2 Private country cottages, panoramic views to Atlantic-near to beach

Finca Higueron is a ten minute drive from the golden beaches of El Palmar and Conil, and is an ideal location to combine all the pleasures of a beach holiday, with private, relaxing accommodation in quiet open countryside that has wonderful views. The two cottages are in the center of the property; to the east there is an orchard with mature figs, olives and almonds; to the south shrubs break up the views to Africa. To the west is a breathtaking view to the Atlantic, 6km away and a garden of citrus trees and vegetables; north is the main house and the guest’s private entrance. All the grounds are open to our guests. Each cottage has a private patio, with garden furniture, BBQ and mini pool with integral seating (2m X 2m by 0.75m deep). Separating them is a path that wanders through a large concealed tropical garden. The Finca provides easy access to many beaches and is central to local villages and towns. The countryside is perfect for walking, cycling, horse riding and bird watching.

Local towns and cities, away from the country

Although the southern Costa de la Luz is quiet and unspoilt by tourism, there are a number of white Moorish Spanish towns, with churches, monuments and narrow streets waiting to be explored. Within half an hour of Finca Higueron, are the towns of Vejer, Conil, Medina Sidonia, Benalup and Barbate. A little further away there is Tarifa, at Europe’s most southern point. There are views to Africa (17KM away) over the straights of Gibraltar. To the north the working city of Cadiz, steeped with history, is less than an hour away. It has very few big shops; instead there is a traditional Spanish city centre with churches and historic buildings, a large, busy, fresh meat, fish and vegetable market. Also there is the main port and long sandy beaches, and. For wine trips and tasting, Jerez, Sanlucar and Chipiona make up the world’s sherry triangle. While Seville, the capital of Andalusia and flamenco is a little further north.
