Morning Sunlight

Holiday Rental Description

Sandwiched between Andalusian mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, this villa has a truly idyllic location and while many properties would make this gorgeous scenery its main lure, that's not the case here. Put this home in the most unremarkable of settings and it would still wow.

The peaceful outdoor space is a big reason for this. On hot days – of which there are few around these parts – you can cool off in the swimming pool and dry off on one of the surrounding loungers, before getting round to cooking up fellow guests a smoky feast on the barbecue.

When you finally head inside, you won't be disappointed. The high ceilings and large windows make the interior feel bright and expansive, while there's an eclectic array of artworks and mementoes dotted about the place that adds a bit of character. As well as looking the part, it's also really rather cosy – come evening time, why not treat yourself to a soak in the sunken bath before snuggling up next to the fireplace?

When it comes to seeing a little more of the local area, the golden sands of Playa de Carvajal take less than five minutes to reach in the car, while you can head into the mountains in around ten minutes' drive. The centre of Malaga will only take you half an hour to get to when you fancy a day trip packed full of museums and historic architecture.

Home truths:
