Malaga Area cottage rent details
Casita Higuera
Spacious 1 Bedroom Casita [Apartment] consisting of Lounge, Twin bedroom, Shower room & Kitchen area.
The apartment is equipped with a Radio/CD player, small tv & video, heaters & air conditioning in the bedroom for summer.
There are 2 terraces, one for catching the breakfast sun & a lower one for sitting & having a drink whilst watching the sun go down over El Chorro.
The compact kitchen area has a fridge, hob, microwave, kettle & toaster etc. There is also a gas bar-b-q provided. However the prices for eating out here in rural Andalucia can be very low.
Location
Set in the countryside among the almond and olive groves with ever changing colours of wheat, anis & other crops. The views stretch for miles into the distance to El Chorro & El Torcal.
The villas are situated just outside the pretty barrida”hamlet” of Pastelero & St Maria del Cerro which is about 5 kms from Villanueva de la Concepcion to the East & Almogia to the West.
Pastelero has 2 very good local bar/restaurants which serve local tapas and meals with open air bar-b-q’s at weekends.
Please remember, this is rural Andalucia. Complete with donkeys, dogs & horses. Roads are not to the same standard as in the U.K. and if you are considering exploring the rural lanes,access can be difficult outside of the summer months. You may wish to consider a 4- Wheel Drive vehicle.
Around & about
Our nearest towns are Villanueva de la Concepcion & Almogia, typical Andalucian ‘pueblos’. There you will be able to buy most of your holiday needs. They have numerous small supermarkets, two banks, a pharmacy, a surgery, 24hr Ambulance & several bar/restaurants.
Villaneueva is overlooked by El Torcal, a massive limestone outcrop. Take a drive to the top and look out South across the valley and hills to the Mediterranean, East to the snow capped Sierra Nevada and West towards Ronda. Follow the marked walk where not only will you be captivated by the strange and beautiful rock formations but you may also see eagles, buzzards and vultures. If you are lucky you might even catch sight of the ibex that make their home up there.
A few kilomtres further on, the other side of El Torcal, lies Antequera. When the Romans discovered it, it was already 1000 years old. Stop for a drink on the terrace of the Mirador bar on the road into the city. Spread below you are the white painted, red roofed houses, interspersed with the towers of Antequera’s many churches. In the distance a huge rock emerges from the plain – La Pena de los Enamorados – from which, according to legend, two lovers, one Christian, one Moorish leaped to their deaths in a tragic suicide pact. This historic city is well worth exploring.
Flamingos at Fuente de Piedra
For those who enjoy a round of golf, the nearest course is in Antequera. In addition, the coast, which has an abundance of courses, is easily accessible.
This is a walkers paradise, particularly outside the summer months. Look for a hilltop, get prepared for some roughish terrain including some fierce thorns, and just follow your nose untill you get there. Expect wonderful views and, in springtime a profusion of wildflowers set against a backdrop of the greenest green you’ve ever seen.
Your villa is centrally located for easy access to Seville, Granada and Cordoba. Closer at hand, the city of Malaga is a vibrant blend of old and new.

Malaga Area cottage rent reviews
Review submitted by non-Villarenters customer: Dear Bryan and Jenny,
Thanks for the brilliant time we had at Casita Higuera. We knew that we were coming to a lovely view, but, we couldn't believe how spectacular it was.The wonderful views, the fine accommodation, the hospitality from you both and, of course,the welcoming bars in the village.We didn't have to go far to see good things. Antiquera was magnificent, El Chorro was great, El Torcal was not to be missed. We have gone home with such wonderful memories of Casita Hiquera. Please let us come again!!!!!
If you stumble upon this web site, as we did. Go no further !!!!!!! This is not to be missed !!!!
Best Wishes, and see you again,
John and Mave Parkinson. xxxxx
Dear Brian, Dear Jennifer,
We like to thank you for staying for 11 days at Casita Higuera. We left approx. at 7:10h and arrived at the airport, depending on a lot of traffic, at 8:20h. No difficulties with the car return and the flight, we arrived in Dortmund approximately 10 minutes later than proposed.
We spent beautiful days in the area around Malaga, if we have the possiblity for a weekend we will give you a ring or send an Email.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards and greetings from Sigrid
Wolfgang
Dear Bryan,
We had a wonderful holiday & want to thank you for your hospitality.We were very impressed with the facilities and felt that you had remedied the only defect by providing us with a cooling fan. Well placed for visiting other attractions ie lakes, El Torcal and Antequerra and it was set in idyllic rural countryside with stunning views. Shopping for food was quite convenient and the 2 bars in Postelero were very welcoming and good value for money. We would appreciate it if you would keep us informed of next years tariffs and any discounts on offer.
yours sincerely,
Pat & Dave Fawkes And Stella & Terry Devine
Hi Bryan & Jen.. Had a good trip to the airport and a good flight back to Liverpool.
