The Sierra de Aracena is an unbeatable natural area of southern Spain and this particular corner is very special. Relaxation, river walks, visual splendour and gastronomic satisfaction are just a few of the attractions. The hospitable facilities provided by the friendly owners include vegetables from their market garden and tips for the best restaurants in charming little Alajar village, whose whitewashed houses and cobbled streets are only a short walk away.
Alajar village is a delightful 20 mins stroll away. It’s a quiet, attractive village with good restaurants. Interesting excursions will take you to the Peña, or cliff, above Alajar and further afield to Rio Tinto (ride the train through the old mines), Almonaster La Real (visit the mosque within the castle) and Jabugo village (for superlative Iberian cured ham).
For a special day out and a city experience, you have exuberant Seville 90 mins away, Andalucia’s capital and one of the most attractive cities in Spain. Seville's airport is the closest, followed by Jerez and Faro in Portugal, which has many budget flights.
Otherwise, exploring the beautiful Sierra de Aracena with its birdlife all year, wild flowers in spring and excellent edible mushrooms in autumn.
The English, Dutch and Spanish-speaking owners live on site and are available to answer your questions and help with local arrangements.

YOUR REVIEWS
Rustica were very helpful booking out holiday hone in Spain. They suggested several options and we ended up in the perfect spot. Thank you"
+ Read moreHA12(6) is a very special place. The owners Peter and Monica have created a beautiful, tranquil oasis in a remote area just a short walk from the small, compact mountain village of Alajar. The gardens at Molino are lovingly maintained, the pool and tennis court never too busy and always felt like our own. The six houses are fairly secluded with private terraces and views across the Sierra de Aracena. It was a real treat to pick fresh herbs and vegetables from the garden and another reminder that we were sharing Peter’s and Monica’s home, not just renting a holiday property. Simply, Molino is authentic rural Spain, uncynical, homely and so welcoming. We felt genuinely sad when it was time to leave and, as if they knew, two of the five friendly Molino dogs came to our house, sat quietly and watched while we packed our things and tidied up. We will return!!"
