20 mins from the buzz of Costa del Sol and Torre del Mar brings you to the peace and spectacular scenery of traditional Spain where dazzling white-washed villages cling to the hillsides and the sights and scenery enchant year-round. Here lies the Axarquia region with a reputation for the best climate in Europe which, steeped in history, has much to offer for exploration and sense-of-place, from the plethora of traditional villages to the Nerja Caves' magical formations. Malaga has a beautiful historical centre - and excellent shopping - while Antequera and Granada are within exploring range. The beautiful drive from the coast brings you to Sierra Tejeda National Park and Canillas where potted flowers decorate the side-streets, mules and goats studiously ignore humanity and the village ladies practice their flamenco. Walk, paint, photograph, picnic, listen to cicadas, taste local wine, sample village specialities – or simply enjoy the tranquillity and comfort of Casa Convent

This place is perfect for a tranquil holiday as well as a base to see most of southern Spain. “ Trond and Shelley. 18-25th June 2009 'Thank you for letting us stay at Casa Convento - we thought it was lovely. What a tribute to your skills as a designer! It was a joy to feel the space you have created, yet to be in a village house among the others in the street. Such a lovely village too: The people are delightful.' J & P Blake. ' What a wonderful internet find! We must have looked at 50 properties on-line and chose this one because it looked so delightful. Sometimes internet finds are disappointing, but this was even better than we anticipated.... A beautiful house (with a great kitchen!) in a lovely village.

Blissful Mountain Location

Ceramaya Barcelona
Review Submitted: August 25, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We –a family of four (children aged 12 and 14) - have just returned from a week in mid August. Casa Convento is ideal for chilling out, unwinding on the lounge terrace while taking in the breathtaking views of the Alta Axarquía in the Malaga mountains, or just strolling through the winding streets of Canillas de Aceituno. Then coming back for a cooling dip in the pool and sunbathing/reading on the roof terrace, before a leisurely meal/barbeque in the evening soaking up the sunset. Yes it really is that good !
The photos on the website looked impressive and lived up to expectations on arrival. Suzanne’s customer service and attention to detail in the decoration and furnishing were much appreciated giving the house a wonderful sense of space and light. The kitchen is well equipped and made self-catering a pleasure- especially the dumb waiter to carry up the heavy shopping!
Casa de Convento is also an excellent base for exploring the region -day trips to Malaga, Frigiliana, Granada and for walking in the mountains that are literally behind the house. The village has shops for basics and if you really feel the need for a huge shopping centre there is one only 20 minutes away.
I would recommend this house to couples and families with older teenage children and those that love walking. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your fine review of Casa Convento and the location; my aim is to provide the highest possible standard of accommodation and to maximise my guests' pleasure during their stay, so it's very pleasing to know when it is working! Suzanne

Beautiful and typical moorish house

Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Dear Suzanne,

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Convento. You decorated the house very well to give it a wonderful moorish style.
The swimming pool was also perfect to relax.

Best wishes.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your 5/5 rating! Such things make having guests at Casa Convento such a pleasure for me!
Suzanne
