• 4 Bedrooms • 2 Bathrooms • Splendid views • Private Pool • Sympathetically renovated • Organic Vegetables available (when in season) • Flamenco nights (arranged on request) This is a fabulous andalucian cortijo that is totally authentic, which has recently been restored. It occupies a splendid position with no other properties nearby. The villages of Arriate and Seteñil, with restaurants, bars and shops are ten minutes away, whilst the town of Ronda is twenty five minutes by car. The views are excellent and the surrounding countryside the finest you will find in Spain.
The pool area is in an elevated part of the garden to appreciate the rolling hills around the property. The swimming pool measures 9x5 meters with full filtration system and has thatched umbrellas for shade. A long refectory table with seating for ten people is provided for outside dining with a built-in- barbecue. There is also delightful flower - filled courtyard in which to relax.
Inside the house is a large thirty feet room that contains the sitting room, dining room and kitchen. It is has a beamed ceiling, an exposed stone wall and a large open fireplace. The kitchen has a four- ring gas hob, oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. There is also a small snug sitting room and a square hallway filled with local artifacts.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, three with double beds and one with three single beds. There are two bathrooms with shower, basin, lavatory and bidet, one on the ground floor and one on the first floor.
The cortijo makes its own wine from a small vineyard and once a year in
the second week of September the grapes are harvested and crushed in the
courtyard. The wine is stored in large barrels in the bodega, which is
maintained by a family who live in a completely separate part of
the cortijo. There are some farm animals in the fields around the
cortijo, including horses, pigs and two dogs. This is a rural
property that may not suite everyone but for those with a farming
background would be ideal.
