My favourite Spanish property

Finca el Tornero de Abajo

This Spanish finca is a recent addition to http://www.oneoffplaces.co.uk/ and is not only utterly gorgeous, but amazing value as well.






Set in a National Park, this is a stunning property, modelled on an old Spanish ‘cortijo’. Being only a kilometre from Aracena, it is within easy walking distance of the town, yet wonderfully secluded, tucked in around the side of a hill, giving breathtaking views over the Aracena reservoir and away to the far off peaks of the Badajoz province. Just as perfect for 2-4 people, as it is for 6-8.






The house is built on an L-shaped design with towering wooden-beamed ceilings that keep the house cool. In one leg, the huge well-appointed kitchen leads through a wide arch into a beautiful sitting room, off which three French windows open out onto a large balcony. In the south facing leg, along a passage, are the spacious bedrooms, kept cool during the day by the dappled shade of chestnut trees. There are two ensuite bedrooms, one with its own balcony, and two with a shared bathroom / shower. The beds in three of the rooms can be either doubles or two singles. Downstairs there is a large playroom / dormitory with a pool table and DVD player and television screen. There are four sofa beds, two double and two single, and a shower room leading off. On the north side of the house, there is a laundry and a self contained apartment with a ‘Scottish’ double bed, kitchen, seating area and shower room.

Price starts at £700 for one week (bargain when shared between 6-8 people). Find out more by visiting http://www.oneoffplaces.co.uk/viewPropertyDetails.aspx?ID=291
