You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Villa Francisco

Ten minutes walk to Frigiliana, via a somewhat adventurous country trail.



Don't turn around when you drive to the villa for the first time. It takes a bit to get here by car, but it's well worth the journey! Once you are here, the owner will show you the way to Frigiliana across the valley, only a ten minute walk. The views and tranquility are exceptional, whilst inside the villa combines comfortable furnishings with a tasteful decoration. It's one of those places where you feel at home away from home.



Location and outside area

This newly built villa is positioned on a hillside opposite the white village of Frigiliana and surrounded by avocado trees, enjoying a very quiet location. The outside area offers a built-in BBQ and a good size pool (7x4 m) up a few Roman steps. There is plenty of space for sunbathing while enjoying the stunning views over the countryside and the village. Sun loungers are provided. Adjacent to the living room is another terrace for those looking for shade, with dining amenities and views. The villa is accessed by a concrete path that leads down from the Frigiliana – Torrox road, with a few steep sections. Although there aren't many curves, we recommend you drive a car with at least a 1.4 L motor.



Frigiliana (3.5 km) is approx. a 5 minute drive; however, if you prefer giving your car a holiday, there is a countryside trail to the village, only a 10 minute walk away (good shoes are needed as this walk has some difficulties - the trail is not recommended during night time because there are no lights along the path). The famous beaches of nearby Nerja are just 10 km away, a 15 minute drive.



Inside and lay-out

The comfortable and cosy open plan living/dining/kitchen area with views to Frigiliana has two French doors opening onto a covered terrace. The living room has a sofa for 4 persons, open fireplace, a rocking chair, and is provided with satellite TV and music equipment. The kitchen is fully equipped with fridge/freezer, ceramic hob with 4 rings, microwave, oven and dishwasher. The bedrooms (1 double, 2 twins) are decorated in a soothing style with colourful textile bedcovers and paintings. There is a full bathroom with an over bath shower, basin, and WC, and a shower room with basin and WC. A wood-burning stove and mobile electric heaters are available for the cooler days in off-season. WIFI internet connection provided!



Notes:

- Air conditioning is available throughout the house (free of charge).

- Pool towels are provided free of charge.
During your stay at this villa, you'll be within walking distance of The Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara & Alhama. Laundry facilities are available. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a private pool in the villa.

Fabulous villa with outstanding views

A great little villa just outside the charming village of Frigiliana. Fantastic facilities particularly the pool and outdoor bbq / kitchen area. We were a family group of 4 but it comfortably accommodates 6, well equipped main kitchen and a great terrace for dining. The views across the valley to Frigiliana were stunning especially when the sun was going down. The drive down the concrete track to the villa is fine for a regular car but is quite steep so be prepared.

Home from home outside of Frigiliana

We spent 2 weeks at villa Francisco. The first with our adult children and their partners and the second just us a retired couple. Booking and communication with agent was very simple and helpful. Access required a car with a decent engine and the confidence to drive on steep windy mountain roads. That said this access is easier than many villas we have stayed at. The villa had plenty of room for 6 adults and was equipped with everything we needed. Much has been said about the walk from the villa to town. It’s mostly on a dirt come concrete track. But half way you need to cross a short steep dry river bed. If we were wearing our uk hiking boots we wouldn’t blink but trying to negotiate this in summer gear and sandals was tricky. Us oldies managed it once. Our kids had no problems. Definitely not a nighttime walk. In the end easier to make the 10 minute drive! Villa and pool were spotless. The owner ( Francisco) was around most mornings ( early) cleaning and tending his fruit trees. Lovely man and a pleasure to chat to but he doesn’t speak English. Loads of wonderful places to eat in the village and if you want more then Nerja is about 15 minutes drive away. Good choice of big supermarkets. Lots of fridge and freezer space including a separate fridge freezer in the outside kitchen next to the pool, which was very handy. The outside kitchen was really handy and centers around a traditional Spanish BBQ. All in all a fantastic villa which we would happily recommend

