Tucked away in the peaceful hills of Andalusia, Cantueso Cottages is more than just a holiday destination, it’s a feeling. A feeling of calm, of connection, and of pure, uninterrupted romance. If you and your partner are looking for a romantic weekend escape that combines nature, charm, and a touch of magic, look no further. Cantueso is the perfect couples getaway.
In this blog, we’ll guide you through why Cantueso is the ultimate spot for your romantic weekend escape, from its breathtaking views to its cosy cottages and everything in between.
1. A Place to Unplug and Reconnect
Let’s be honest – in our busy, digital lives, true connection often takes a back seat. At Cantueso, things slow down. Surrounded by the olive groves and almond trees of Periana, you’ll find the peace and quiet you’ve been craving.
Imagine waking up to birdsong, sipping your morning coffee on your private terrace with panoramic mountain views, and ending your day stargazing under the Andalusian sky. No interruptions, no stress – just the two of you.
Cantueso isn’t just a location; it’s a gentle invitation to reconnect with each other and with nature.

2. Cosy Cottages Made for Two
Each of our traditional Spanish cottages has its own charm, but they all share one thing in common – a warm, romantic atmosphere. With rustic details, wood-burning stoves, and soft lighting, your cottage is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring.
Whether you’re snuggling up with a glass of local wine or cooking dinner together in your fully-equipped kitchen, every moment feels special here.
Bonus: many cottages have private terraces with mountain or lake views – the ideal spot for a slow morning or a sunset cuddle.



3. A Romantic Meal with a View
No romantic weekend is complete without delicious food. At Cantueso’s on-site restaurant, you can indulge in traditional Spanish dishes made with love and local ingredients.
Set on a hillside, the restaurant offers stunning views over the valley – and let’s face it, everything tastes better with a view. Enjoy a candlelit dinner on the terrace, share a bottle of wine, and toast to your love.
Whether it’s a long, lazy lunch or a romantic dinner under the stars, our restaurant adds that extra touch of magic to your stay.
4. Explore Andalusia Hand-in-Hand
Looking for a bit of adventure to go with your romance? Cantueso’s location makes it easy to explore some of the best of Andalusia together.
Take a scenic drive to the nearby white villages of Comares or Frigiliana, get lost in the narrow streets, and discover hidden cafes and artisan shops. Or pack a picnic and head to Lake Viñuela for a relaxing afternoon by the water.
If you’re both nature lovers, enjoy a hike through the hills or a walk along one of the nearby trails – the views are always worth it. And for a taste of culture, the historic cities of Málaga and Granada are within reach for a day trip filled with art, architecture, and passion.

5. The Little Touches That Make it Special
At Cantueso, we believe romance is in the details. It’s the welcome bottle of wine waiting in your cottage. It’s the flowers we can arrange for your arrival. It’s the way the sun sets just perfectly over the mountains, painting the sky in shades of pink and gold.
We’re here to help you create memories that last. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourselves to a spontaneous weekend, we can help make it extra meaningful. Just let us know how we can personalise your stay.
