There's a long list of things to love about this wonderful villa. Located in the Andalusian hills, a little outside the town of Competa, it's the perfect place to press pause and enjoy some quality time with your loved ones. Step inside, and you'll find a welcoming living space that's full of rustic charm. From the terracotta tiles and the antique furniture to the wooden ceiling beams, there are plenty of traditional details to make you feel right at home. Outside, there are stunning panoramic views to admire as you soak up the sun on a lounger. When the mercury rises you can cool off in the swimming pool, and there's even a basketball court so you can practice your passes. Then, when hunger strikes, fire up the grill in the summer kitchen for a delicious alfresco feast on the patio. Adventurous guests can hop on a bike or lace up their hiking boots and explore the rugged mountain landscapes – there are plenty of trails to choose from close by. Spend an afternoon wandering the winding streets of Competa, admiring the white-washed buildings that are typical of the area. And, if you fancy a day by the sea, take a drive down to one of the Costa Del Sol's famous beaches – you can arrive at the coast in around thirty-five minutes.