Family holiday

The property was perfect, clean and exceptionally comfortable beds. Pool area stunning.However track to villa somewhat bumpy and dangerous at parts, especially when meeting oncoming vehicles. Description mentioned access but somewhat under described it.We are confident experienced drivers , this is not for the faint hearted. We never found the walking route to the village. We spoke no Spanish and were unable to communicate with the owner. Google translate was a step to far for him. So we were very disappointed as looked in vain for a passable route through the undergrowth to the village

Family holiday

We are a family of 4 with kids aged 14 & 11. The accommodation suited us perfectly, being all on one level. Spacious outside areas provided seating/lounging by the pool or on another terrace with stunning views in all directions. Good wifi and choice of english TV channels. The villa is maintained inside and out to a high standard by the lovely owners, who are on hand. Villa is well situated for accessing main roads for day trips and only a 10 minute drive to Neja and Burrianna Beach.

Simply perfect!

A beautiful villa in a beautiful location. Yes the driveway is challenging when you first arrive but you soon get used to it, and it means the villa is right in the heart of the valley with gorgeous views across to Frigiliana (in the day you can even walk across the valley into town!). Paco the owner was very friendly, I just wish I could speak better Spanish to tell him how lovely his villa is and how amazingly clean and well looked after it is.

Fantastic villa in a beautiful town

When we arrived at the villa and outside areas were spotlessly clean. The villa is really well equipped for cooking meals, and the outside BBQ area was brilliant and we used it most days. Rooms were all really comfortable and had extra blankets etc if it got a bit cold. Communication was great throughout our stay, the pool was kept clean too which was really nice! Don’t let the drive down put you off, it’s wide and concrete, and you soon get used to it. Walking down into Frigiliana across the valley is a good walk during the day but you couldn’t do it at night. Frigiliana is absolutely stunning and has great bars, shops and restaurants and is really authentic. Overall our stay here has been the best villa holiday we’ve had in Spain and would highly recommend!

Exceptional Location for Views of real Spain

Once you've negotiated your hire car down the 'rollercoaster' of a concrete track which leads to this beautiful villa you will arrive at a superb place. The missus and I took our 3 kids (13,10,4) and they loved it. The sleeping quarters are quite close together and within ear shot of the living room (all on same level) and the two bathrooms avoided the B4bed routine dramas we have at home. The terrace balcony is in shade for the afternoon lending itself to the ideal spot for a reading area while the kids go crazy in the pool. The BBQ area is excellent and fully equipped with huge fridge freezer and large cooking area with sink. The rest of the villa seems to have everything for all needs with nothing missing from the kitchen at all. Aircon throughout is so good that you'll need to turn it off at times. Great range to Nerja which has absolutely everything a family holiday needs but also within easy reach of Malaga, Torromolinos and Marbella. Well worth a visit. Only reasons for 4 in stead of 5 stars is the concrete track down to the villa and lack of at least one English Sports and or Entertainment channel for the massive TV for Mum and Dad to watch while the kids are in bed. Very quiet at night, ideal for family stay, we'll be going back I'm sure.

Fabulous villa - owners were exceptionally helpful and welcoming.

Couldn’t fault the villa in anyway - beautiful views, excellent facilities. The owners were exceptionally helpful and accommodating. The drive to the villa was rather steep, which was rather daunting late at night after a long journey with 3 children, but not a problem once used to it (and the car!)

Sehr erholsame Ferien

Sehr schönes Haus, großer schöner Pool, schön und bequem eingerichtet. Eines der shcönsten Häuser in denen ich bisher war. Hat Moskito Screens, was ich toll finde. Es liegt etwas abseits. Die Gehentfernung zum Dorf ist eher 30 Minuten und um Dunklen nicht machbar, aber wenn man sich an die Anfahrt gewöhnt hat ist es auch mit den Auto kein Problem unterwegs zu sein.
