Finca Ronda

Recently built 3 bedroom villa (sleeps 6) in a delightfully remote, countryside location surrounded by cultivated farmland and Mediterranean forest. All modern conveniences and décor is warm and cheerful. Private fenced off pool.
There is no TV in the house but there is a music system, shelves full of books and guides (in Spanish, Dutch and English). The swimming pool (8 by 4 meters) is surrounded by a child-proof fence. There is a pleasant lawn with sun beds and a bigger space for playing, barbecuing or making fires at night. Directly from home there is a lot of good walking along unpaved roads or further off the beaten track.
The Spanish/Dutch owners live just 100 meters away, but privacy is guaranteed. The family tries to live as self-sufficiently as possible. Francis keeps some animals and grows vegetables (all natural), and away from home he cultivates an organic olive grove, while Lies makes jams for local hotels.
Near home (a pleasant 15 minutes walk) is Arriate, a friendly village famous for it excellent tapas. The house is 8km from Ronda, in the heart of Andalusia. Inhabited since prehistoric times (early paintings are found in the nearby Pileta Cave), Ronda has always been an important centre and is one of Andalusia´s most-visited cities.
