2 degrees higher than the sea temperature at Marbella at its maximum in August!) . 9. The use of the pool is STRICTLY FOR RECREATIONAL PURPOSES. Any COMMERCIAL USE including filming will only be permitted under separate negotiation. 10. Please also note that there are a number of steps both in the pool building and on the walkway to the pool so it is not suitable for those with very limited mobility. 11 . The pool is located in a different building to the cottage. It is less than a minutes walk between the two . TENNIS COURT USE 1.The tennis court is available without prior notice to the hosts. It is fully accessible other than between 10.30 am and 12noon on Sunday mornings 2.
