The estate includes a generous historic Spanish manor farmhouse, a more lately-built guest house, and a separate comfortable villa, all overlooking a scenic mountain landscape and valley. Enjoying an elegant but relaxed setting, this secret paradise provides both a secluded retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life, and a lovely place to celebrate a special occasion or host family and friends.
This wonderful countryside rental house is spread over 3 levels including a two-bedroom apartment with independent access, and a separate double room with an en-suite. The house boasts many authentic features, including charming antique tiling, furniture, and textiles.
Cool in the summer, the large, high-ceilinged living room with its decorative original Spanish wall-mounted plates and exposed beams is a pleasantly relaxing and refined space. The room opens onto a terrace where you can unwind on day beds under a shady, vine-covered pergola, or sit at a covered dining table ideal for al fresco breakfast or dinner.
This terrace is only one of many where you can spend the day admiring the gardens or the pool. Inside, the spacious dining room features a traditional refectory table on the flagstone floor – ideal for dinner parties or more formal occasions. Filled with rustic charm and tastefully decorated with Spanish antiques and Mallorcan fabrics, every corner of this generous old manor house has the refined and inspiring charm of a much-loved family home. Every detail has been thought of – from the pool-side Wi-Fi and fridge to the cozy furnishings, artworks, and antiques, including the lovely wall tiles and ornate bathroom fittings.

Rambling, twisting vines cover the white-washed house with its turquoise wooden window shutters, creating a romantic ambience to read a book or unwind on the lovely and cozy outdoor furniture.

The property can be rented with its sister villa with 5 more bedrooms, also available for weddings and events. The guests can reserve both properties and enjoy a real country resort with 3 swimming pools, a tennis court, helipad, river, and outdoor routes.
The scenic traditional Andalucian village of Benahavis is an oasis of peace and privacy, and yet is located only 7 kilometres from the main coastal road. Typical white-washed buildings, restaurants and bars line narrow, well-shaded streets, and while the village exudes the natural charm of its 2000 mainly local residents, it also offers a cosmopolitan atmosphere thanks to the many guests attracted to its world-famous cuisine.
The brighter lights of Marbella and Puerto Banus, with their famous golf courses, beaches, marina, nightlife and great restaurants, are only a short drive away.
