My wife and I stayed at Casa Natural View for one week in January and it was just splendid. The house was the best equipped (even a new toaster which is a complete rarity in CR) we have stayed at, very clean and spacious with various sitting areas outside and in and wonderful bedroom with a great view of the garden. The garden was full of birds, toucans and tanagers - many many different birds in addition to our favourite chicken who slept in the hibiscus hedge! The house is situated on a typical rocky CR road but is not too far from pavement - no need for a 4x4. With the roosters and cows you feel like you're in the middle of a farm, but with lots of privacy. The nearby town of Bihagua has everything from a super market and other fruit and meat stores to a bank, drugstore, etc. Finally, the best thing about the house is the owner, Marlon Calderon Brenes, who really looked after us. Marlon is also a guide and knows the area very well. All in all, we recommend very highly both the house and Marlon as a guide (the nearby Rio Celeste for example). A completely lovely visit.
