Conil de la Frontera: Conil is one of the most popular seaside resorts on the Coast of Light. On it's 7 mile coast, different types of beaches can be found : open and extensive, small coves surrounded by cliffs. Some of the characteristics of rural southern Spain can be perceived through rich agricultural small holdings. The architecture is alive reflecting fishing, trade, and the religious side of the town, thanks to it's preservation the town has been declared a historical artistic monument. Conil is rich in traditions, it produces craft work, especially pottery. The gastronomy is abundant from the fertile fishing and farming grounds.
Vejer de la Frontera: This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful towns, not only in Andalusia, but in Spain. It has been declared an historical artistic monument, and was awarded the'Premio Nacional de Embellecimiento'. Thanks to it's privileged location, on a hill 190 meters above sea level, it offers an amazing view of the surrounding countryside. The twisty narrow streets are a walk through the rich and varied history of this town. Particularly prominent is the influence of the Arabs who held the town for 593 years.
Cape Trafalgar and Zahora: From the famous lighthouse of Cape Trafalgar direction north-east you arrive at the beautiful white sand beach of Zahora. Because of the lagoons formed at low tide, makes this a popular beach for families with small children. Lots of fun can be had snorkeling in the crystalline waters.This area is frequented mainly by nature lovers who come to enjoy the beauty and tranquility it has to offer.

Beautiful rustic cottage in an oasis close to the beach which has amazing surf. Lovely casual restaurants walking distance away. Very relaxing.

See you soon!

Home away from home
This is a lovely property, an eclosed garden inside a gated compound so very safe but also very private despite there being four properties in total in the compound, one of which is Juan's home. Juan was an ideal host, available to give advice when asked but otherwise invisible. Our daily guests included two of the dogs, a host of cats and many chickens. Fresh eggs daily was an added bonus. The bedrooms had limited storage space, none at all in the upstairs section but apart from that the place was well stocked from a kitchen point of view and generally very comfortable. To be recommended.

Wonderful cottage near the sea surrounded by peace
Juan Antonio's property is beautifully landscaped with uniquely artistic, thoughtful touches wherever you look. The lovely cottage was very private, exceptionally clean, comfortably furnished, has a stove, good sized fridge and washing machine, and all necessary kitchen utensils. Wifi throughout was a great convenience and although there is a TV and DVD/CD player, we spent most of our time outside in one of several shaded, delightful places to sit in the garden, taking a dip in the swimming pool, or wading into the ocean a few hundred yards from the house. Eggs fresh from Antonio's hens, fruit and vegetables available twice a week from the produce delivery man, fantastic seafood and local specialties at nearby restaurants (especially Francisco's) overlooking the ocean, and time to enjoy a leisurely meal - such a treat! The beaches are spectacular unspoiled stretches of golden sand and the property is within easy driving distance of interesting towns and historical sights, as well as Gibraltar and access to Morocco. The night sky was very clear with little pollution and few lights. Antonio is a considerate, responsive host and the atmosphere of peaceful rural life with friendly, well-mannered dogs and cats, and the comforting sounds of birds and poultry is so welcoming and relaxing. We were there at the height of allergy season (early May) and my husband did problems with his allergies because everything on and around the property was blooming, but we would definitely go back at another time of year and stay longer than a week. Antonio has created a place that is deeply restorative for body, mind and soul.
El Cortijo del Huerto es una casa de ensueño llena de preciosos detalles en cada rincón. Decorada con un gusto exquisito, la limpieza es impecable y la ubicación inmejorable, a 5 minutos de la playa, restaurantes y supermercado. El jardín y la piscina están perfectamente cuidados. Se respira paz y tranquilidad, en plena naturaleza y los animales son adorables! Juan Antonio es el perfecto anfitrión: encantador, atento y con una buena energía q te transmite desde el principio. Gracias Juan, Mila y familia por estas vacaciones inolvidables! Esperamos volver pronto!
Juan Antonio ist ein sehr toller Mensch und Gastgeber. Er war immer da für uns. Wir haben das wunderschöne Haus mit Pool enorm genossen und hatten eine wunderbare Zeit. Die Kinder waren von den vielen Tieren rundherum begeistert! Wir kommen gerne wieder!😊
Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche bei Juan verbracht. Den Kindern haben besonders die Hunde, Katzen und Hühner sehr gefallen.
Das Haus ist nahe am Strand und bei Restaurants und Geschäften. Sehr praktisch für Familienurlaub und Juan ist ein sehr freundlicher Gastgeber.
schönes Haus, schönes Grundstück im künstlerischen Ambiente
Juan, der Gastgeber, ist ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Das Haus liegt nah am Strand (ca. 3-5min zu Fuß) so dass man schnell die Strecke zurückgelegt hat und ist weit genug vom Strand entfernt, um abends seine Ruhe genießen zu können.
Das Grundstück ist sehr gepflegt. Unser Highlight ist die vom Wein überrankte Terrasse. In der Siesta war es dort immer schattig und es sah fantastisch aus.
Katzen, Hunde, Hühner sind die täglichen Begleiter, das hat uns sehr gefallen. Es ist eine sehr ge-chillte Atmosphäre und wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Juan hat auf dem gesamten Areal kleine und große Kunstwerke erschaffen, die zu einer Entdeckungstour einladen.
No puedo estar más contenta con la estancia en esta casa. Simplemente: lo tiene todo. Mis hijos y nosotros la hemos disfrutado al máximo. Piscina, animales, playa a 200 metros, silencio sólo intimidó la interrumpido por los cacareos de la gallinas, detalles por todas partes... Y un largo etcétera.
Juan Antonio es el perfecto anfitrión, atento, cariñoso y disponible a cualquier hora. Ojalá podamos volver pronto!

