Photos and Description of the Alhaurin de la Torre holiday chateau / country house

Rancho del Ingles has much to offer. The original farmhouse is over a century old while the rest of the property has evolved over the last 20 years. The rustic farmhouse is a romantic setting for a couple or small family group while the main house, a few metres away is spacious, rustic yet grand, can accommodate 6 or 8. There is also a pool house with two futon beds, shower and w/c, and two annexes, each with twin beds and ensuite shower/wc. The property is secluded but not isolated with many terraces and separate areas. Within the spacious grounds orange, lemon and avocado groves, woods, a stream and mature shrubs give a wonderful sense of well-being. Teenagers enjoy chilling in the pool house so you don't need to drive them to clubs on the coast and the pool (with shallow end) is raised making it safer for toddlers. People of all ages love the space and freedom so much they often prefer to stay put than go exploring. Please email to receive a plan of the property.

Details for The Main House

This is a very impressive house which has been built with imagination over the last 20 years. Few people guess that it is not an original building as it is home to many interesting and antique features. There is a massive reception room with high ceiling, wood burning fire, beautifully carved Indian furniture and a dining area with candlearbra and huge old pine table. To the side is a spacious kitchen with further dining space and solid wood units. Up the spiral staircase within the tower is a double bedroom with and ensuite shower-room which is outside (but protected from the elements) and is arguably one of the world's loveliest places to start your day. There is a raised Punjabi bed in the master bedroom on the ground floor which has dual aspect windows overlooking a stream and mature trees. Outside there are several terraces, so you can chase the sun or the shade, and a marble table beneath an old lemon tree provides an ideal spot for lunch or a barbecue in the evening

Fifteen minutes from Malaga airport, but not on the flightpath, Rancho del Ingles nestles peacefully in the foothills, just outside the small, busy town of Alhaurin de la Torre. It's well situated for driving to the coast and inland destinations such as Granada, with its magnificent Alhambra and gardens; the old hillside village of Mijas, famous for its spectacular views of the coast; Ronda with its medieval bridge spanning a 500 ft gorge and much more. Seville can be reached within two hours by car or train. The local town is about 20 mins walk, or a few mins drive and provides bars, restaurants (which welcome small children) and cafes; tennis; open market and shopping. Malaga, often overlooked, is close and has much to offer including: the new Picasso museum, the cathedral and the Alcazaba. Aquapark, a water amusement park; Seaworld, Crocodile Park and Plaza Mayor with cafes, shops and cinema showing English films, and an 18 hole golf course are all within short driving distance.
