Description Classical Splendour: Las Lagunas de Mijas

Lounge by this home’s lovely pool surrounded by classical columns, statutes, terracotta pots and mature palms. Later, head up to the raised terrace and cook an Andalusian feast on the barbecue. Then take in the vistas over the golf course from the balcony – this place has so much outside space to take advantage of the Costa del Sol’s gorgeous climate.

The garden has a trampoline, too, for the kids – this home is ideal for a family (or friends). Inside, there are two lounges and a fabulous games room with a pool table, darts and Xbox Kinect. We love that the main bedroom opens out onto the large terrace – perfect for topping up on vitamin D in the morning while reading your holiday book.

There’s plenty to do in the area when you feel like exploring. For starters, there’s the fantastic eighteen-hole golf course you can see from this home. Or head to nearby Fuengirola, with its array of shops, restaurants and golden sandy beaches.
