About this property
Well-maintained, independent finca in the foothills of Andalusia, just for you
Fuente de Hierro, the "iron spring", has been the name of the country for many centuries on which your finca with old trees stands. Even the Moors stopped here on their way from the coast via the Sierra to Granada and fetched their water here. During your stay on your finca you can have approx. (2x) 150 m² living space (ground floor, upper floor) with weather-controlled underfloor heating. The pool is heated on request. Depending on the position of the sun, you can choose between an east, south or west roof, pool or grill terrace. You can enter the ground floor either directly from the large parking lot via the dining room or via the living room / south terrace. The kitchen, all doors and cupboards were made by a carpenter from Vélez-Málaga for Fuente de Hierro. Natural and earth colors characterize the interior of the finca. The walls have been specially cleaned in a rustico style, just as the fincas all looked much earlier. You are the only guests. :-) Finca Fuente de Hierro has its own private pool. You are always the only guests. Finca Fuente de Hierro (approx. 1,500 sqm) is 800 m high, is built on two floors and has 150 sqm on the ground floor and 140 sqm on the first floor. You are always the only guests and can enjoy your vacation with up to 10 (max. 15) people. Depending on your taste, you can retreat and enjoy the peace and quiet on the various spacious terraces, or socialize with the others in your group or with your family members.
The pool of Finca Fuente de Hierro is approx. 9m x 4m in size, with pool interior lighting and can be heated by arrangement. The counter current system is also available.
Finca Fuente de Hierro has quiet microprocessor-controlled air conditioning systems. The weather-controlled underfloor heating is simply very pleasant, especially for the transitional period or for the winter months. The system is mainly powered by the sun through solar thermal panels. The auxiliary heater for low-solar days is a quiet heat pump. Of course bed linen and towels are available for you, the two kitchens are fully equipped. Especially the washing machines (incl. Washing powder) are welcome for our guests with children: just wash your clothes so that they are fresh the next day, your luggage will be easier. Hiking (maps in the living room) in the Sierra de Almijarra / de Tejeda nature park and golfing on the coast (Baviera Golf) are possible. This is the ideal place for individual holidays for lovers and demanding people. You will find peace and relaxation here and are the only guests. You will be looked after by our lovely administrator Candido.
