This cheerful two bedroomed villa will delight couples and small families looking for a cosy and quiet holiday bolthole near Frigiliana. Only two kilometres from the village and surrounded by scented orange and avocado trees, it is blessed with fantastic views over a valley from its pool terrace and split level outdoor areas.

The simple, good standard accommodation is well-maintained and arranged around a spacious and airy sitting-dining room featuring blue-painted window frames and a traditional fireplace and comfortable sofa to one end. A cute dining area at the other end of the room is divided from a well-fitted modern kitchen by a breakfast bar and has doors to an outer, shaded terrace, which offers an excellent venue for alfresco meals. Steps descend to a barbecue area and the pool terrace, which is located to take full advantage of the sunshine and the idyllic rural panoramas and is furnished with sunloungers.

Back inside, the villa has two light and attractive bedrooms, including a double benefiting from full-length French doors to the terrace and lovely mountain views. A sweet bathroom, prettily finished in blue-and-white tiles, completes the accommodation. The shops and eateries of Frigiliana are close at hand and a variety of bars and cafés can be found sprinkled nearby.
