Andalucian country villa with pool, patio, gardens, views and tranquil setting.

A great place for a family get together or a group of friends to relax and unwind. Also popular with walkers and active holiday makers. Although semi-detached, the owner lives next door and you are assured of privacy. The loudest sound is usually the wind in the trees and the call of the birds like hoopoe and golden oriole. Finca Lucia has a small wood, wildlife areas, olives and 12 acres to roam around. There is a large, (12 metre) pool with a terrace alongside, and the shaded terrace at the front of the house is the perfect place to sip a drink or enjoy outdoor eating. If you can drag yourself away from the pool, there are mountain bikes to hire and miles of tracks to walk and explore. Discover the 'real Spain'. Nearby are beautiful natural parks, water sports on magnificent Lake Negratin, good shops, bars and restaurants, a fantastic Arab cave restaurant and spa, horse riding and lots more. Day trips to Granada, Mini Hollywood, the beach and explore the ancient culture.

Car: recommended

Finca Lucia is situated in peaceful farmland and olive groves, surrounded by mountains about 5 miles from the historic town of Baza. A little nearer is the village of Caniles, which has a pretty park with a bar to enjoy a cool drink and tapas (still given free with every drink). It is near the unspoiled and almost unvisited natural park of Sierra de Baza, where eagles and vultures soar. Spain's largest natural park, Sierra de Cazorla, is also nearby. This is 'the real Spain' with very little tourism, but lots to explore - like the archaeological sites at Gorafe and the 20 kilometre long Lake Negratin, whose waters are usually a fantastic azure blue. The finca is 800 meters above sea level and has a very pleasant, dry climate with low humidity. The coast is just over an hour away, and if you visit it you will pass through Europe's only desert. The city of Granada, with the magnificent Alhambra, beautiful gardens and fascinating old town always receives rave reviews!

Local activities tennis, cycling, horse riding, mountain biking, swimming, walking

Things to do

All sorts of outdoor activities, and we would be pleased to arrange a guide for walking, climbing, pot-holing, kayaking, mountain biking or almost any other activity. Horse riding is great here (no rain!) Finca Lucia also runs inclusive walking and activity holidays, and we have a fantastic guide, Manolo. With Manolo you will see all sorts of things and places you wouldn't find on your own. These are inclusive holidays with en suite room, breakfast, 4 course dinners with free wine and a good programme of walks and activities. Prices start from just £250 per person per week. Please contact us for our web site address, for more details. B & B is also offered for short stays.

Guest book

The peace and quiet of your little spot in Spain is sending us home refreshed and relaxed. We’ve really loved our stay at Finca Lucia. Brilliant base for experiencing Andalucia, exploring wonderful countryside and local culture as well as the fabulous city of Granada. On top of all this a very special welcome from two excellent hosts – it was incredibly relaxing and like staying with old friends. Food was amazing too. You could easily spend a week wandering the land at Finca Lucia – loads of wildlife to see. But we really enjoyed the activities with Manolo too – a superb guide and lovely to be with. What a fantastic week!!

Would you like to be really spoiled?

If you like to enjoy the freedom of your own house, but want to spend more time around the pool than in the kitchen, we can offer a catering service. As long as you book in advance, we can cook, clean and even do your shopping! We can do as much or as little as you would like.

Other Activities Mountaineering and pot holing, fishing and golf are not far away
