Stunning rural retreat, ecologically managed, Vejer de la Frontera
This property is ideally located in an unspoilt corner of Andalucia, just minutes away from the miles of the golden undeveloped beaches of the Costa de la Luz. It is an idyllic Spanish country finca peacefully hidden within a protected Natural Park in a valley by the sea, with wonderful 180’ degree views West up to Vejer de la Frontera. An organic ecological private finca, the existing buildings were completely renovated and rebuilt in 2004 to retain its traditional simple local character and charm and it is currently run to a high standard, offering five quality self-catering properties on a year-round basis.
There are over eight acres of mature trees, orchards and gardens, with a new lake in the water meadows. At the heart of the finca sits the original farmhouse (cortijo), which has been carefully restored with four en-suite bedrooms, spacious living areas and its own private infinity pool. Tucked into the private grounds there are three further separate large country cottages (casitas) re-built in a traditional style, with two each offering three bedrooms and the third divided into two individual attached properties offering one and two bedrooms respectively – sharing a second pool with a large sun terrace.
A few minutes walk away sit the private parklands of Dehesa Montenmedio, which offer golf, equestrian, two restaurants and art centre. Nearby are many traditional seaside towns and villages with a range of excellent local restaurants and activities, while the more famous cities of Cadiz, Jerez & Tarifa are within 45 minutes and the more flamboyant Seville or even Morocco are under two hours away in each direction.
Already a very successful eco-tourism business, this finca offers a rare opportunity with an enviable location and further potential – the local village has recently been urbanised yet it remains within the highly protected National Park so views will remain unspoilt, while the original footings to the rear of the Cortijo and grounds of the finca would allow for sensitive development. Projects such as a small luxury country hotel, spa retreat or simply a private family estate, could all offer excellent return on investment. The property will be sold partly furnished and is already connected to 2 water wells for drinking water (mains water available), 2 x electricity, telephone & wifi. The property has an average occupancy of 80% a year.
