Travel up the mountain path towards this home and the scene is instantly set for a secluded, tranquil retreat. This quintessentially Spanish casa is situated in the rolling hills of Cómpeta, with a rustic feel that just adds to its charm. In this little piece of paradise, you’re surrounded by green countryside and stunning flowers that provide a pop of colour to the landscape. With such breathtaking views, it’s impossible not to feel relaxed from the moment you set foot on the property. Just imagine yourself lying back on the sun lounger, feeling the Andalusian sun warming your skin, and listening to the quiet of nature, or the sizzle of dinner cooking on the stone barbecue. This cosy spot is nothing short of idyllic, perfect for a group of friends or family. Venturing inside when the sun is overhead and you want a break from the pool, you’ll enjoy traditional Spanish decor with beautiful wooden french doors, shutters, and wrought iron headboards. This home has every modern comfort whilst retaining its old-fashioned charm, with cool terracotta tiles peppered throughout. When it’s time to explore the local area, reach the main town and you’ll be in the right place to enjoy...
