Traditional Andalucian Townhouse in the heart of the Old Town Frigiliana

Featured on 'A Place in the Sun'.
Casa Christina is registered as a Casa Rural CR/MA/01268
Charming village townhouse in the heart of the Old Town of Frigiliana (voted the prettiest village in Andalucia by the Spanish tourism authority).
Your first sight of Frigiliana will be that of the dazzling white houses and the Mediterranean sea in the distance just 6 kilometres away. The Axarquia region of Andalucia is well known for its 'pueblos blancos' but Frigiliana's historical quarter is generally considered to have best preserved it's Moorish charm.
Tastefully renovated to a high standard in a traditional Moriscon style, the house is an opportunity to enjoy the village life of this picturesque 'white painted', Andalucian town. A short distance away from the lovely coastal resort of Nerja and only 45 mins from Malaga airport.
The house is typical in style of many traditional houses in Andalucia and oozes charm and character. It is within walking distance of some superb restaurants, friendly bars and shops for essentials or beautiful local crafts.
It also retains some original features and we believe the 'cave' bathroom must be unique! The roof terrace is ideal for dining 'al fresco' or just for relaxing and enjoying the views.
It also offers a terrace on a lower level. Perfect for watching the world go by!
The delight of staying in old town Frigiliana is being able to easily explore the beautiful cobbled streets and discovering something new everyday! There is still a strong feeling of community in this lovely historic village and the mainly Spanish residents are friendly and welcoming.
There is a regular bus that runs between Frigiliana and Nerja. It costs 1 euro and only takes approx 15 minutes! Nerja is famous for it's beaches (ten in all , two of which have won Blue Flag awards) and for it's reluctance to lose it's 'traditional spanish feel'.
The buses from Nerja will take you to many places. A city break? Granada and Malaga are less than an hour away!

Traditional, quiet, beautiful.
Quaint, traditional Spanish house in the quiet, traffic-free part of the old town. The views are stunning, and we loved to watch the mule delivering supplies for the workmen every day ! We had to hunt around for restaurants/bars that were open after 9pm. The ants were a put -off in the kitchen and bathroom, but nowhere is perfect ! Buses were so cheap ! We came from Málaga airport to Nerja for €4.50 each ! The steps and steep streets are not for the elderly and infirm, but it is quite beautiful .

Very Pretty traditional home in Old Town Frigiliana
We absolutely fell in love with the house. It has a very cosy traditional style which fits the location perfectly. We spent a lot of time on the roof terrace, enjoying the roof top views across Frigliana to the sea at Nerja and watching the sun go down. Because the bedrooms are on the ground floor, they were cool and very comfortable. The bathroom was quite something! The fabulous, roomy shower was great. The starter pack is good value, at € 15. We especially enjoyed the home made piccalilli and the pineapple marmalade. It really helped us to find our feet with shopping. Frigliana is a beautiful base to explore the Costa del Sol and the mountains of Andalucía. We loved coming home at the end of each day to such a comfortable and beautiful place. Thank you

Wonderful tastefully decorated townhouse in the heart of Frigiliana.
We had a fantastic and very comfortable 2week holiday at Casa Christina. The village house is in the heart of the town but easily located after a few steps from the main square. The house is beautiful and full of facilities and the top terrace absolutely delightful.

Exceptional!
We absolutely loved our stay in Frigiliana and this apartment/house was the ideal base. It is right in the heart of the old town and a quick walk to everything. It is on a quiet street without cars so sleeping was excellent. The bedrooms downstairs stayed nice and cool and were a great place to retreat when it got hot outside. The third level with the kitchen has a wonderful balcony with an amazing view of the town and even the ocean in the distance. We alternated days in Frigiliana and the beaches at Nerja which were a 15 minute bus ride down the hill. Honestly, we loved this home more and more each day we were there. So much charm yet also very comfortable and convenient. Highly recommend.

Wonderful time in Frigiliana
We had a lovely stay at the townhouse. As a family of four with a baby and preschooler, we did think about booking something more practical (eg closer to coast, with nearby parking etc) but the atmosphere and location of the house made up for the slight impracticalities! The house was very well equipped and a great place to just do nothing in particular as you have the roof terrace to sit on, plus the beautiful first floor lounge with twin balconies. It's close to all the town's amenities so very easy to nip out and have a wander. We would definitely recommend the property to other people. Part of the charm of the house is it's roof terrace, balconies and open staircases and they would be a bit of a headache for families with particularly adventurous toddlers/small children, but for everyone else we wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Fabulous house in beautiful town
The house was perfect, all you could need plus lots more. Comfortable and cool when it was hot. Lovely decor and homely feel. Only improvement would be doors on the bedrooms for privacy . But we loved our stay and hope to return
