Spanish Holiday Villa

About The Experience

Experience the richness of a Spanish holiday when you rent this Malaga villa, nestled amidst walnut trees in a valley overlooking a national park. Though most holiday villas in Spanish region of Malaga are located along the Costa del Sol, this estate sits inland-- offering proximity to the coast without the crowds-- as well as access to the relatively undiscovered "pueblos blancos" of the interior. Every bedroom has its own bath, which means this villa is an excellent choice for any group, whether family or friends.

Location Description

This Malaga villa is located nearest the village of Estacion de Cortes, where you can find a grocery shop and two restaurants. A little further sits Cortes de la Frontera, which has a fine selection of restaurants and shops. A range of fresh local produce, wines and cheeses are available here and should be sampled. Gaucin is approximately a 30 minute drive away, picturesque and tranquil, a typical Andalucian white village and well worth a visit. Similarly, the historic city of Ronda is a 50 minute drive and the beach can be reached in less than an hour from the villa. Hikers and ramblers can indulge themselves in this landscape; the surrounding terrain of the Sierra de Grazalema and the Rio Guadiario provide the ideal walking environment with some simply spectacular scenery to offer. Though the province of Malaga is primarily known for its booming seaside resorts, there are also many less-known areas, particularly inland, which are undiscovered and unspoiled. Just 20 km inland from the Costa del Sol, dramatic coastal landscapes give way to rolling countryside and Moorish hilltop villages, called "pueblos blancos" for their distinctive whitewashed buildings and winding cobbled streets.

Exterior Description

(1,000 m2) Set amongst walnut trees in the serene Guadiaro y Linda valley, with views over the Grazalema and Los Alcornocales natural parks, this completely refurbished country villa is nestled in a spectacular and tranquil location. The estate covers more than 200 hectares, rich in flora, wildlife and raw beauty. This is a unique property constructed of natural stone-- its imposing tower, clearly visible on the approach, gives only a taste of what to expect. The grounds surrounding the villa include a private swimming pool (10m x 6m) and a garden with outdoor furniture for dining as well as a barbecue. Two separate cottages, 150 meters away from the main house, each sleep an additional two people. The property is accessed via 3.5 km of unpaved road.
