An easy drive from Malaga and the popular beaches of the Costa del Sol is a tranquil and traditional region of Andalucia, blessed with the sunniest climate in Europe. Holiday villas in La Axarquia offer self catering accommodation with pools in a warm land of olives and raisins, mango and kiwi, while Antequera villas allow day trips to Granada, Cordoba and Seville.
We found this well-kept villa at the edge of Arenas de San Pedro, a famous town at the foot of the high mountains of Gredos. The entire house and gardens are delightful, with a lovely pool and barbecue area. A safe bet for families wanting to stay somewhere pretty, clean and nicely presented and not too far from Madrid. The surrounding mountains are stunning. Sleeps 14
