The Area
 

We are very fortunate that Cortes de la Frontera is still very much 'real Spain', a very friendly traditional 'Pueblo Blanco' with it's own bullring. With the back drop of the 'Sierra de Grazelema' & bordering the 'Alcornocales Parque Natural'

The very pretty station of Estacion de Cortes with it's single track railway gives the opportunity to leave the car behind & visit neighbouring pueblos, go for a wander, lunch & return 'home'! You also have the opportunity to take the train to Granada, just over 3 hours away, or Seville & stay for a night or two taking only light luggage, leaving the rest with us. We will take you to the station (5 minutes) & pick you up on your return.

Ronda is set up on cliff tops with spectacular views, Spains oldest bull ring & the amazing 'El Tajo Gorge' dividing the centre. In this area there are rugged limestone landscapes & gorges interspersed with white villages & a growing number of vineyards of which there is one situated next to us. Gaucin is one of the local villages with a lovely mountain top setting with views to Gibraltar & across the Mediterranean to the Riff Mountains of Morocco.

A visit to the coast is less than an hour away, a little longer for Gibraltar or Estepona or one & a half hours to Puerto Banus or Marbella.

In the next village down the valley there is a restaurant where they cook over a wood fire. It has a relaxing ambience that allows you escape into another world. The drive to it, through the forest if you wish, makes it even more delightful expecially if you spot some wild deer!

A visit to the coast is less than an hour away, a little longer for Gibraltar or Estepona or one & a half hours to Puerto Banus or Marbella. (although it is easy to forget they exist) '

Local produce includes walnuts, goats cheese, preserved chestnuts in brandy, chorizo, venison, wild boar, wines from the Ronda region & the famous 'pata negra' preserved ham from the black pig. Also beautiful natural handmade soap, cream & oil scented with many lovely herbs & flowers.
