The house is set in over 4 acres of almond & olive trees in stunning private surroundings in the spanish countryside, but is only 10 minutes from the traditional white Spanish villages of Riogordo and Colmenar and only 35 minutes from Malaga airport.
The house sleeps up to 14 in 6 large bedrooms - two doubles and two twin bedrooms upstairs and two double bedrooms with an extra single bed in each downstairs. The downstairs bedrooms are not connected to the upstairs by an internal staircase but are easily accessible via the pool area. The modern kitchen is fully fitted including a dishwasher. The main living area has air-conditioning for the summer & heating for the winter. TV with DVD and broadband internet access is included. The house has a full size pool - 8m x 4m - with plenty of space around it for sunbathing. In addition there is a separate large games/utility room with dartboard and pool table and a laundry.
Please note that being in the countryside there is approximately 1km of bumpy dirt road from the main road to the villa, so you will need a suitable vehicle. See the photos.

“Lovely villa, but a few things let it down for us”
Having been in Spain for a week we arrived at the villa on a Sunday afternoon, awaiting the arrival of our friends later that night. We'd spent a lot of time finding a villa that suited our needs… More

Response from the owner So glad you had a good holiday, although if internal access to all bedrooms was considered essential to your holiday, it may have been a good idea to check with us before booking. This is the first time in 10 years this has been raised as a complaint. With regard to the local wildlife (woodlice, wasps, geckos), this is really outside our control - probably to be expected when you book a villa in the countryside, although the dog must belong to a local farmer. Nobody has this mentioned this before and we have certainly never seen a dog on the patio. A 4x4 is most certainly not essential for drivers comfortable with driving on dirt roads. The guests immediately prior to your stay had Opel Corsas and said they managed fine. We have even had someone with a BMW Cabriolet stay and couldn’t understand why we had warned them about the dirt road!

“Gorgeous Villa, very spacious and well equipped”
We spent a week at Cortijo Piltraque in July. We were a family of 14 of various ages from 9 months old to 72 years old. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate us all. The kitchen was very well equipped to prepare more or less everything that you would cook at home. There were also 2 BBQs (a gas and a charcoal one) which we used most nights. The pool was lovely and clean with plenty of sunbeds and loungers. This is a great place to stay, very peaceful and picturesque. We found the track from the main road to the villa challenging at the beginning specially as we arrived in the dark, but got used to it as the week went by. However, we would recommend hiring a 4x4 vehicle and definitely NOT a low axle one! We received an excellent service from Colin and Mary who were extremely helpful.
