Casa del Arte is a large apartment for rent in one of the town's most historic Moorish houses. It is situated just a two-minute walk from the town’s centrepiece, the Plaza de España - a popular meeting place with many Spanish-style bars and restaurants, and a magnificent ornate fountain at its centre.

The flat blends traditional Moorish features with modern facilities. The interior has been completely redesigned, utilising the large floor area to stunning effect. Hand-made terracotta tiles run throughout the property, with hand-stained doors and Arabic metal lanterns giving their own special and individual flavour.

Casa del Arte is situated on the first floor above an art gallery. The common patio is entered through thick wooden doors and then a wrought iron gateway so that it feel like a hidden and secure gem. The thick walls of this historic building protect those inside from the July and August heat.

Inside the apartment there is a wonderful feeling of space and light. Through each window is a wrought-iron balcony with typical Spanish rolldown shutters. An iPod docking station and speakers and widescreen TV is also provided, along with a DVD player and a selection of popular films and books.

There are two bedrooms - both are doubles - and a camp bed can be supplied if required. There is also a sofa-bed in the living room. Each bed has pure cotton sheets, pillows and duvet covers and fresh towels are provided.
