We've rounded up 18 of the most beautiful villas to rent in Spain. Where better to spend the summer than a refurbished 15th century chapel in the Andalusian countryside, a traditional Catalan casa where you can watch the sunset over the Bay of Roses from the rooftop pool, or the laid-back and luxurious Ibizan villa where Kylie once stayed?
West Wittering, West Sussex
A glorious swathe of golden sand - unusual on the south coast, which is mostly rather painful pebbles. West Wittering gets busy during peak season, but the beach is large enough that you can usually escape the throng and when the tide’s out it feels like the beach goes on forever. There’s a carpark, toilets and a dog-friendly cafe.
Dog are welcome but there are some restrictions: from the 1st May to mid-September dogs are not allowed in the area in front of the beach huts.
Stay at The Thatched Cottage West Wittering a charming cottage for eight, plus two dogs, with the beach on the doorstep.
