Monta Clara

Monta Clara: Andalusia

A sense of calm will wash over you from the moment you arrive at this idyllic home. Surrounded by trees, native plant life, and the mountains beyond, this pretty whitewashed villa is totally ensconced in nature. Set in the countryside north of Malaga, the villa features sleek modern interiors, a spectacular swimming swimming pool, a shaded terrace and a barbecue for whipping up traditional Spanish feasts. The spacious emerald green kitchen also has everything you need for cooking big dinners, which can be enjoyed alfresco on warm summer evenings. There are three bedrooms, one of which is en suite and has plenty of storage space. Doors on the first floor lead out onto the balcony, the perfect place for relaxing with a book or playing a game of cards.

You could easily spend your day admiring the view and splashing around in the water, but there’s plenty to explore nearby too. The nearest town is Almogia, where you’ll find supermarkets, shops, local restaurants and bars. Alternatively head down to Malaga to explore the historic city, or relax on one of its sixteen beautiful beaches. After the hustle and bustle of a Spanish city, return home to the private tranquility of your villa for sunset drinks on the terrace, and perhaps a game of table football or two.
