Perched in the Torrox hills, in the heart of the Costa Del Sol countryside, this rural villa is an idyllic setting for a country retreat with friends or family. Inside, home comforts are balanced with traditional design features, resulting in cosy living spaces that are a delight to unwind in – we love the original beams and picture frame windows in the living room that flood the open space with Mediterranean light. Make a beeline for the dynamic kitchen, where you’ll find everything you need to rustle up an Andalusian tapas feast for you and your cohort. We have to say the outside space captured our hearts here. Boasting a pristine pool and breathtaking views over the olive-grove-studded landscape and across the Sierra de Almijara mountains, this is the perfect place to while away balmy summer afternoons. Sprawl out on one of the poolside sun loungers and settle in for a day of sun-soaking and pool-dipping. Chances are it’ll still be warm when night falls, so why not soak up the balmy atmosphere and enjoy a grilled barbecue dinner alfresco? As the moon illuminates the majestic mountains, settle in for some stargazing with a glass of Rioja.
