Green Horizons Alhaurín de la Torre, Andalusia

Property Description

If you’re looking to unwind amongst Malaga’s luscious landscape, you can’t do much better than this charming casita tucked into the Andalusian countryside. Boasting vast green gardens populated with mandarin, custard apple, avocado pear and loquat trees, this is an idyllic setting for a rural retreat in one of Spain’s most beautiful regions.

Start your morning with a café con leche in the outdoor lounge then settle in for a day of sun-soaking on the loungers. When you’re not turning pages of your new read, slip into the crystalline pool’s cooling waters for a few laps. We don’t know about you, but we could easily spend all day out here, picking fresh fruits from the trees to make zesty cocktails and enjoying them on the rooftop terrace. The light-filled interior is a welcome oasis to the midday sun – stretch out in the serene bedroom for an afternoon siesta or put on your holiday playlist as your prepare a light lunch in the sleek and modern kitchen.

If you’re wanting to explore your local area, why not drive into Malaga city centre for an afternoon of sightseeing, head to Playa de Los Álamos for a day on the pristine sands, or tee off at the Real Guadalhorce Golf Course? When you return home, what better way to end the day than with an alfresco barbecue under the stars?
