We chose to visit Vista del Torcal as we had seen it on 'Four in a Bed' and felt that it would suit our requirements perfectly. My partner's daughter had never been abroad before and we wanted to give her a special treat. So we booked for a long weekend in the family room, and Ben and Anna were efficient... More

Having spent three delightful nights at Vista del Torcal in October 2010 we had no hesitation in arranging a further stay towards the end of 2011. Wonderful memories came flooding back as we drove the short distance from Villaneuva de la Concepcion [an authentic inland Spanish village unaffected by the commercialism of the coastal strip] towards our destination. On arrival... More

We have just returned from a much needed short break and Vista del Torcal has been perfect. Anna and Ben are excellent hosts, they are happy to give as much information as you want on the local area but also happy to let you make your own plans. The Villa is in a beautiful setting, it appears remote but within... More

We have not visited since April but it seems so unfair that one scam review is still on the site - accusations of bedbugs is a (sick) joke. This place is spotlessly clean in every department - beds, rooms, eating utensils, eating area, lounge, pool I could go on. I know most sensible people will see the weight of excellent... More

We have just spent 8 wonderfull nights at Vista del Torcal and after reading all the excellent reviews we were not dissapointed. This truly is a special place so peacefull and relaxing, lazing by the pool surrounded by breathtaking views and being keen birdwatchers we were able to see Hoopoe, Bee-eaters, Griffin Vultures to name a few without even leaving...

We arrived looking for a well deserved rest and a taste of traditional Spain from the scenery the culture and the food mixed with with hassle free relaxation time. We found it all in one place!! Just 45mins from Malaga airport with the last 20 mins being thro breathtaking scenery we sensed we might be on to something as we... More

What a find! Best base to explore Andalusia. Agree with other 'excellent' posts, this was our first trip to Spain and we loved being nestled beside El Torcal with its rugged mountain top, fantastic variety of birds and lack of tourists. Pretty whitewashed villages and Antequera within short driving distance...although we did get lost on tracks to the Spanish Lake... More

The boutique hotel run by Anna and Ben is a real gem. Overall, the accommodation was excellent, with exceptionally friendly and professional proprietors Location: stunning. The drive from Malaga airport took us around 45 minutes, with very clear directions taking us off the main highway onto a winding country road via the local village, Villanueva de la Concepcion. The hotel... More
