Casa Gloria is situated on a finca (small-holding) of nearly 2 acres with fig trees, vegetable garden and ornamental gardens.
There's also a stone-built original bodega (wine cellar) where you can enjoy an evening by candlelight and even make use of the two guitars!
Franceses is a wonderfully rural area where the local people still go about their business of tending the goats and farmland and yet it's just a 20 minute drive to the local town of Barlovento.
There is bus stop just 50m away with a bus every two hours or every four hours at weekends or fiestas.
Casa Gloria is also a great place from which to visit the Roque de Muchachos at the top of the island.
From Casa Gloria, it's the night of a million stars!
So whether you are keen on astronomy, astrophotography or simply gazing at the stars, you can enjoy the show from right outside the door.
