THE AREA, ENVIRONMENT

The house has beautiful sea and mountains views and is surrounded by a garden, pool with solarium space ,outdoor tennis table ,barbecue space , parking , avocados grapes and olive trees
Costa del sol - Axarquía ,country, has the best climate in Europe: Until a few years ago when rural tourism took off, Axarquia was one of Andalucia's forgotten areas. Major attractions are the spectacular unspoilt countryside and coastal villages. The hill and mountain scenery are ablaze with flowers and blossom from January onwards. Shepherds lead their goats and sheep through hills and valleys, eagles soar the skies and pretty, unspoiled white villages abound, each having a version of local sweet wine made from sun-dried grapes.

Axarquia is riven with deep valleys lined with terraces and irrigation channels that go back to the time of Muslim occupation. Almost all the villages dotted with olive-trees, almond and vine-planted hillsides are of Arab origin and the influence is seen in the layout of the narrow, winding streets lined with white-washed houses reflecting the sunlight.

Land of contrast: Axarquia is a land of contrast where high mountains look down upon the beautiful beaches of the Costa del Sol. The highest mountain, in the northeast of the area, is La Maroma which reaches an altitude of 2,080 metres and is snow-capped in the winter in contrast to sunbathers on the beaches below from November to May . Skiing is enjoyed in Sierra Nevada resort, less than 1,5 hours drive away. There is also a wide choice of golf courses and other sports available all year round.

Archaeological remains from Phoenecian, Carthaginian, Roman and Arab eras dot the countryside and coastline, whilst artifacts dating from 30,000BC to the Bronze Age can be seen in underground caves notably at Nerja and Rincon de la Victoria
