Guitar Tuition:
The Cortijos co-owner, Mike Hynes, is a professional guitarist and would be delighted to offer lessons to guests whilst on holiday. You can borrow a guitar to play on your terrace whilst watching the sun set over the sierras…..
Although Mike lives in the Uk, he spends alot of time at the cortijo, so please ask in advance if you would like lessons. Guitars are always available to hire.
The Cortijo and Grounds:
Guest have use of the Cortijos large terraced pool (10m x 4.5m and 2 metres deep) and gardens. The pool is open from May until the end of September and is surrounded by the smells of lavender and rosemary. Within the gardens you will find an abundance of fruit trees and if the season is right, you can eat pears, cherries, mulberries, walnuts and apples.
Cortijo Cañada del Reguero is situated in one of Spain most beautiful places. It is a superb base for walking, mountain biking, bird watching and horse riding. It is also ideal for total relaxation.
Being only one hour from Granada and an hour from the coast, it sits in a magical location with easy access to the world famous Alhambra Palace and the mediterranean sea.
Being the home of Lucy, Mike and Patick Hynes, the cortijo is equipped to a very high standard with many things you would not normally expect from a holiday home such as childrens toys, dvd's, music and most of all a cosy comfortable home in a fabulous envirnoment.
