The house has been tastefully decorated with old thick stone walls, terracota floors and wooden windows and doors for a very natural feel. Lots of light in every room, open plan living room. The house was renovated 5 years ago; all water supply piping and electrics are new. Sleeps 6 with possibility of 8 (if 2 sleeping in sofa bed in the living room).

Benaque is a small hamlet located 29 kilometres from Malaga (25 min drive) and 9 kilometres from the coast (15 min drive), at an altitude of 240 metres in the region of Axarquia.

Benaque was the birthplace of the poet, novelist and dramatist Salvador Rueda (1857-1933) whose work greatly featured Andalucian themes and to whom a small museum is dedicated in the village.

Benaque nestles in blissful countryside with a quaint, peaceful charm unique to the undiscovered Andalucia, perfect for ramblers, yet is just a short hop away from beachside resorts and the culture of Malaga city.

Benaque, as a hamlet, is administered by Macharaviaya, which is only 1 km away.

Macharaviaya is a historically important and picturesque village. It was well-known far beyond the regional borders for being the home of the noble Galvez family, whose descendant Matías Earl of Galvez had been vice-king of New Spain. Nowadays, Macharaviaya's population is merely a few hundred. The historical center of the village has a preservation order on it. Some Spanish and foreign artists, ceramicists, painters and writers live among the villagers.

In the summer, there is a communal swimming pool in Macharaviaya, entrance is only one euro. The swimming pool is lovely and very peaceful.
