Overview
This studio cottage is the most intimate of the properties ranged around an award-winning estate near Aracena.
The hacienda is large enough so that each of the six quality Aracena holiday villas enjoys plenty of privacy and its own garden area. All around is an expanse of cork oak and chestnut forest and spectacular mountain scenery.
This is a gorgeous retreat near Aracena. The totally tranquil natural environment of a mountain retreat is meets a touch of class in its accommodation and facilities, which include tennis and a large swimming pool. It’s a place to relax, read, go on long walks – if you want to take a friendly resident dog with you, you may! – enjoy getting meals together in the fully equipped kitchen but, above all, to enjoy the comforts of your country home.
The estate is spread out over a large area and the houses are set well part to allow a full measure of independence and privacy.
This one-bedroomed cottage is built on raised ground above the river bank, ensuring excellent views are of the surrounding hills and the green valley.
It is made from local stone, fitted out and decorated to high standards. It is spacious, light-filled and superbly furnished. The main room has solid wood ceilings and the bathrooms is beautifully tiled.
It has a small furnished terrace for outdoor dining,
There is an additional common room: a very comfortable, sitting and dining room that is open to everyone staying here.

The Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche 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 Airport is also the closest, followed by Jerez, and Faro in Portugal.
Otherwise, exploring the beautiful Sierra de Aracena with its wild flowers in spring and excellent edible mushrooms in autumn. In special mushroom weeks, local restaurants produce some very tasty dishes.
The English, Dutch and Spanish-speaking owners live on site and are available to answer your questions and help with local arrangements.

YOUR REVIEWS
This holiday property was fantastic and we had a wonderful holiday. Firstly, it is in a beautiful location, surrounded by hills and woodland and many traditional villages. The local village Alájar is a 10 minute walk and had everything we needed. Locals are very friendly and supportive of visitors. There are many walking trails from the holiday property which are very well waymarked. Our hosts also had made laminated walking charts of all the local walks. The property itself was very comfortable and authentic and Peter andonica were excellent hosts and made us feel very at home. The house is in beautiful grounds with gardens, a pool and tennis court that we made good use of. There are 5 other houses on the complex all secluded so you are still private. I cannot praise the owners enough for the thoughtful design of the place. They had made a communal house for visitors to sit with DVDs, games and so forth. It was lovely. We will go back here."
