Welcome to Cortijo RosarioA renovated farmhouse and apartments in the heart of Andalusia. Whether you are looking for a peaceful family holiday in “the real Spain” or fancy a slightly more energetic walking holiday and discover all that Andalusia has to offer, Cortijo Rosario is the perfect destination. We welcome guests all year round and can accommodate groups of up to 15 people in the Cortijo. The Cortijo has a swimming pool with a wide view and privacy. At Cortijo Rosario we pursue a responsible tourism policy. We attach importance to supporting local products, traders and companies wherever possible. The Cortijo faces east toward the sunrise on the slopes of the southern sierras in the province of Seville, the heart of Andalusia. From a dilapidated old farmhouse built in 1891, it has gradually developed into a beautiful vacation complex. The Cortijo (farmhouse in Spanish) sits on 10 acres of its own land, partly olive trees and partly virgin forest on the steeply sloping hillside. It is just a kilometer away from and overlooks the village of Algámitas, with just over 1,200 inhabitants. On the first floor there is a large dining room with enough seating for 22 people and French doors to the terrace. There are plenty of tables and chairs on the front terrace and two covered patios if you want to dine outside. If you cook for yourself, you have access to our fully equipped industrial kitchen. The Cortijo has a comfortable sitting room with a crackling fireplace; ideal for winter. Our bar has a television. Free WIFI is available throughout the cortijo. On the ground floor is a checkroom with two toilets and sink. Laundry facilities are available. Bedding and towels include pool towels. The Cortijo is cleaned at the beginning and end of each stay. The Cortijo is within easy reach of Los Pueblos Blancos, the famous Moorish white villages. There are opportunities for photography, bird watching, painting, horseback riding and many other activities. Car rental is cheap and easy to arrange at any of the area airports. If you get the chance, consider visiting the beautiful cities of Cordoba, Jerez, Seville, Ronda, Malaga, Cadiz and Granada, all within easy reach. Nearby Osuna and Olvera are also worth a visit with fantastic views and lots of beautiful Spanish architecture and history. They are also ideal if you want to stock up at a large supermarket. Algámitas is just over an hour’s drive from Malaga Airport, the main gateway for foreign flights to Andalusia. There are also numerous choices of scheduled charter flights from other airports in the area. We can provide airport transfers, from an eight-seat cab to a 20-seat coach. If you wish, you can also use these vehicles for day trips. Car rental can also be arranged inexpensively and we are happy to help you with this if you wish. The village of Algámitas is about 45 minutes north of ronda, our nearest town. Closer by are the provincial towns of Campillos, Osuna and Olvera, each less than half an hour away. Further away, about an hour to an hour and a half away, are the beautiful cities of Seville, Cordoba, Granada and Malaga. Each rich in history, art, Andalusian Moorish architecture and, of course, delicious Spanish food.
