Tucked into the hillside, gazing lovingly out over Frigiliana, this charming villa is a welcoming, classical Spanish retreat. Inside, the home is bathed in natural light courtesy of the generous arched windows – which we love, by the way, with the shape and floral decoration adding so much character to the living area. White walls, dark wooden beams and mosaic tiles, so befitting of the local area, run through the remainder of the inside space, giving the home a personality of its own. Picture cosy evenings spent here, the fire crackling and casting an amber glow around the room as you get stuck into a good book, tucked up on the comfortable leather sofa.

Outdoors, this home really sparks into life. The split-level terraces mean you have a selection of places to take in the beautiful view across Frigiliana as far as the beaches of Nerja. Lazy days relaxing on a lounger with the sun’s rays warming your skin as you soak up those vistas will never get old. If the heat becomes a little stifling, cool off in your private pool before lighting the barbecue and settling down to an alfresco meal with loved ones. With an abundance of flowers peppered around the terraces leaving their delicate floral scent hanging in the breeze and the company of those dearest to you, you’ll feel so completely at home, you may never want to leave.
