About this cottage rental

Description: Built designed & decorated by a sculptor & painter, 'la Bolina' is a unique, romantic holiday experience. It is a semidetached house that has been carefully designed by the same owner to maximise privacy to both properties.
Every detail of the house has been treated as art, from the polished concrete, wood & pebble inlaid floors to the hand furbished stainless steel & glass shower. Much of the furniture & all of the sculpture & painting is made by the artists. The house is situated in the foothills of the Almijara mountains that form part of the Sierra Nevada range. It looks across the olive groves & vineyards to Frigiliana a whitewashed mountain village & Nerja on the Mediterranean coast. Malaga airport is less than an hour away, & the city of Granada is only 100 km from Nerja. There is an unusually shaped black infinity pool that takes in the 360º breath-taking views. A stone barbecue overlooks the private swimming pool & the ever changing outdoor contemporary sculpture.

For those guests interested in sharing their holiday experience with friends or family, the neighbouring house is "el Morusco" property 6725879.





Situation: la Bolina' sits in the steep foothills of the Almijara mountain nature reserve & between three villages, Torrox, Frigiliana & Nerja. The roads are windy & narrow, with magnificent views of both mountains & sea. Granada, offering the Alhambra Moorish Palace & the Sierra Nevada ski resort is an hour & a half drive away. Cordoba & Seville two hours. We are also close enough to Morocco to be able to spend a day in Tangiers.

Frigiliana: Frigiliana is a beautiful whitewashed mountain village 6 km. from the coastal town Nerja. The old town dates back to the Phoenicians, the narrow cobbled streets wind between white terraced Moorish houses. The village sits on the edge of a mountain reserve that boasts many wonderful walks. Both towns offer numerous restaurants, bars & other entertainments.


Winter: From October through April there is always a possibility of rain, but now the chance of it is so remote, that we have come to welcome it when it does. It is a perfect time of year for those who enjoy the mountains, walking or exploring the surrounding towns & cities. Granada’s Alhambra, Seville & Cordoba loose the unbearable heat of summer & you have the tourist areas basically to your selves. Christmas & New Year are normally sunny & all of the restaurants are open, although most work with reservation on the festive nights. The Spanish celebrate New Year on the street, it begins with spectacular firework displays in every city, town & village & festivity continues well into the next morning. Spring here begins in February with the almond blossom & yellow clover that line the roads. It’s a good time to visit the little villages around our area & in the Alpujarra mountains south of Granada. If you are into skiing, the Sierra Nevada is famous for its slopes & is less than 2 hours away.

We had a great time and enjoyed everything! Thanks for having us.

My husband and I spent a week at la Bolina in early September. It was wonderful - the house is well-kept, quirky, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The art in and around the house is incredible and we loved 'discovering' new pieces each day during our stay (I think I came home with about 100 photos just of the art)! The directions to the house were absolutely vital in helping our journey in the hire car from Malaga airport and it's no joke to say we'd have been hopelessly lost without them - in fact, we DID get hopelessly lost one day out and about coming home from Frigiliana, but that's entirely on us! Rob, Maggie & Timsam were always on hand if we needed anything and are fantastic hosts. The area around la Bolina is beautiful, peaceful and interesting: we visited Frigiliana, Nerja and Acebuchal during our stay, as well as enjoying time just cooking and relaxing at the house. The week went all-too quickly and we'll definitely be back!

Nestled in the heart of nature, this property offers the perfect little escape. The highlight, without a doubt, is the stunning pool. The views from every corner of the property are absolutely breathtaking. The home itself is beautifully designed, blending seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to ensure comfort and relaxation.

We enjoyed our stay at La Bolina very much. The place is very kind and a has a good energy. The house is built and furnished with the signature of artists: individual and authentic. If you are looking for rest and a spectacular view we can recommend it 100 percent. Thanks to Timsam, who send us detailled information so that we managed to find the place easily. And thank you Maggie and Rob that we could take our dog with us. In Dec and Jan it might get cold in the night, so you better use the chimney and fire available olive wood, that gives a comfortable warmth and light in front of the fire place. Best regards, Joachim and Stefan and Fryne, the dog.
