Switch off at this stunning home on the outskirts of Benalauría, a neat base for exploring all that the Andalusian countryside has to offer. What this home lacks in showstopping amenities, it more than makes up for in old-school atmosphere, boasting a whole host of traditional design features that make you feel at ease the second you step over the threshold. While away summer afternoons by the private pool, a drink in one hand and a good book in the other, before heading inside to unwind by the fire. When it’s time to eat, rustle up a home-cooked tapas feast and tuck in at the homely dining table, where we’d recommend cracking open a cool bottle of wine to share with your fellow guests. If you fancy getting out and about, there’s plenty to explore nearby. Head into Benalauría for a spot of people-watching or make your way to the Castle of Benadalid and soak up some of the region’s rich history. However you fill your time here, you’ll love coming back to your gorgeous home from home, where you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay in one of Spain's most attractive regions.
