This sprawling Spanish casa is surrounded by the most magnificent mountainous terrain. Perfect for a large family or group of friends, this home has contemporary comfort at its core. Feel the beauty of the nature that surrounds you as you take on some laps in your private pool, after which, you can recline on your sun lounger and you’ll feel your worries melting away. With a well-equipped outdoor kitchen here, along with an outdoor bathroom, you won’t have to stroll too far from the pool for anything you need. As the evening rolls around, light the barbecue and indulge in a delicious dinner alfresco – all you need is a large bottle of wine and you’re in for a memorable evening. The interior decor encompasses natural materials reflective of your surroundings, yet tastefully modernised for a little touch of luxury. After dinner, kick off your shoes and put your feet up on your vast comfortable sofa. For cooler evenings, get the fire going for a cosy ambience. We love how each bedroom has a tall headboard, creating a beautiful decorative touch as you drift off into a peaceful night's sleep. As the sun rises over the mountains in the morning, enjoy a little bit of calm as you sip your coffee taking in the spectacular vistas – the benches are a lovely spot to enjoy the peace and quiet to the delicate backdrop of birdsong.
