Casa Las Lunas
�Casa Las Lunas� is a white Spanish house, with magnificent mountain views and surrounded by olive groves. This lovely detached house is in a small cortijo with a cobbled courtyard and natural spring. There is plenty of walking and hiking through the groves and rugged mountains. You may see eagles while out walking and there are song birds around the property.

The villa has a large, comfortably furnished living room with TV, DVD player, open fireplace, and unusual mosaic style lighting panels. The front door leads from this room to a barbeque terrace with lovely views. Through two archways is the very large fully equipped, eat-in kitchen and wood burning stove, with a door to the sameterrace. Adjoined is a separate laundry facility with a fully automatic washing machine. There is a pretty tiled bathroom with double basins, wall-size mirror, bath, shower, suite and bidet. Upstairs are two large bedrooms, plenty of beds for visitors and children, and a cot and highchair can be supplied. The landing area with sofabed and table is perfect for a children�s project and play area, and a lockable door leads to the upper terrace with balustrades, enjoying panoramic views of the mountains. In the large garden is our own enormous rock with shade trees, and the area is cooled by mountain breezes in summer.

Just seven miles from the ancient town of Antequera, and within easy access of Malaga airport (45 minutes), �Casa Las Lunas� is near a wealth of architectural interest. Cordoba, Seville and Granada are all within easy reach by road. Nearby villages of Villanueva del Rosario and Villanueva del Trabuco are both good shopping centres, including antique and gift shops with, restaurants, bars and banks.

History, culture, Festivities and Markets
Antequera�s ancient history begins 4,500 years ago, when, during the Copper Age (Megolithic times) the �dolmens� or burial caves were built. The Moors and Romans followed later, leaving their individual architectural styles and remains, and most interesting is the Alcazaba Moorish fortress which presides over the town. Renaissance culture and art are also in abundance in Antequera. There are at least thirty churches with wonderful interiors and sculptures of notoriety.

Ancient Cave Paintings

The Cave of Dona El Desfiladero gorge has unique 20,000 year old paintings.


Antequera is renouned for its many celebrations of Christian Feasts throughout the year, in particular Holy Week, and holds Spring and August Fairs. In January, Kings Day is an important Christmas festival. The Bullring lies at the foot of Antequera, and there is a market once a week nearby. You can find a market somewhere in the region each day of the week, selling anything from local produce to antiques and flea market fare. In local villages you can see the running of the young bulls during summer months.

Jan says: "Casa Las Lunas, is such a typical white Spanish house it was exactly what we wanted. It was fabululous to sit on the terrace and watch the sun rise over the mountains. It was so peaceful and you would never know that the freeway is 2 minutes drive away which gave us very quick easy access to many places, The coast, Malaga, Granada, Ronda, Gibralta and not forgetting the beautiful town of Antequera only a short drive away. We found many interesting things to do and see quite nearby including El Torcal, Wolf Park and Flamingo lake. "
