Several people were trapped inside the two-story home, which is located on the back of the luxury urbanization.

It is not yet clear if the house belonged to the Brit, or if he was a holidaymaker, or Spanish resident.

He was pronounced dead in an ambulance after being rushed from the scene by paramedics.

This death is the third from fires in Andalucia in a three-day period after a couple in their 70s died in a blaze on Sunday, which was believed to have been caused by a stove. 

Alcaidesa is a popular golf resort, with two courses, which hosts visitors from all over the world.
