Charming Townhouse in Alora
Málaga, Spain

Sensitively restored Andalusian self catering townhouse in Alora situated at the end of a row of typical Spanish houses, several hundred years old. A comfortable home from home with a very pleasing appearance and cosy ambiance. A large roof terrace affords delightful mountain views, with loungers, sunshades, dining and BBQ facilities. A second lower terrace is a superb location for breakfasts al fresco and also has a small plunge pool. The house is within easy reach to Alora train station with direct line to Malaga (and coastal resorts), and inland to Bobadilla for onward connections across Spain. Malaga airport, with car hire facilities is only a 30 min drive. There is no need to negotiate the tiny streets by car (several of which are lined with lemon trees) as the house is less than 5 min walk to shops, banks, post office, restaurants and bars.

The local scenery, flora and fauna have to be believed. Much for the visitor to explore by car, cycle or walking in the surrounding pretty mountain villages, steeped in history. El Chorro Natural Park is only 10 mins drive. Alora castle, floodlit at night, has been declared a national monument.

Alora is ideally situated for exploring surrounding areas and enjoying outdoor pursuits. Alhaurin El Grande with its superb golfing facilities is just 20 mins drive away. Take the train to Malaga (just 30 mins) and enjoy the city or take the train along the coast for a day on the beach, stopping at resorts including Torremolinos, Benalmadina, and finally Fuengirola.
