Casa Isabella is an old two-storey olive pressers cottage - white-walled, intrinsically Spanish and lovingly restored. It is set in the Andalucian mountain village of El Burgo in the heart of the Sierra De Las Nieves National park and is 20 minutes from historic Ronda & the Malaga lake district.
Located in the quiet outskirts of this pretty mountain village, and leading straight into the countryside, this little villa in Andalucia within walking distance of all amenities including the village pool and many excellent typically Spanish restaurants and Tapas bars, where you can experience the atmosphere of a truly Andalucian white village. Perfectly situated for a walking holiday in a stunning part of Spain.
In the village itself, there are still two working olive mills producing olive oil and there is a village pool, which is set in its own gardens, and is open from June to September. There are also many marked trails for everything from gentle strolls through to long hikes along the river Turon. Within an hour of this villa in Andalucia you can reach the beaches of San Pedro De Alcantara and Marbella and sit and have a seafood lunch at one of the many cheringuitos ( typical beach restaurant ). Nearby Ronda has an impressive 18th century bridge spanning the El Tajo gorge and has one of the best preserved Arab baths in Europe. A 40 minute scenic drive through the mountains will take you to the Malaga Lake District, where you can walk and swim, or just sit and enjoy a good lunch overlooking the panoramic views of the lakes.
