Surrounded by olive and almond trees with the sea breeze dancing through the air, this is the kind of home that transports you to the heart of Mediterranean living. Set within the rugged landscape of the Sierras de Tejeda and Almijara, you’ll find a traditional Spanish home brimming with character. From the honey-coloured interior to the wooden beams, stone arches and rustic styling, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of welcome. Outside, the porch opens up to mesmerising views across the horizon. Featuring a private swimming pool and barbecue area, this is the perfect setting for rejuvenating dips and long lazy lunches in the shade. From here it's just a short atmospheric drive into the whitewashed town of Cómpeta, while the shimmering coastline of the Costa del Sol is also within easy reach. When you aren’t exploring the beaches and coves on the coast, you’ll find ample opportunities for hiking, horse riding, cycling and golfing.
