Torre Morralla

Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled in the heart of the Montsia district in Ulldecona's broader region of Spain, Torre Morralla is a remarkable "rustico" cottage steeped in history and natural beauty. This extraordinary holiday rental takes its character from a 16th-century stone defensive tower, surrounded by a private pine forest that frames sweeping views of both the sea and the surrounding mountains. Situated above Alcanar Playa, outside the resort area and approximately 3 km from the centre of Les Cases d'Alcanar, the property sits just 750 m from the sea, offering a genuinely secluded and authentic retreat for those seeking something truly exceptional. The cottage benefits from a private terraced garden filled with mature trees, providing shade, privacy, and a profound sense of tranquillity. A round swimming pool with a diameter of 6 m and a depth ranging from 70 to 120 cm is available for guests during its seasonal operation from 17 April to 15 October, though it is worth noting that the pool is located outside the tower's fence, approximately 100 m from the main building. Reliable Internet WiFi keeps you connected throughout your stay, while on-site parking accommodates up to 4 cars, making it convenient for guests arriving by vehicle. Please be aware that the motor access road to the property is very bumpy, and a car is strongly recommended for reaching and exploring the surrounding area.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces at Torre Morralla are among its most captivating features, offering a series of distinct areas designed for relaxation, dining, and recreation within a naturally beautiful setting. The private terraced garden, richly planted with trees including the surrounding pine forest, creates a serene and shaded environment that feels entirely removed from the outside world. Throughout the grounds, you will find various dedicated areas where you can dine al fresco, sunbathe at your leisure, or prepare a delicious barbecue in the cool shade of the pine trees, making the most of the warm Mediterranean climate. An outdoor shower is conveniently available on the property, ideal for rinsing off after a swim or a day at the nearby beach. The round swimming pool, measuring 6 m in diameter with a depth of 70 to 120 cm, is privately accessible and operational from 17 April to 15 October each year, offering a refreshing retreat during the warmer months. As the pool is situated approximately 100 m outside the tower's fence, a short walk through the natural surroundings brings you to this peaceful aquatic space. The entire outdoor setting is further enriched by panoramic views of the sea and mountains, creating an atmosphere that is both dramatic and deeply restorative.

Other Information

Torre Morralla carries a remarkable historical legacy as a genuine 16th-century stone defensive tower, and this heritage is palpable throughout the character of the property. Guests should be aware that there is a cement factory located approximately 300 m to the southwest of the house, which operates on a continuous basis and may be perceptible depending on wind direction and time of day. The motor access road leading to the property is notably uneven and bumpy, and it is strongly recommended that guests arrive by car, as personal transport is also essential for accessing local amenities, beaches, and attractions in the surrounding area.
