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.

It has everything you need and more. The house was spotless and couldn’t fault it at all. What’s great is that the property is split in two, ideal for two families wanting to maintain their own space (separate kitchens and lounges etc) so suited us perfectly. It was great value too and would definitely recommend it for those wishing to get away from it all and enjoying some quiet time (children’s noises aside). Ralf the host was also very attentive and always quick to answer any questions and offer help where needed. ##### Adam F.

The accommodation was lovely and peaceful and there’s lots of different exterior spaces to enjoy. The views are amazing. The pool terrace was particularly lovely to chill and relax. Would recommend going to the supermarket on your way to the Finca as there are no local shops close by, the last leg of the journey is off road so bear this in mind. The kitchen was fully equipped which was perfect for our stay. Ralf was a very attentive and responsive host. Would highly recommend this property. ##### Sarah Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Camilla Sascha P. 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely finca in the mountains We had s great stay in the spacious and really Well equiped finca. The pool was fitting for us four adults and the Area around it was splendid. Overlooking the pool and the mountains from the cool and shaded pavilion. The two different “Apartments” of the White House with their own key worked perfectly with two teenagers in the family. The owner, Ralf, was very attentive and service minded during our stay. The onely negative thing is that it takes as much as 30 minutes to drive Down the steep, curvey and very narrow mountain Road and get to the buttom of the mountain of you Want to go to the Beach or shop in a Liedel. We recommend the finca to everybody who loves the quiet and Beauty of the Spanish mountains and Nature. The Porsborg family. ##### Camilla Sascha P.

Everything is of really high quality - from the gas bbq to the underfloor heating. Beds are comfy, bathrooms are excellent. There are at least four different areas to enjoy outside - a pool balcony with bbq; a roof terrace, a ground terrace and table tennis table. We loved the location - you can walk straight out into the National Park and hike to a local village (30-45 minutes).The host was exceptionally responsive and really cared that our stay was as perfect as it could be. An absolute gentleman. This villa is perfect for two groups as it is actually two completely self contained apartments upstairs and downstairs. Probably the best villa we have stayed in in Andalucia.

The house has everything you need. Check in was very easy. Be prepared for the drive up, it is a beautiful place but the roads and very windy and it takes around 30-35mins to get to the bottom. We did have an issue with wasps, dozens flying around the pool and in the pool. I’d recommend nearby restaurant Venta El Curro ##### Kevin M.

The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, and little things like suncream, spare chargers and adaptors made all the difference. There is tons of space, inside and outside. The finca is beautifully positioned, in stunning countryside, totally private and secluded. Nonetheless, it is still only 15 minutes from the little town, which has a little grocery shop for basics. Competa is only a couple of minutes further and has a full supermarket, and a number of restaurants. Restaurante Contijo Paco is highly recommended! Back to the villa, the beds are comfortable, the wifi reliable and the air con efficient. The pool is fabulous- be aware there are HUNDREDS of wasps, but they are not at all aggressive, and fishing them out of the pool became a daily game for my youngest! This is not a villa for party people, or those who want an English pub nearby, but for those who want to experience proper rural Spain, and who value peace and quiet, I cannot recommend the finca highly enough. We cannot wait to return! Thank you Ralf for our care and attention, and letting us stay in your beautiful property. ##### Charlotte W.

Eines vorweg, jedem Gast sollte klar sein, dass die herrliche Aussicht und die absolute Privatsphäre damit einhergehen, dass die Anreise auch etwas länger und abenteuerlicher sein kann. Jedoch ist es wie so oft im Leben, dass die tägliche Routine die anfängliche Nervosität schnell verdrängt. Nach nur einem Tag erzeugte die Fahrt keinen erhöhten Puls mehr. 😊 Die Strecke zum Haus wird mit Google Maps fehlerfrei navigiert. Das nur als Tipp. Das Objekt lässt in Sachen Ausstattung, wie die Rezessionen vor mir bereits lobend erwähnt hatten, keine Wünsche offen. So viele Geräte, Geschirr und Besteck hatten wir niemals zuvor in einem Ferienhaus. Absolut TOP. Der Außenpool wurde auf unseren Wunsch beheizt - eine wahre Wonne !!! Ein abschließendes Wort noch zu dem Eigentümer Ralf - Danke für alles!!! Du hast uns in allen Situationen geholfen, Auskunft gegeben und Dich immer gekümmert. Großartig, dass es sowas noch gibt. Die Historie der Finca und die Zukunftspläne aus erster Hand zu erfahren, waren sehr interessant und spannend.

