Cortijo Padre Avilés - Self-catering apartments in Málaga
Ctra. de Olias km2, 29018 Málaga
Andalusia,
España
If it's solitude you're after, Padre Avilés is one of the quietest and most relaxing spots in Andalusia, up in the hills 20 minutes from Málaga - and half an hour from the airport. It's a converted 17th-century convent steeped in history. And behind its walls lie seven excellently equipped and spacious apartments, each with its own front door and private terrace with barbecues.
Bedrooms are light and airy, bedding crisp and white, mattresses orthopaedic; bathrooms have decent sinks and pretty mosaics; the cabin-style kitchen-diners have wood-burning stoves for chillier nights and English and Spanish TV channels. Families will not want to leave: there are two separate play areas, bikes, tennis courts, hammocks and two pools.
Take a well-worn path round the 180-acre estate scattered with olive and almond trees, or make for the national park just up the road. The nearest village, Olías is 2kms away for a restaurant, Bar Juan.

Local points of interest from Claire & David Parish:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Claire & David Parish:
- Beautiful 17th Century convent with the most amazing views surrounded by 180 acres of Olive and almond trees. Great for total peace and quiet but only 10 mins by car from the local town.
- Unknown to most, Malaga (20 mins way) is a lovely city, with wonderful tapas restaurants, cafes and lots to visit. The new Muelle Uno in the port has recently opened offering a lovely stroll past yatchs, good shopping and restaurants.
- Visit the Alcazaba, Picasso Museum, Malaga Cathedral. Or why not venture to the botanical gardens, El chorro, Nerja, Frigiliana. So much to do and see in Andalucia the list goes on.
- We have wonderful pedestrianized promenades along the sea. Nothing nicer than sitting down having a Mojito or two and watching the restaurants preparing the sardines on the BBQs (old fishing boats) and seeing families out for their daily stroll.
- For the keen sportsmen and women, we are perfectly situated for great walks, runs and bike rides with a local bike shop renting great bikes. Whether it be for training or more leisurely cycles. Or just dip into the 20 m pool for those daily lengths!
