The atmosphere is peaceful, laid-back and idyllic and we believe the finca and surrounding areas offer our guests the opportunity to get away from it all, take it easy and relax in breathtaking surroundings, whilst also being a central and convenient location for the more adventurous to explore the historic and cultural towns and cities of Southern Andalucia such as Sevilla, Granada, Ronda, Cadiz and Jerez.

The stunning, long, virtually deserted sandy beaches of the Costa de la Luz, Cadiz province can be reached in approximately 2 hours and are a haven for wind and kite surfers or if you wish to whale-watch, trips are arranged daily from Algeciras or the straight of Gibraltar.