The communication from the owner from the moment we booked to when we landed back in the UK was absolutely fantastic . We went with our friends so the seperate apartments were great to allow us our own personal space . The pool area is fantastic too!! The road up is off road at a certain point but we managed with 2 little fiat 500's and the directions from Ralf were spot on ! We did call at the local Lidl ( 30 mins approx)from airport before arriving at Finca , which is a must so you can just chill for a few days . The place is more than well equipped for everyone's needs . This was the first time our friends have experienced a week in a Finca and off the beaten track and are totally smitten ... who wouldn't be ... you get your own space, a great pool , outside area and stargazing at its best So thanks Ralf for an amazing stay and hope we get to come back again!!! ##### Tracey B.

Jede Anmerkung wird dankend angenommen, Probleme (und mögen sie noch so klein sein) bestmöglich behoben. Das Objekt selbst bietet mit seinen zwei Stockwerken eine wunderbare Auswahl an Räumen und Aufenthaltsmöglichkeiten in einer noch wunderbareren Umgebung (damit ist durchaus auch das Grundstück gemeint). Wir sind jedenfalls begeistert und hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt und werden die Finca Fuerte de Hierro wieder buchen - oder ihre Schwester, auch in der Umgebung ;) Zuletzt: der Fahrtweg mag manche erschrecken, er ist aber mit einem SUV und ein (klein) wenig Fahrerfahrung absolut zu meistern. Wer Vertrauen in sich hat (und das gilt auch für Fahranfänger) und sich etwas Zeit lässt. schafft nicht nur ohne weiteres die Strecke, sondern kann auch die herrliche Aussicht dabei genießen. Entspannt euch! Ihr seid im Urlaub! ##### Leonhard G.

El lugar es muy tranquilo, en plena naturaleza, lo único malo es que nos pilló uno de los días con muchísimo aire ( frio en la piscina a finales de julio, jaja). El dueño está atento en todo momento por si surge algún problema poder solucionarlo. Gracias. ##### Ana Belén E.

Ralf was an exceptional host and was always contactable and on hand to answer any questions we had. As others have stated, the property is a bit off the beaten track and some of the roads take a bit of getting used to but once you’ve mastered the roads you’ll love the location. The finca is located on top of the mountains away far enough away from the handful of other villas so you have the peace but close enough that you don’t feel isolated. The property is around 1 Hour 15 Minutes from Malaga airport; you’ll 100% need a car and a top tip would be to visit the shops before you arrive as it’s about 30 minutes back to a big supermarket! As for the property itself it is split into 2 very good sized villas which also works well as 1. We used both and loved having a kitchen next to the pool area. Each bedroom has aircon including the smaller single bedroom upstairs. The BBQ area is excellent and even includes a washing area and a fridge (for beer ... or food!) Lots of outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the views including a covered terrace area if you feel like it but the stars are so visible you probably won’t want to miss them! The swimming pool is great and we had plenty of room for 10 of us. The pool slopes from shallow to deep; deep is around 2 meters. Outdoor shower is heated ... pure luxury. The villa is very well equipped with all you’d need to stay for weeks on end so don’t pack towels or any kitchen equipment as you won’t need your own. We enjoyed walks around the mountains and day trips to the beach (30 mins) and Competa for ice cream (15 mins). A few tips; Understand before you set off where the villa is and don’t trust Google maps to take you the best way ... do your research! Wasps were everywhere when it got hot as they wanted a drink from the pool and whilst they weren’t aggressive they could be quite annoying! Do your shopping on your way from the airport. Roads are bumpy so consider hiring a 4x4/SUV. We had a fantastic time and I recommend this property for a family getaway if you are looking for relaxation or a beautiful base to explore the mountains. Thank you Ralf for your hospitality. ##### Adam B. ### 8/10 Good #### Alena K. 14 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Sehr schöne Finca, für einen ruhigen Urlaub Großes Lob an den Vermieter der Finca. Super Kommunikation und Fürsorge! Die Finca ist sehr groß und geräumig. So gut wie jedes Zimmer besitzt ein eigenes Bad. Die Ausstattung ist auch wirklich top (Handtücher, Kochuntensielen etc.) Einziger Nachteil: die Lage, der Weg ist sehr sehr kurvig und steil, zum Ende hin keine befestigte Straße, für einen ruhigen Urlaub dennoch perfekt, hier oben stört wirklich gar nichts. Sehr empfehlenswert! :-) ##### Alena K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krejbich t. 11 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Havre de paix Loin de l'agitation de la côte, perdue dans les montagnes, les oliviers et les amandiers mais près de villages pittoresques cette maison gigantesque est un îlot de calme, super équipée, terrasses avec une vue.
