Less than 5 mins walk, on proper pavements with streetlighting, to restaurants (including Moorish and Traditional Spanish), bars, supermarkets and pharmacy, but completely private sitting in 2000 square metres of land. Walking distance to 2 other villages with restaurants, shops, bars and banks. The beautiful beaches of Nerja, Torre del Mar and Algarrobo are within 20-25 mins drive. The house is accessed by tarmac road, so no need to rent a 4x4 vehicle. The house is well equipped and furnished and is maintained by a local British couple. The property is light and airy in the summer but cosy in the winter with a wood burning stove and warm aircon units. Archez is a 1 hour drive from Malaga airport and 1.5 hours to Granada and 2.5 hours to Seville. The villages of Canillas de Albaida and Corumbella are within walking distance. The resorts of Nerja and Torre del Mar are half an hour away. Skiing in the Sierra Nevada is 2 hours drive and there are two 18 hole golf courses within easy drive.

Beautiful location, beautiful scenery
Very private property in a lovely village. Good location to visit surrounding white villages and only half an hour from nearest beaches. Lovely walks in surrounding area and a good few restaurants to choose from in surrounding villages if you are there for a longer period of time. Would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful house overlooking a quaint village
Casa de La Flores is a beautiful house in a stunning location. The only downside are the hills up to the house which are not for the faint hearted! We used Maria’s taxi anywhere we wanted to go, but in truth we spent most days at the house by the beautiful pool. Margaret the owner was amazing to deal with before and during our stay. We couldn’t fault the house itself, or the pool it truly was beautiful.. the pool was a perfect depth and size for us and our 2 kids (13 and 12) hours of sun and fun was had!! Truthfully you are only 5 mins walk from the village of Archez but a car would be advised if you want to explore, we didn’t do a lot so it was perfect for us! Although the hills up to the house were a struggle, what awaits at the top is fab! Carl the guy who looks after the property and cleans the pool even gave me a lift to the next village up as I needed the pharmacy! So lovely and the local people are lovely and so helpful! We visited the other 2 villages above Archez, Canillas de Albaida and Competa and tried a few local restaurants which were fab! Thanks again Margaret for sharing your beautiful house with us.. Kind regards Irene and family

Relaxing holiday with friends
This is our second stay at at this villa. Very comfortable and relaxing holiday in the beautiful peaceful village of Archez. The house and garden is well kept, as is the pool which is regularly maintained. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The beds are very comfortable and all windows are secured with mosquito screens. Since our last visit air conditioning has been installed. The terrace has a comfortable seating area perfect to watch the sunrise or relax in the evening, there are also two outside dining tables and a bbq. The owner Margaret was helpful with her advice before and during our stay. Great base for visiting surrounding villages with a superb choice of restaurants. A five minute walk down the road you will find an outstanding steakhouse, cafe bar and small shop. Thank you Margaret and Brian for sharing your home with us

Private, well-equipped, clean and modern villa with great views
Family of fours stayed for a week. Had a fab time. Pool was great - not massive but big/deep enough for four adults to have fun. Fantastic views over the nearby valley and villages. The villa is very private not overlooked by anyone. Árchez is a beautiful village with a few restaurants and bars. The owner (Margaret) is easy to communicate, very helpful with lots of great advice. All and all, we had a great family holiday in La Casa De Flores.

La Casa de Flores
Excellent villa in a quite location overlooking Archez. The villa is well equipped and comfortable set in lush gardens. The pool is well maintained and ideal for splashing around in and having fun. The road up to the villa is very steep and you need a car and be willing to drive on Spanish mountain roads. This is perfect for a quite getaway and a relaxing holiday.

The Hidden Villa
Our second stay. Last year it was very (as in very very) hot. The veranda and pool are cooling and perfect to stay put if it gets too much. This year we had two days of terrible storms and 3 good days of warm weather. The property faces the sun in the morning and this helps warm everything up quickly. So you can dip in the pool. When the lightening and thunderstorms appeared we could watch them skirt the Valley from our high vantage point. This year we decided to eat-in more and cook with local ingredients and the kitchen was fine for that. And there’s a teapot! But there’s plenty of local places to eat too. In short it is a home from home high in the Spanish hills. You can’t go wrong with this one.

Our Home for 2 Months
We chose a property for its location near more than one Spanish village, as well as a location for exploring walking and hiking trails. The house was perfect for 2 and in a most interesting location! The road from the A7 up and we mean up to Archez was high and curvy. One really had to concentrate because the views were incredible, and for the driver there is no sight-seeing. To be fair you can stay in the area of Archez without a vehicle, as the walking is beautiful between the villages and really you can get all the supplies you need between the three towns - Archez, Canillas de Albaida, and Cómpeta. You must be quite fit though to navigate the steep hills on foot and roadway up to the house very steep (but on the plus side, a short climb). We loved La Casa de Flores for views it afforded down onto the town of Archez and up to Canillas de Albaida and across the narrow valley. This was truly a home away from home!

Ls Casa de Flores
We booked a week's stay at La Casa de Flores at the end of October/beginning of November 2022. The property owner (Margaret) could not have been more responsive to my queries or helpful with her advice, both before and during our stay. The property itself is very well equipped and comfortable throughout. We had a lovely time and really enjoyed our stay. It was pretty much everything we were hoping for: good accommodation, fine, warm weather, lovely walks, and all the many and various pleasures of Spanish rural life. Many thanks.
