This rural home is a delightful haven characterised by traditional stone and wood, and perfectly placed in the rolling Andalusian hills. The elevated pergola provides countryside vistas and with comfortable wrap-around cream sofas, you have the perfect setting to share a bottle of wine with friends and family. Your private pool surrounded by sun loungers is just tucked around the corner – the ideal spot to settle down to enjoy your latest read. For those travelling with families, whilst you’re dining alfresco or relishing the kiss of the sun on your skin, they can be burning off some energy on the basketball court or playing a game of table tennis. Venturing inside, you’ll be struck by the stunning natural decor, where stone walls meet beamed ceilings. Beautifully accentuating the traditional Spanish elements that define an Andalusian house, it still maintains a minimalistic feel, helping you relax and unwind during your stay. We love how this villa flows into nature beautifully – the outdoor whirlpool bathtub is one defining feature that is sure to make for a peaceful sunset. Located in El Borge, one thing is for certain – wine lovers will be in heaven. Surrounded by vineyards, botanical gardens and traditional... architecture, you'll be happy to put your feet up next to the fireplace in the evening, and simply enjoy living the Spanish high life.
