The house is located along an ancient route that connected the coast with the interior\u00a0through hills dotted with Neolithic settlements. With spectacular views of the surrounding\u00a0landscape, the house began as a resting place for travelers going through Puerto\u00a0Blanquillo pass.<\/p>\n
Today the place is surrounded by peace and tranquility, wild fauna and flora, olive groves…\u00a0The farmhouse has been the home of different generations who have tilled the land\u00a0surrounding it.<\/p>\n
It is located at the foot of a hill that was planted with almond trees, hence the beautiful\u00a0name of the farm: El Cerro del Almendral (Almond Grove\u2019s Hill). Unfortunately, many years\u00a0ago there was a big fire that burned almost all of those almonds trees… but the farmhouse\u00a0always retained its name. Over time the mountain has recovered and is now covered with\u00a0oaks, almonds, broom and a variety of wildflowers and grasses.<\/p>\n
Sustainable tourism that respects the environment is very important and therefore we have\u00a0built-in features that make it possible. The use of renewable energy: solar power for hot\u00a0water, underfloor heating and cooling system. The wood used in the fireplace and barbecue comes from the\u00a0prunings of the olive trees that surround the farmhouse. Rainwater is harvested and stored\u00a0in a water tank, which together with the water from a nearby spring is used to irrigate the\u00a0garden, keep the pool full and flows through a fountain whose sound relaxes and\u00a0refreshes.<\/p>\n
From the panoramic terrace you can enjoy beautiful sunsets that invite you to eat al fresco\u00a0what you cook on the barbecue… in an oasis of tranquility.<\/p>\n
We offer quality accommodation in the countryside of Western Granada where you can\u00a0relax and enjoy nature with family or friends. The farmhouse keeps many original features\u00a0where we are sure you will enjoy a break with authentic Andalusian flavour.<\/p>\n
It is located in the district of Loja, the most important of the region. The house is 20km\u00a0from Loja, 4km from Ventorros de San Jos\u00e9 and Zagra and 1 km from La Vi\u00f1a (nearest\u00a0villages with shops and restaurants). Its central location gives easy access to the\u00a0provinces of Granada, M\u00e1laga and C\u00f3rdoba.<\/p>\n
