Stunning Andalusian Farmhouse. Privare saltwater Pool. 3-Hectare Olive Estate.


Welcome to La Mejorana

Imagine waking up surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, with nothing but birdsong and the Andalusian countryside stretching in every direction.

La Mejorana is a traditional Andalusian farmhouse set within three fully private and fenced hectares — your own peaceful corner of authentic Andalusia, just minutes from the motorway yet completely removed from the world.

No neighbours in sight — just olive groves and open countryside.

The house

The house respects traditional Andalusian architecture while offering every modern comfort. Thick stone walls help keep the interior naturally cool during summer.

Rustic wooden furniture, handcrafted Andalusian pieces, exposed beams and carefully chosen details create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the house.

The property features five spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms (including one en suite), and a large living room with a wood-burning fireplace and several seating areas for relaxing, reading or working.

The kitchen is generous and fully equipped for longer stays, with everything needed to comfortably cook for up to ten guests.

The entire house is single-storey, making it especially convenient for families with young children, older guests and travellers with pets.

Outdoor living

One of La Mejorana's greatest charms is its outdoor space.

A private saltwater pool sits among the olive trees, surrounded by sun loungers — perfect for warm Andalusian afternoons.

There is also a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with barbecue and two shaded pergolas with dining areas ideal for long lunches and relaxed dinners outside.

At night, the lack of light pollution reveals one of the most spectacular star-filled skies many guests have ever seen.

A truly unique experience — private Andalusian dining

Guests can enhance their stay with an optional private dining experience at the house.

Amanda can arrange for a talented local chef to cook a traditional Andalusian meal directly at the property — paella, slow-cooked stews and classic regional dishes using fresh local ingredients.

Everything is prepared, served and cleared away afterwards, leaving the kitchen spotless so you can simply relax and enjoy an unforgettable evening in your private countryside retreat.

Perfect for every season

La Mejorana is wonderful in summer — long afternoons by the pool, outdoor barbecues and day trips to some of Andalusia's most iconic cities.

But it is equally special in autumn and winter. Central heating runs throughout the house — including bedrooms, bathrooms and hallways — and the fireplace creates wonderfully cosy evenings.

Autumn brings olive harvest season and beautiful golden light across the hills.

Ideal for

Families and groups of up to 10 looking for space, privacy and a genuine Andalusian experience.

Also perfect for couples or small families seeking a longer countryside escape — working remotely with reliable WiFi, travelling with a baby, or simply slowing down with your dog for a few weeks.

The fully fenced estate, single-storey layout and pet-friendly policy make La Mejorana especially popular with families and dog owners.

Casa de campo super acogedora

Un gustazo de casa de principio a fin. Nada mas llegar ya nos dimos cuenta de que habíamos acertado porque Amanda es un encanto. Todo facilidades y con una sonrisa en la cara. La casa calentita y super acogedora. Localización y acceso muy cómodo y el tamaño de la casa y de las habitaciones también. Camas comodas y ducha con agua caliente y buena presión. La casa por dentro es muy acogedora y la zona exterior es impresionante. Aunque fuera Enero comimos en el patio exterior y con el sol calentando y escuchando los pájaros la desconexion y relax es total. Hay muchos y caminos y rutas para andar por zona de bosque cerca que son preciosos. Volveremos!!
