An absolutely beautiful country house with joyous views, landscaped gardens and an irresistible 15 metre pool ...
One of three superb villas on a wonderful, 10 acre countryside estate, this exquisite property is, like the others, completely private and self-contained with its own entrance, driveway, gardens and swimming pool.
All are splendid properties but this is the most outstanding of all, spacious and beautifully appointed.
Accessed by a quiet country lane, it is just ten minutes west of Ronda in the beautiful Llano de la Cruz valley. To one side are spectacular views of the Sierra de Ronda, and on the other, a beautiful vista of fertile, undulating farmland.
Features of the estate include extensive landscaped gardens, mature orchards of olive and citrus, walnut and almond, quince and medlar, as well as a beautifully maintained garden surrounding each villa. There is also a vegetable garden, fish pond and a fountain.
"Words cannot express. The finca is beautiful, the surroundings fantastic, the hospitality warm, genuine and so welcoming. The perfect vacation".
There is a little train that does occasionally pass by the villa heading on its way through the magical and stunning countryside to Algeciras – well worth experiencing. Other than this though, there’s nothing here to disturb the absolute peace and harmony.
The villa is completely hidden from the others by graceful trees and greenery.
Its own extensive, landscaped and lawned gardens are a real delight, colourfully planted with a wealth of flowers, shrubs and mature trees. They feature an irresistible 15 m x 6 m swimming pool with an ornamental fountain.
In such beautiful surroundings, a relaxing holiday is never going to be a problem here!
Extensive terracing surrounds the villa, providing a seamless link between the interior, the exterior dining areas and the beautiful gardens beyond.
"We have stayed in villas in Tuscany, Provence and the Cotswolds, but none impressed us as much as this one. We give this serene paradise both thumbs up and a strong recommendation".
These include a shady, furnished patio for al fresco dining which looks out to the pool and the rear gardens, perfect for those candle-lit dinners with the sun setting in a blaze of blue and pink beyond the trees.
All four upstairs bedrooms have french doors opening to another large terrace on the first floor, offering more views of the countryside all around.
Inside, it’s a spacious (around 420m²) and beautifully appointed family home which functions superbly as one moves from one space to another, its top-quality kitchen very much at the heart of the home. The splendid kitchen / diner is appropriately equipped with absolutely everything you could wish for.
With views across the rear gardens and pool, it features a six ring, double-oven range cooker, two fridge freezers, and a dishwasher.
The immaculate dining table at the other end of the room comfortably seats ten. French doors open to the covered dining terrace outside.
The huge and very stylish sitting room alongside is bathed in light. Sun kissed pastels, natural terracottas and lusty earth tones combine both rustic and sophisticated influences from Europe and Africa to create a room of character and comfort. There is satellite TV, DVD, a music system and iPod / iPhone docking as well as an extensive library of DVD’s.
"A delightful place to relax. It's quiet and secluded, yet centrally located amid the region's major attractions".
One of the attractive bedrooms is downstairs, a double which can be made up as two singles if preferred. A bathroom (shared with the childrens bedroom upstairs), the laundry room and a guest cloakroom complete the ground floor distribution.
The villa has overhead fans in all rooms to keep you cool during the summer months and there is WiFi internet access throughout the house.
The other four bedrooms (three double bedded and a childrens twin room) are on the first floor. Each enjoys countryside views and access to the large upstairs terrace. The double bedrooms all have en-suite bath or shower rooms.
Thoughtfully and attractively furnished, all bedrooms in the villa have duvets and electric blankets, offering warmth as well as comfort.
The master bedroom is vast and beautifully appointed, with its super king sized bed almost lost within the room’s 90 square metres! It leads through to an equally impressive, luxury en-suite bathroom (with an extra large bath, bidet, separate shower and double basins).
"The most relaxing days we've ever had. We felt very welcome. Thank you so much. We had a wonderful stay, loved it".
Just ten minutes from this haven of rural peace and tranquillity, Ronda, known to locals as the “The City of Dreams” has a fascinating history and a character to match.
An ancient hill town, it straddles the almost vertical, extraordinary Tajo Gorge which plunges to a depth of more than 150 metres.
The oldest part of the town, the original citadel fortress of the Moors, lies to the east of gorge, a labyrinth of winding streets with ancient mansion houses, churches and enchanting little squares. There are breathtaking vistas from many of the bars and restaurants out across the gorge to the surrounding mountains.
The newer part of the town began to grow when the famous bridge was finally completed at the end of the 19th century. This is a bustling area of small shops, bars and restaurants and the site of Andalucia’s most famous bullring.
"The villa, pool and grounds are all beautiful and have provided the perfect setting for us. We had the best time we could ever have hoped for".
To the east of the town is the pristine Sierra de la Nieves National Park, recently declared a Unesco Biosphere Reserve, and to the west is the Grazalema National Park, a really beautiful mountainous area, home to some of the most diverse flora and fauna in Spain. A series of pretty, traditional pueblos blancos are all within easy driving distance. The walking and bird watching here are amongst the best in Europe.
So, there’s plenty to do around and about. Whether you want to explore the wonderful nature, breathtaking vistas and first class hiking of the National Parks, discover the culture and traditions of historic Ronda, explore the enchanting villages or maybe venturing further, to Sevilla or the coastal resorts of Puerto Banus, San Pedro and Marbella, there’s something for everyone.
Whichever direction you head off to, one thing is for sure: you will be returning to one of the most comfortable and relaxing properties in Spain. One that perfectly combines modern, convenient living with traditional Andalusian charm.
For two or more families wishing to holiday together but wanting a degree of independence from one another, the property can also be rented in conjunction with one of the other two villas on the estate.
