Guests can help themselves to fruit from the fruit trees as well as lemongrass, mint, laurel and more from the well stocked herb garden.
A wide terrace stretches the length of the house, and a large dining table and built-in outdoor barbecue/kitchen area enable meals to be taken alfresco under the shade of the vines or in the open under the stars.

The farmhouse is very spacious and has been tastefully renovated in traditional Andaluz style. The interior is cool and airy even in high summer, thanks to the high ceilings with ceiling fans and the numerous sets of french doors leading out to the terraces and gardens. The house has a very individual feel with lots of little artistic touches. Look out for the lizard motifs, the handmade mosaics and the gorgeous miniature perfume bottle collection. A door leads from the kitchen-diner into a cosy den with French doors onto a terrace with corner seating. The den makes an ideal retreat to read or listen to music. There are hundreds of books plus TV, DVD and video, a large collection of films and a stereo and lots of CDs.
A step leads down from here to the pretty ground floor bedroom with doors leading onto a terrace garlanded with flowering climbers.
