Villa Carmen del Monte - Peaceful Rural Villa 10kms from the coast at Nerja
Villa with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 7, Garden, Swimming Pool
Just one hour from Malaga airport you can enjoy choosing between traditional Spain and the coast, by staying in a spacious four bedroom country villa near the archetypal white hilltop town of Competa - 10 kms. from Nerja and the coast.
Villa Carmen del Monte is a four bedroom villa with its own private eight by four meter pool in a quiet rural location. The property is located in olive groves owned by the property and features are made of the Mediterranean gardens around the Villa, terraces and pool areas overlooking the mountains. The panoramic views of the Almijara Sierra Park and the Torrox valley descending to the Mediterranean are breathtaking.
Villa Carmen del Monte accommodates seven people on two floors in two double, one twin and a spacious single bedroom. There is a modern bathroom on each floor.
Both the Villa and pool areas have stunning views of the Sierra. The secluded, terrace overlooks an eight by four meter pool immediately in front of the Villa, so that you can relax alongside the pool. The pool is fully tiled, with easy-access steps and is lit by underwater lighting. On one side of the pool is and al fresco dining area as well as a large free-standing BBQ.
There are four large bedrooms all with spacious fitted wardrobes; two double, one twin and one spacious single bedroom arranged on two floors. This allows for two families each to have a double and children's room as well as a bathroom on each floor. All rooms are equipped with ceiling fans. There are two modern, fully tiled bathrooms both with external windows and proper pressure showers on each floor
Villa Carmen del Monte has an eight metre living room overlooking the Sierra Almajara. There is a 32" flat screen Sky TV to access all the main UK TV channels. The living room has a balcony, double doors to the patio and a wood burning stove for the Winter.
The location is perfect for both lazing on the beach or by the pool and for visits to the classical cities of Andalucia - Granada, Savilla and Cordoba. Competa has a wide choice of shops, small supermarkets, bars and restaurants. There is also a local bar and restaurant within walking distance.
The coast line here has still managed to retain much of its character and charm as this is where the mountains meet the sea. There are a number of excellent, safe beaches. The old Moorish town of Competa is still intrinsically Spanish in culture, bustling with local life.
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 with 320 days of sunshine. This is the perfect time for walkers to explore the nature park alongside the Villa and return to drinks around the stove.
