Description from owner

Description

The property is a typical Andalucian stone built farmhouse ,Cortijo la solana was built around the turn of the century and tastefully converted by the owners David and Diana Worthy who in a 'former life' ran the very successful ceramics business - CRICH POTTERY , back in Derbyshire , England. They are now turning their hands at being part time farmers tending to a small herd of Alpacas plus other four legged friends which they keep here on their small farm. . The accommodation consists of the main farmhouse ( CORTIJO LA SOLANA ) which has 3 double bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom , large living/dining area , open log fireplace and kitchen with all normal facilities including washing machine. It will sleep up to 6 adults.

There is TV plus DVD and WiFi internet access. Outside you have a large, private, patio area with lots of outdoor seating, BBQ etc and swimming pool with child friendly Roman style steps (7x 4 m).

Please note La Casita which sits alongside, is a separate accommodation ,however guests renting the Cortijo can reserve the whole property for a small extra cost. Please ask about this . ( For details on the Casita please see separate listing on this site )

We invite you to come and stay with us on our small farm here at Cortijo la solana, where we have created , in this privileged environment, what we feel to be an ideal rural retreat. With stunning views to the Mediterranean coast and the surrounding sierras, this is the perfect location for anyone wishing to experience the real Spain. Enjoy the many wonderful animals we have here - alpacas, donkeys, peafowl, hens, turkeys, cats and dogs. You may not want to venture out but if you do there are numerous opportunities in the area for all kinds of outdoor activities such as cycling (mountain bike & road) walking, rock climbing, horse riding and bird watching. The ancient town of Antequera is only 25 min drive away, plus you are ideally situated to make day trips to the historical cities of Granada (1.5 h drive), Cordoba (2 h), Seville (2 h). Plenty to do and see, with the city of Malaga and all the attractions of the Costa del Sol only a short drive away (40 min) should you wish for it.
