Firewood for the fireplace and barbecue is included in the final price.
Traditional country house located in Sierra Morena, in the Los Pedroches region of Córdoba. It sits within ecological olive groves, the largest in Europe.
Our cortijo is 50 kilometres from Córdoba.
The house has 6 bedrooms, a large living room with a fireplace, a private pool, and a barbecue area.
You can enjoy hiking and nature watching. Nearby you will find charming mountain villages.
It is worth visiting at any time of the year: in autumn, when the fields turn green and the first fireplaces are lit; in winter, during the olive harvest; in spring, when the countryside resembles a garden full of flowers; and in summer, thanks to the swimming pool and the proximity to Córdoba and the rest of Andalusia.
Andalusia
Our house is close to Córdoba, home to major monuments such as the Mosque–Cathedral, Medina Azahara and the Royal Alcázars. If you visit in May, you can enjoy the Crosses Festival, the Patios Festival, and the Córdoba Fair.
You can also visit Seville and Granada, with the Alhambra.
From our cortijo, you can easily reach Úbeda and Baeza, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites and jewels of the Andalusian Renaissance.
Our region
Our region is attractive for countless reasons. We have the Cardeña–Montoro Natural Park, the largest reserve of Iberian Lynx in Spain. Our 17 villages are unique because, being located at the crossroads between La Mancha and Extremadura, they combine features from all three areas.
We also boast exquisite cuisine based on Iberian pork, with a Protected Designation of Origin for its cured hams. We have excellent beef and lamb, quality cheeses, and organic olive oil produced from the mountain olive groves.
Nature here is exceptionally rich, with diverse habitats such as dehesa woodlands and steppe areas where cranes feed in winter. Pure Mediterranean forest can also be found very close to our cortijo.
The mountains and our surroundings
We are in Sierra Morena. The Sierra de Los Pedroches has 10,000 hectares of organic olive groves, a testament to the hard work of the local people who planted them. Today, most of these groves are managed organically due to their low profitability.
Because of the steep slopes, some areas were never cultivated, and pure Mediterranean forest still survives there. These areas can be visited via the Peña Águila trail, which once connected the villages of Obejo and Pozoblanco. Today it is a beautiful walk with stunning panoramic views, where you can still see trenches from the Spanish Civil War.
