The pool and patio areas include sun-loungers, reclining seats, hardwood dinning table and chairs and features are made of traditional Spanish terracotta earthenware. There is also a large built-in barbeque for out door entertaining
The Villa is located 4 kms. from the historic hill town of Competa and 10 kms. from the coast near Nerja. Unlike so many properties in the area the Villa is only 500 meters from the Torrox - Competa mountain road to the coast, so there is no long driving over difficult tracks.
The all important local support is provided by a maintenance company who provide pool, maintenance, cleaning and laundry.
The Villa is perfect for enjoying the beaches, the local small white towns, the excellent value of the local restaurants, visits to the historic cites of Andalusia, walking in the mountains directly from the Villa, or just relaxing by the pool. The coast near Nerja is 15 minutes away. As it is here that the Sierra Almijara meets the sea, there are long sandy beaches as well as small rocky coves. The cost here has still managed to retain much of its character and charm, compared to much of the Costa del Sol. The Villa is four km. from the famous old Moorish town of Competa. The town is still intrinsically Spanish in culture, bustling with local life, restaurants, bars, market and small supermarkets.
The whole area is rich in the heritage of the Moors, especially the nearby cities of Sevilla, Granada, Cadiz and Cordoba accessable by one of the best and most modern auto routes in Europe.
Apart from relaxing by the pool or on the beach, the more energetic might enjoy some of the following activities. all within a few miles of the Villa:
• Walking and Hiking - From right outside the Villa, there are many tracks leading into the nature park and into the Sierra Almijara. The local shops sell detailed walking guides.
• Horse Riding - There are a number of stables within a few minutes of the Villa for both beginners and experienced riders. They will take the more adventurous right into the mountains for a really unforgettable experience
• Four wheel drive/Quad Bikes - You can hire both and either be independent or take a guided tour of the mountain trails.
• Golf - Bavaria golf is just 30 minutes - see below for details of the course.
• Aqua Park - Is just 35 minutes away across from the Euroski main shopping centre.
• Beaches – Spoilt for choice, from the quiet bays below the moiuntains East of Nerja to the wide sandy beaches of Nerja and Torrox Costa.
• Sailing/boating at La Caleta marina near Torre del Mar
• Ski-ing - at the ski resort in the Sierra Nevada - Sol y Nieve with ski runs up to 3,000 metres
Golfers can combine a golfing holiday with beach, mountains and the historic cities or Andulacia. The Costa del Sol exceeds in the selection of courses available to beginners and professionals. The nearest course is 25 minutes from the Villa. Baviera Golf Club is an 18 hole, 6100 yard, par 71 course, with driving range. The course is laid out around gardens and lakes, with views towards both the Sierra and the sea. Nearer to Malaga is the Anoreta Golf Club, another Canizares designed course. This 18 hole, 6538 yard, par 71course sets a slightly more difficult challenge due to water hazards being featured on 11 of the 18 holes, but still makes for an enjoyable game.
One of the best-kept secrets is the winter climate. This most southerly part of Spain, between the mountains and the sea, is said to have the best climate in Europe. Although it can be rainy in December and January, it is more normal to have bright sunny days with clear nights. This is the perfect time for walkers to explore the nature park alongside the Villa and return to drinks around the large stove. The area in winter is a unique combination of indoor and outdoor living. If you are keen on sport, it is possible to sit on the beach or around the pool enjoying the sun in Winter and three hours later you can be in deep snow at the ski resort in the Sierra Nevada - Sol y Nieve with ski runs up to 3,000 metres.
