Casa Ardales

I just visited Ardales (40 minutes from Málaga airport) and saw the most incredible property in the most stunning location. The photos don’t do it justice; the feeling and atmosphere of the area are overwhelming.

The property has everything one would need to create the most fabulous campsite for sale in Spain or to provide a millionaire countryside retreat. I didn’t want to leave. It reminded me of Barranco Blanco in Coin, which has the same sandy terrain with fir forests, a river flowing year-round, and rocky mountains full of wildlife.

With 40,000m2 of mostly flat land with trees for shade, its own private river for swimming, and a large, perfectly maintained 240m2 wooden main house that could be turned into a famous restaurant or a reception center for the campsite for sale in Spain.

If you are considering this property for your own millionaire retreat in the country, there is plenty of flat land to create a helicopter landing platform.

The main wooden property, imported from South Africa 18 years ago, has 240m2 built and currently features 3 very spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. A large kitchen and a huge, beautiful living room with a vaulted ceiling and a cozy central fireplace. Covered terraces, open terraces, and a pool.

The price is 690,000 euros. The property is legal with a first occupancy license. There are currently 3 stables and a feeding room, and the entire 36,000m2 property is securely fenced for dogs and horses.

The area would be fantastic for trail rides for a trekking center. There are 5 or 6 horseback routes through the mountains and sandy forests with panoramic landscape views.

The village of Ardales is an 8-minute drive away. Road access to the property entrance is excellent with a paved road. There is a 500m stone track to the property, but it is passable by a normal car.

Caminito Del Rey is just a 10-minute drive, as are the beautiful lakes of Ardales and El Chorro.
