Rural lodging with swimming pool in front of the Cueva del Gato, 9 km from Ronda.

Close to rock climbing, birdwatching, and more, this family-friendly villa brings it all within reach. Cueva del Gato is an easy 6-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Via Ferrata Benaojan.

Relax by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the garden of this 2476-sq-ft villa, which also features a deck or patio and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis and billiards, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and stereo.

As you settle into this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom rental, you'll find a living room, a dining area, a BBQ grill, and a fireplace. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
