Description Heat Rising: Algarinejo

Sat atop a hill overlooking the undulating Andalusian landscape, this homespun villa is a place to relax and recharge. Inside, it’s cosy and rustic with timber beams, terracotta tiled floors and a collection of antique furnishings. We particularly loved the farmhouse-style kitchen with its quaint green gingham curtains. After a peaceful snooze in the quiet bedrooms, sit down to a light breakfast on the leafy patio. When you’ve finished the last of your coffee, plunge into the pool or lie back on a lounge and soak up the unobstructed vistas.

If you’d like to expend a little energy, enjoy a stroll through the surrounding countryside. Or why not spend the day in Granada? We recommend visiting the stunning Alhambra complex and watching the sunset from the San Nicolás viewpoint. In the early evening, seek out a traditional tablao for a captivating flamenco performance.
