The attractively converted hay barn stands next to the old finca. The steps under a year-old carob tree lead you to a lovely shaded terrace on one side and to a balcony with stunning views of the almond and olive trees on the other. There is a cozy, modernly furnished living/dining room. The sleeping area is a step up hidden behind the kitchen. The finca is a 100-year-old farmhouse with a typical Andalusian look. Several accommodations have been made in the house while preserving the old elements and the Spanish atmosphere. Each house has its own terrace or balcony. Walking down through the garden beckons the pool with sun beds and hot tub (for a fee to use from Oct-March). The view, with the setting sun coloring the sky in tig shades of orange, is breathtaking. At night, thousands of stars twinkle in the sky in this place where it still gets truly dark.

Nature and surroundings

The highway from Málaga turns into a winding road up the mountain. The road turns into a wide dirt road and at more than 500 meters altitude you look out over the patchwork of the Andalusian interior. As you step out at the nature house you can hear birds chirping, crickets chirping or just a moment of absolute silence. There is a serenity that many a person craves coming from a hectic life. In the house are different accommodations made with preservation of the old elements and the Spanish atmosphere. Each house has its own terrace or balcony. Walking down through the garden, the communal pool with sunbeds beckons. The view, with the setting sun coloring the sky in tig shades of orange, is breathtaking. At night, thousands of stars twinkle in the sky in this place where it still gets really dark. The property's central location makes it very convenient for excursions. There are beautiful hiking possibilities in El Torcal, Caminito del Rey or national park Sierra de las Nieves, but you can also walk from the house along olive and almond trees. In season you can pick your own plums, grapes, almonds and olives.

    Small but nice cottage with everything you need. A little separate from the other cottages with beautiful views.

    The landscape in which the finca is located is breathtakingly beautiful. Although you are actually close to Malaga (±45 minutes drive from the airport), it feels like being in the middle of nature. The cottage is small, but nicely furnished and cared for. We were only here for two days, but could have easily and happily stayed much longer.

    The cottage is located slightly apart from the rest of the finca, among olive and almond trees. You overlook the surrounding hills and mountains.

    Casa Sofia is a romantic cottage for 2 people. It is small but cozy and fully equipped. The kitchen is well equipped so you can cook for yourself. From the terrace with the rocking sofa you can enjoy the beautiful views and sunsets. Next to the cottage is a large tree with a seat where you can sit in the shade. Also from the pool the view is beautiful. The pool is shared with the guests of 4 vacation homes on the property but is large enough with sunbeds on several terraces.A rental car is necessary because the finca is located on a mountain about 25 minutes drive from the nearest village. The last 2 km are unpaved but perfectly passable.

    Owners Robert and Pascalle make sure you feel at home in beautiful Andalusia and that you lack nothing. Their two dogs and cat often come to say hello or get a hug. We enjoyed this unique place with all its tranquility, space and beautiful views!
