The Nook
Canillas de Aceituno is a municipality in the province of Málaga in the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain. It is located in the east of the province and is one of the municipalities comprising the comarca of Axarquia and the judicial district of Vélez-Málaga. It is a small village, located at the foot of the "La Maroma" mountains in Spain and the start of the walk to the El Saltillo Bridge. Welcome to our authentic rustic cosy apartment located in the heart of Canillas de Aceituno. The Nook (El Recoveco in Spanish) is tastefully refurbished and decorated to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere. The property is located next to the main plaza and is well-equipped with everything you need. It has its own entrance and is not in an apartment block so you have total privacy for a comfortable stay. You will love the wooden beams and the rustic decor. The Nook is the perfect place to relax and enjoy stunning walks in the mountains and enjoy the town and its charm. 1 min walk to the central plaza which consists of various supermarkets, pharmacy, bank with ATM, cafes, restaurants, bars, bakery, butchers, fishmonger and tabac. Doctors and Dentist nearby. Public swimmi...
We chose this beautiful mountain town as we love hiking and walking and the stunning surrounding views that this area has to offer. Coming from a building and customer service background, we purchased our Apartment in March 2023. We refurbished it to create a typical spanish rental accommodation adding some english characteristics to the property at the same time. We completed the renovations ready for opening on 11th May 2023. We have been fortunate enough to be able to travel and work in and around Europe with an English and French camping company which involved meeting and greeting guests from all nationalities as well as preparing their accommodation to a high standard. We were also Maintenance Engineers responsible for the repair and maintenance of mobile homes on various sites throughout Europe.
The town of Canillas de Aceituno extends along the slopes of the Sierra Tejada to the La Maroma peak, the highest in the province of Málaga. Our town in the Axarquía region, is the perfect place to enjoy both nature and culture. The stunning Church of our Lady of the Rosary built on the site of the old mosque in the 16th century located 2 mins from the apartment.. Near to the starting point of the trail to the mountain peak of Maroma and the El Saltillo suspension bridge with stunning views.
