We have a 30x15 m dirt sports court with two indoor football goals, where we will soon install a small badminton/basketball court and a basketball hoop.

There is also a building 25 metres away, which on its highest floor and with access from the street has a large 150 m2 living room that can be used for celebrations or simply as a complement to the house. There is a large country fireplace in the centre of the lounge, smartTV, bottle racks, gas cooker with a 1 metre wide oven, video projector and screen, table games, armchairs and sofas for 15 people, as well as a large fireplace.

ACTIVITIES:

You can call us at any time during your stay, or even before arriving at the house, we will be happy to solve any doubts or problems you may have.
We can offer you a delicious paella, tapas, homemade food from the area, homemade sweets, etc...
We can take you to see how some of the most important olive oil mills in the world that are located in our municipality work. They can visit a factory where they make an exquisite traditional goat's cheese, or visit one of the white wine cellars of the Montilla-Moriles denomination which are 35 km from the house.
Recommend some of the countless walking and cycling routes that can be done from there.
We usually spend a day or two at the house on stays of more than a week to clean the pool, water the plants and chat with the tenants.

It is an ideal place to organise a special celebration, such as a wedding, christening, separation, etc... as we have an outdoor lounge of 150 m2 with kitchen. We can hire a private chef for a party, a masseuse for a day of pampering and even a bus trip to one of the nearby cities to attend a flamenco show.
