Alhaurín Pensieve

Located in the town of Alhaurín el Grande in Málaga and surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, this comfortable apartment is an ideal base for those looking to enjoy the best of Andalusia’s outdoors.

Sitting on the building’s top floor, the apartment offers a cosy and welcoming space with modern furnishings and a sociable open-plan living area that will make you feel right at home. While the insides are perfectly pretty, it’s the home’s terrace that really steals the spotlight. Decked out with a table and chairs, this is where you’ll want to begin mornings over a Spanish omelette and some freshly brewed coffee or end the evening with an alfresco dinner paired with a bottle of local wine. There are sun loungers here too to help you catch those Southern rays, while the piece de resistance is of course the private hot tub that beckons starlit soaks while the moon hangs over the mountain’s silhouetted form.

When it comes to things to see and do, you’re just a stone’s throw from the town centre where you’ll find plenty of shops and restaurants. For those looking to perfect their swing, your host can help organise a range of golf experiences at the nearby fairways, while the call of the sea isn’t too far out of reach either with Playas de Fuengirola 20 kilometres away.


Home truths:
*There's a lift in the building to access the apartment on the third floor
*At capacity, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room – this will be at the expense of lounge space, however, so we think this home is better suited to two guests
*A cot and a high chair are available on request
*There's no desk here, but the breakfast bar can double up as a laptop-friendly workspace if needed
*There are supermarkets, shops and restaurants 50 metres away
*Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is 23 kilometres away
