A fabulous old grain mill that dates back to before the 16th century that has been lovingly restored into a wonderful family home with character and charm. If you're looking for large villas to rent in Spain then look no further - the mill is in a truly inspirational setting on a private organic cattle and cork estate (1000 acres) within the Parque Natural de los Alcornocales, near the watersports town of Tarifa in Andalucia, Spain.

General Info

The building's unique character has been emphasised in its design, combining traditional with contemporary; a glass window in the floor downstairs sheds light on how the mill functioned and clever lighting highlights the columns and the archways stonework. Other original features from its milling past have also been preserved - the metre-thick walls and flag stone tiles - which help to ensure that El Molino is wonderfully cool even at the height of summer. Much like many villas for large groups and large villas to renta in Spain, the mill is just a short drive from the famous beaches of the Costa de la Luz and its magnificent wild oceanic scenery with Morocco as its backdrop!  Lots of the molino guests enjoy putting their children in the summer camp we organise at our farm school, just 1km from the house in the car, this runs from Monday to Friday from 9am to 2pm, the camp is all in english and the children learn all about how to look after animals, traditional outdoor games, walks and plenty more wholesome activities.

Accommodation Details

Interior Details
400m2 of living space. SONOS speakers. The downstairs is of a large open-plan design with vaulted ceilings that encompass the state-of-the-art modern kitchen with its enormous silestone work surface and breakfast bar. The kitchen is extremely well equipped; its six-hob range cooker (two ovens) and American style fridge/freezer/ice-machine make this an ideal setting to capitalise on some of the fantastic local produce (Algeciras market is a one-off, with the best in Mediterranean and Atlantic fish in the area, not to mention the plethora of Moroccan delicacies). Beyond the kitchen is the dining area with a large oak dining table. The sitting room’s focus is the nordic fireplace, with its sofa, and two armchairs. 

Exterior Details
The garden is out the back of the house on the entreplanta and it looks as though it goes on for as far as the eye can see, as the lush lawn tumbles away into the farm's pastures where the long-horned Retinto red cattle graze and the storks nest and clack. The rear terrace with a large banquet style wooden table and benches is ideal for entertaining and for protection from the midday sun, serviced by the industrial size stainless steel Weber barbecue! There is an outdoor kitchen on the rear terrace with natural shade under the fig and Judas tree. The outdoor kitchen includes cupboards with all plates, glasses, cutlery, a sink, fridge/freezer and dishwasher so guests do not need to remove things from the kitchen. The garden is very child friendly with a hammock in the wild olive tree, an in ground trampoline, a basketball net and a table tennis table. There is also a climbing frame with a slide and two swings and a trapeze. (Toys can be left for guests use, on request).
