The Siesta Club

A private pool and sun-drenched garden terrace are the heart of this villa in El Brillante, one of Córdoba's most coveted residential neighbourhoods. Long alfresco lunches, lazy afternoons on the sun loungers, evening meals with the water glinting nearby – the outdoor space lends itself to all of it. Inside, a fireplace and garden views make the living room genuinely hard to leave. The villa sits within easy reach of the city centre by bus, and a supermarket is just a short walk away – useful detail when you'd rather spend the day poolside than hunting for provisions.

Home truths:
* The pool is open between 1st April and 31st October only, so if you're visiting outside those months you won't be able to use it.
* The villa sits outside Córdoba's city centre, but you won't need a car if you'd rather not drive. A local bus stops right outside and gets you into the centre in around twenty-minutes, running every thirty-minutes.
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair. Make sure to request these in advance of your arrival.
* For those with reduced mobility, there's a ground floor bedroom and bathroom here.
