Luxury one bedroom Casita, Iznajar, Cordoba

Come and stay in luxury accommodation in rural Andalucia and enjoy a holiday in at a fantastic location.

La Loma is the ideal place to holiday at any time of the year as we have central heating in both casitas.

La Loma is a hilltop hideaway set amongst 4 acres of our own olive groves with magnificent panoramic views over Lake Iznajar, the charming villages of Iznajar and Rute and the surrounding mountains. Set on the edge of the Sierra Subettica, it is an ideal location for those seeking peace, tranquility, hillside walks, bird watching, painting/sketching and as a base from which to discover the cultural delights of Granada, Cordoba, Antequera, Ronda and Seville. Recently restored to include all the comforts of modern day living, there are two detached self catering casitas. There is a 10m by 5m swimming pool and outside, each casita has a private terrace and BBQ.

We are within 1 hour’s drive of both Granada and Malaga airports.

Activities
Golf
The nearest course to La Loma is the new course at Antequera. All 18 holes are challenging with plenty of water, narrow fairways, olive trees lining the first cut and subtle borrows on the greens. There are many interesting holes, a few spectacular ones and the views around the course are wonderful.

There is also a club at Granada, 50 mins drive, where non-members are welcome on weekdays. The famous golf courses of the Costa del Sol are approx 1 hour’s drive. Both Antequera and Granada green fees are considerably lower than on the coast and the courses are better than most public courses on the Costa.

Skiing
The Sierra Nevada Mountains are around an 1½ hour’s drive away and the Sol y Nieve resort hosted one of the 1996 world ski championships events. It is smaller than other Nieven resorts (though much friendlier than some of the other more famous European resorts) it has sufficient runs to satisfy all standards of skier and boarder.
