Casa Roberto has been in the present owners family for many years.
The house dates to 1950 and has a history from Spain’s dark ages.
In fact, under the house was an actual shelter where people went into hiding during searches.
The old double wall can still be seen. Today, the cellar is used as a bodega for the barrels of the typical sweet country wine. The house is located a few steps from the lively main square in the center of the town.
The property is located in Canillas de Aceituno, one of the attractive white villages at the foot of the Sierra Tejeda and Almijara Natural Park. It is a unique area for hikers and other mountain sports enthusiasts.
You can even reach a height of 2079 metres on La Maroma, the region’s highest mountain. From the heart of the village starts the new hiking trail ‘El Saltillo’ between Canillas de Aceituno and Sedella, where you cross one of the three highest and longest suspension bridges in Spain.
In the village, you can find all the amenities you need for everyday life.
There are a host of restaurants and bars where you can go for a delicious meal or a drink on the terrace. Within 25 minutes, driving through beautiful countryside, you can reach Vélez-Málaga and the beach of Torre del Mar.
The city of Málaga and the airport are a 45-minute drive away and Granada, plus the Sierra Nevada ski resort, can be reached in about 2 hours.
