Casa Luis townhouse for up to 7. Roof splashpool, stunning views, great location

Michelle and Ian purchased Casa Luis i4 years ago and set about restoring and renovating it to be a lovely holiday home. Michelle is a painter and furniture restorer and has handpainted much of the furnishings to retain Spanish charm while being bright and airy. Michelle and Ian split their time between Scotland and Spain and while in Scotland, guests have our friend Jo, who has lived in Riogordo for many years, as a source of help, information and is on hand for any emergencies.

The village's location nested in the hills in the heart of Axaqrquia also provides an incredibly convenient base from which to explore many of the most beautiful towns and beaches of the South of Spain. By car, Malaga Airport is only a 40 minute drive, slightly less to visit Malaga City, Ronda and Cordoba are an hour and a half, Granada an hour and twenty minutes, and Seville two hours by excellent motorways. Closer to the village, the historic town of Antequera is just over half an hour, as is the beach resort of Torre del Mar - a popular holiday destination for Spanish and full of fabulous restaurants and bars including along the wide, safe, clean beach. For those who love adventure, group organised hiking, mountainclimbing and the longest zipwire in mainland Spain are only 20 minutes away at the stunning fortified town of Comares while the world famous Caminito del Rey gorge walk is also around an hour from Riogordo. Closer by the the beautiful Lake Vinuela, where you can go kayaking, cycling, fishing, paddle surfing or simply relax by the banks of the lake with a picnic. In Riogordo itself, there is horseriding, take in part of the Olive Route walk that travels through the village and if fortunate enough to visit Riogordo in April , guests can witness El Paso, one of the most well known religious celebrations in Spain which attracts visitors from far and wide, or in August, when the village again comes to life with the annual Feria, 4 days of celebrations day and night including the nightly candlelit procession through the streets.
