Nestled in the picturesque valley of Llano de la Cruz, just a 10-minute drive from the historic town of Ronda, Casa la Maga offers a truly authentic Andalucían country escape. This scenic area is renowned for its rolling meadows, patchwork fields, local wineries and a delightful network of rustic lanes with typical country homes – perfect for walkers and cyclists seeking to explore at a gentle pace.
Uninterrupted panoramic vistas stretch out ahead on all sides from the thoughtfully designed terraces and attractive poolside of this charming home. In the distance, beyond gently rolling fields and meadows, the dramatic peaks of the Sierra de Grazalema form an imposing backdrop that becomes even more magical as the day fades and the setting sun casts a warm glow over its darkening silhouette.
This same view can be enjoyed from inside where a bright open-plan living room incorporates kitchen, dining and sitting areas alongside a large picture window that frames the mountain vistas and fills the room with natural light.
Thoughtfully designed to ensure that outdoor living will be at the heart of any stay here, smartly furnished terraces adjoin the house on both sides. To the rear a shaded outdoor dining area with in-built barbecue is perfectly equipped for relaxed evening meals al fresco whilst to the front soft seating invites guests to sit back and unwind with pre-dinner drinks as the sun sets. The spacious pool area, surrounded by soft artificial grass, offers plenty of room for both relaxation and play.
With its 360-degree views, restful rural setting and the gentle soundtrack of nearby farms, Casa la Maga captures the essence of countryside living and yet at the same time its proximity to the vibrant culture, history and amenities of Ronda makes it ideally placed for guests wishing to mingle with the locals and soak up the atmosphere and heritage of one of Andalucía’s most picturesque towns. Wine lovers will be delighted to discover the local ‘bodega’ which offers tasting visits amidst its vineyards just 450m from the house whilst for a more rustic experience a 600m walk will reveal a traditional ‘venta’ where simple, locally prepared lunches capture the true flavour of the region.
