The Finca stands in a valley of its own surrounded by olive groves, guaranteeing unique privacy. The 100 year-old farm was built in the historic Andalucian "Cortijo" style with farmhouse, barn and stables arranged around a cobbled courtyard. Ancient wooden doors lead you into the courtyard which is perfect for a wedding, anniversary or birthday celebration. The Finca offers numerous opportunities for stunning photos and the views are awe inspiring.
The accommodation available for your wedding guests includes the 100-year old rustic Farmhouse sleeping 14, now sensitively and stylishly restored to its original grandeur. With seven bedrooms, three of which are en-suite, and a total of five bathrooms, two living rooms and a very spacious kitchen and dining area. Also The Casita is available to you, which sleeps up to 6 and is beautifully spacious and elegantly decorated. Containing 3 bedrooms (one double, one twin and another large double en-suite), shower room and WC, and a further WC. There is a spiral staircase within stylistic mezzanine gallery with view onto the valley to the south, a fully equipped kitchen and exceptionally spacious open plan living room.
Local cooks that we have known for a number of years provide catering on both a modest and large scale. Truly memorable celebrations have been held at The Finca with succulent and exceptional menus.
