At Home on the Horizon Torrox, Andalusia

Property Description

Located in the seaside town of Torrox, surrounded by nine kilometres of impressive coastline and mountain landscape, this villa is brimming with Málaga charm. Nestled up high in the hills, this home boasts a decadent terrace that affords spectacular views over the town and the Mediterranean Sea. Waking up early is easy when you're stepping out to scenery like this.

We highly recommend starting your days with breakfast under the pergola, then a refreshing dip in the private pool. Once you're feeling energised and ready to explore, jump in the car to make the short drive to one of the area's beautiful beaches. Peñoncillo is a popular choice as it's perfect for swimming thanks to milder waves. Wherever you end up, Torrox is the perfect place for beach hopping, due to having warm temperatures all year round.

Once you've had your fill of sun, sea and sand, pick up some fresh ingredients and head home to fire up the barbecue. Tuck into an alfresco feast then grab a glass of wine and get comfy on one of the sun loungers, which are conveniently positioned facing the horizon, meaning you have uninterrupted views of the sun setting over the ocean each night.
