El Cortijo

El Cortijo is set in the most luxurious fourteen-acre garden, with an abundance of fruit trees and a horse paddock in the heart of the Andalusian hills. The villa has been restored without getting rid of its wonderful character and features and is a gem to stay in!

With seven bedrooms, all being en-suite except for one, and a solar-heated pool hidden away from the house, it is ideal for a family holiday. On the ground floor, you will find the fully-equipped kitchen, the spacious and comforting living and dining room, and two of the seven bedrooms. These bedrooms both have private access via the exterior, so they are great for those who want a bit of privacy. Upstairs are the rest of the stunning bedrooms, with most of them featuring a choice of either a super king-size bed or two twin beds, making it even more accessible for several families. Most of these bedrooms also feature en-suite bathrooms, except for one that has access to a shared bathroom.

Moving on outside, this is where you will really get to experience the beauty of Andalusia. El Cortijo is located in the gorgeous mountains of Andalusia. On the grounds, guests have the opportunity to relax in the green gardens of this property, lay in the hammocks, say hello to the horses in the paddock, and lounge by the pool. The solar-heated pool even has its own shower, covered terraces, and a fully-equipped kitchen for when you feel like some al-fresco dining! A recently added floodlit full-size padel court completes the exterior of the property. Ronda is the closest village and roughly ten minutes away. Jerez, Sevilla and Malaga are all worth the visit if you have the time and are all about an hour and a half away.

El Cortijo is a little piece of paradise. A place to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of southern Spain and a base for adventures beyond. A luxury villa built with love and made for hospitality.El Cortijo is in the heart of Andalucia, approximately a ten-minute drive from Ronda and 45km from the Costa del Sol set on the top of a mountain range and divided by one of the world's most impressive gorges. With its staggering views, Ronda is the place to visit if you are wandering through Spain. Its surroundings are so romantic, and its pace of life is wonderfully slow.

The closest city to El Cortijo is Marbella, a place for the luxurious. Marbella and its close neighbour Puerto Banus are renowned for glitzy entertainment, culture, fantastic gastronomy and boutique shopping. Plaza de Los Naranjos, the old part of Marbella, is beguiling with Arabic characteristics and overflowing balconies adorned with beautiful flowers. The narrow streets surrounding the beautiful plazas are full of chic bars and restaurants and charming shops offering souvenirs, olive oil, local pottery and lace. Plaza de la Iglesia is very beautiful and often hosts markets and concerts.
