The bathroom has shower and bath facilities and the water is heated with solar panels making it both economical and ecological. The upper bedroom is beautifully designed with restored windows, timber ceiling and terracotta floors. The room has a very tranquil feel to it, added to by the birds singing outside. The walls are also very thick so that it is warm in winter and cool in summer.
All in all, the house has been superbly renovated with great attention to detail and with its location, provides a wonderful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of modern life and far removed from the usual tourist destinations on the Costa del Sol.
The nearest place for supplies, banks and shopping is Frigiliana, about 12 minutes drive, which also has a number of interesting bars and restaurants.
It is another 5 minutes drive to Nerja and the new motorway leading to most other destinations and places in Andalusia. The historic city of Granada and, a little further, the skiing areas of the Sierra Nevada, are just over an hour‘s drive. Malaga airport is 45 minutes away. Between Nerja and Almuñecar there is a natural park with various bays and some of the most beautiful beaches along the Costa del Sol which, by car, is only 20 minutes from Cortijo Cortes.
