Ask a questionAbout Dr Antonia Riley
My husband and I regularly travel the world and between the two of us we have been in a few hotels and private houses! This has given us a bit of experience when we started our Finca in Agua Amarga, in the Cabo de Gata Natural Park, Andalucia, Spain. We want to present you, our guests, with a solid, safe yet exciting holiday. We do not want you to have to worry about extra charges, or bringing towels and facecloths, or having to go shopping the minute you arrive. The Finca provides you with all that. That's how we would like it: that's what you get! Welcome! Henry and Antonia Riley Finca Los Tigres
Dr Antonia Riley purchased this villa in 1999
Why Dr Antonia Riley chose Nijar
We found this Finca, situated in the Cabo de Gata Natural Park, some 20years ago in a dilapidated state. With the help of our dedicated Spanish team (architect, solicitor and builders) we created our dream house in Agua Amarga. The fact they spoke no English only made us more determined to learn Spanish! There were no dramas, only opportunities: Because we are in the natural park, building was even more restricted. It took 7 years and many set-backs but the Finca is now complete, with solar power, eco-walls and original vegetation. You can meet us on and we will be happy to welcome you in our part of the fascinating world of the Cabo de Gata. Henry and Antonia Riley
What makes this villa unique
Finca los Tigres is Far from the Concrete Jungle. The main wow factor is the stunning views combined wih the audible silence. Our guests all comment on the views and the silence, which is enhanced by the muted sounds of birds, cicadas and other little critters. The sunsets are spectacular because guests can sit on the terrace and not see anything but nature between them and the setting sun. The pool shimmers in the twilight. Some horses whinney in the distance. Life is good.
