This refurbished stone cottage, one of six in a rural area of Andalusia, sleeps 2 adults and 2 children and is in a wonderful spot for sun worshippers and active families alike. Near to fantastic walking territory, it’s not just a rural retreat but caters well for families with a pool, games, bikes and plenty more on site to hire, including donkeys for guided treks.
The residence itself is a classic rustic cottage, with wooden beams, a sunny terrace with views and plenty of painted tiles. With a sunny terrace made for outdoor eating plus a spiral staircase leading to the kids room, it’s got plenty of character. Visit the pretty town of Alájar for food, attend local fiestas and festivals or explore the countryside nearby for a relaxing break.
