Amid almond trees and olive groves, you'll find this rural villa in the agricultural region of Málaga. Known for its breathtaking natural beauty, Axarquía remains a hidden gem due to its inland location that is untouched by tourism. So, why not live like a local and enjoy excellent hikes on your doorstep? Alternatively, you could head down to the coast at Torre del Mar, or drive into the nearby white town of Benamocarra. This south-facing home sits 150 metres above sea level, promising scenic views stretching far over the countryside to the distant shoreline. Inside and out, this villa has been designed for travellers with reduced mobility – offering an adapted rain shower and pool lift.

Whether you want to sunbathe on the lawn, play foosball on your terrace, or barbecue in the evening, this place truly considers what makes a happy holiday for everyone.
