Six apartments in a beautiful Andalucian farmhouse looking out onto a stunning lake. Even lake views from the bed! Amazing sunset views from the terrace every evening. Small private beach 100 metres from the apartment. Not a house in sight - completely secluded. National park with spectacular scenery right outside the apartment door.
This lovely rural finca, specifically for adults only holidays, is a great place for a tranquil break in in one of the most peaceful and unique parts of Andalucia next to the “Embalse de Guadalhorce” lake, and just 45 mins. from Málaga airport. Enjoy the silence, discover wonderful hiking trails, or head onto the lake on a kayak.
Our finca is located near Ardales and El Chorro, this area is a true Mecca for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, no matter what age. By the lake there are various restaurants and picnic sites as the area is a quite popular excursion spot. Here you have the option to do water sports such as kayak or canoeing. You can even fish in the lake, we have two fishing rods for your use. The neighbouring villages are Alora, Antequera, Pizzara, Bobadilla and Campillos. El Torcal is close by and spectacularly formed from limestone weathered over eons of time and its moon-like landscape makes it a "must see" attraction. By El Chorro you find the most overwhelming natural gorge, here an enormous rock has been divided as with an axe and the edge is very sharp and narrow, it is called La Garganta del Chorro; the throat of the spring.
