This charming home is the perfect rural escape. Nestled down a 100m dirt track in the Andalusian countryside, it's the ideal spot for guests who are craving some peace and quiet. Step inside, and you'll find a cosy space with plenty of traditional details. You can admire the crafted artworks over a glass of Rioja and get toasty beside the fireplace on chilly evenings. However, we think you'll want to spend most of your time outside in the balmy Spanish sunshine. Make a splash in the swimming pool, then dry off on a lounger as you admire the gorgeous views. And, when hunger strikes, you can enjoy a delicious feast on the patio, fresh off the barbeque. Active guests can lace up their hiking boots or hop on their mountain bikes to explore the region, with its rugged landscapes and beautiful vistas. The pretty white-washed town of Sayalonga is only a short drive away and gives you an authentic taste of Andalusian life. And, if you're planning a day at the beach, you can drive down to sandy Playa de la Mezquitilla in around twenty minutes.
