Villa Aracena - Five Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 10 | Villa in Aracena

Situated in the beautiful Andalucian countryside, this charming villa enjoys exceptional views over the surrounding parkland, offering a secluded setting to enjoy a relaxing break with family and friends.
Surrounded by cork and chestnut trees, Villa Aracena is a typical cortijo, a traditional rural property featuring a large main house and a separate outbuilding, where you can find a self-contained studio space for additional guests.
With white-washed walls and traditional terracotta tiled roofs, the main house has plenty of character, and various plants and flowering climbers add colour to the exterior. Entering through a charming porch-way, the ground floor opens out to bright and spacious rooms with tall sloping ceilings and exposed timber beams. Traditional tiled floors run throughout, and country-style furniture is thoughtfully arranged to create a warm and inviting space.
A large living room sits to the side of the house, with a series of openings that lead out to the upper terrace, and a handful of sofas positioned beside the fireplace offer a comfortable place to sit or enjoy a cosy evening during the cooler months. An arched opening through to the kitchen, which has a typical farmhouse feel, and a dining table in the centre provide ample room for all the guests. To the rear of the house, a beautiful terrace enjoys views over the garden, and a dining table sits beneath the pergola with a lovely wisteria that winds down the pillars to the level below.
On the lower floor, an impressive library invites you to browse the high shelves and relax with a book, whilst to the back of the room, a large pool table and TV are perfect for kids to entertain themselves during the evenings or on rainy days. Sitting to the side of the house, a charming courtyard features a tiled patio full of planted pots, and a pleasant seating area offers the ideal spot for enjoying a coffee in the morning sun. The large grass lawn stretches away from the house, where you can enjoy a game of croquet or practice some morning yoga, and a beautifully planted pathway leads down to the lower terrace, where the saltwater pool invites you to cool off with a swim. A handful of loungers nearby are perfectly positioned for drying off beneath the sun or sitting around the table and enjoying lunch beside the pool.
The main house has four bedrooms for guests to choose from, each with its own character. The master suite sits to the corner of the house with double doors that open out to a private balcony, which you can leave ajar to enjoy a gentle breeze and the sound of the birds in the morning. The room features a large double bed, as well as a settee and traditional writing table. A second double bedroom also enjoys its own ensuite bathroom, whilst two further rooms with double zip link beds each have access to private shower rooms across the corridor.
The fifth bedroom can be found in the outbuilding, where a self-contained studio enjoys its own separate entrance. As well as a double bed and bathroom, the charming studio enjoys a small seating area and a little kitchenette offering independence to guests who want additional privacy.

For a sweet treat, head to the long-established Confiteria Rufino to enjoy some exquisite pastries and cakes that have been said to have been praised by kings.