Beautiful and quite cottage
What a fantastic stay we had at Juan's lovely cottage! Built and decorated with love.
Set in a private, walled garden, only ''disturbed'' by the sound of animals all around you.
The town and beach of El Palmar is only a small walk away.
Specially in this period of the year, autumn, it is a very relaxing place to be. Wide surfing beach, supermarket, brilliant butcher and don't forget to pick up your fresh cake at restaurant El Cartero.
We will be back!

Heerlijk vakantiehuis nabij geweldig strand
Wij hebben genoten van een heerlijke week in El Cortijo del Huerto. Sfeervol en heerlijk rustig gelegen huis met prachtige ruime tuin en zwembad. Slechts drie minuten lopen van het fantastische strand van El Palmer. Hartelijke ontvangst door Juan Antonio. Aanrader!

Estancia maravillosa
Hemos estado una semana en esta casita que parece sacada de un cuento de hadas. Cada día había algo nuevo que descubrir: las gallinas, los perros, los gatos, el entorno, el silencio... hacen que tus días sean especiales. La casa es preciosa, llena de detalles bonitos y decorada con mucho gusto... La limpieza, que para nosotros es muy importante, es inmejorable. El jardín está igualmente cuidado con mucho mimo, como cada rinconcito. Juan Antonio y Mila son encantadores, amables y dispuestos siempre a ayudarte en lo que sea. Nos ha encantado encontrar un lugar con tanto encanto al lado de la playa, en el que nos hemos sentido como en casa. Muchísimas gracias por todo, esperamos volver el año que viene... Hasta pronto!

Cortijo Del Huerto, El Palmar
This was our second year staying as guests of Juan Antonio Cruzado and we have already booked a third. You could therefore say enough said!
It suits us perfectly as we enjoy self catering and shopping at the local butcher and fish shop and going to the splendid market in Barbate for vegetables, where you can also sneak in some indulgent churros with your morning coffee.
The cortijo is charming and very comfortable for 2 (+2). The location is perfect for walking to the low rise coastal resort of El Palmar, with it's fabulous beach stretching from Cape Trafalgar to Conil de la Frontera, every inch of which we have walked on one trip or another.
The property is well maintained and you will never run out of eggs, which are a splendid feature of Juan Antonio's relaxed but perfectly attentive customer service.
We have recommended the cortijo to people and indeed some friends of ours, who have their own property in Spain, were much taken with it when they came to stay one night, including an especially magical sunset at a nearby beach bar.
We are especially fond of Gurugu Chiringuito on the beach, Restaurante El Alferez - the closest restaurant to the cortijo and Venta El Toro at Santa Lucia, just beneath Vejer de la Frontera.

Ausserordentlich schön
Das Haus und die Lage sind ausserordentlich schön. Die Einrichtung des Hauses liebe- und geschmackvoll. Juan-Antonio ist sehr hilfsbereit und seine diskreten, unaufdringliche Art ist sehr angenehm. Er ist sofort da, wenn man ihn braucht. Der Garten ist gross und gepflegt, der Swimmingpool nicht gross, aber gerade richtig. Die Tiere im und ums Haus waren für uns eine schöne Nebenerscheinung, wir haben uns über das morgendliche Hallo der Gänse und Hähne gefreut. Und die Hauskatze Juana ist uns sehr ans Herz gewachsen. Wir hatten sehr schöne Tage hier. Einzig die beiden Matratzen in den Einzelbetten unter dem Dach sind nicht für Erwachsene absolut nicht geeignet, erst recht nicht, wenn man einen etwas heiklen Rücken hat.

Sehr schöne Location nahe am Strand
Das Haus ist originell und stilvoll eingerichtet. Der Garten und Pool ein Traum. Der Strand ist nahe und hat gute Restaurants. Juan ist ein guter und aufmerksamer Gastgeber.
Lediglich die Betten sind für "ältere Herrschaften" ein wenig zu klein und zu hart.

Wunderschönes Bauernhaus
Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub in dem schönen Haus.wir haben die Tiere und die Ruhe sehr genossen.Das Meer und ein kleiner Supermarkt sind fussläufig in 10min erreichbar. Das Haus ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet.Allerdings wäre ein Schrank oder eine Kommode im Kinderzimmer noch ganz gut. Aber es ging auch so.Antonio ist ein sehr diskreter Vermieter, der alles sehr künstlerisch angelegt hat! Man entdeckt immer wieder Kleinode!
Das Wetter war angenehm warm,nur leider hatten wir viel Levante. Und da ist es sehr windig auf der Terasse. Wir haben uns dann in dem wunderschönen nahegelegenen Ort Vejer de la frontiera ein windgeschütztes Plätzchen zum Essen gesucht. Dort gibt es mehrere tolle Lokale und Tapasbars!
Rundherum eine tolle Gegend , tolles Meer und wahrscheinlich die schönste Unterkunft!,!!

Lovely place
The garden and pool are exceptionally nice. An enclosed space, well cared for and surrounded by trees full of bird song. The house is full of character with artistic touches all around. We were four adults, which in retrospect was not ideal as one of the bedrooms is open plan with the communal area and gave little privacy, and also has no storage space for clothes. Would be better for two adults with children.

Great rural hide out
We stayed with 2 adults and 2 young children in April for a week. El Palmar is not very lively during that period, but exactly to our liking. The beach is 5 minutes by feet and is a very long strip stretching for kilometers to both sides. Some surfboard rentals are already open (main activity here on nice shorebreak) and some restaurants, as well. Not the best quality for money, though. Better cook at home. There is a small supermarket in El Palmar (veggies not best quality) and a large one in Conil. All kitchen gear is present (except an oven and teapot). Eating outside is a pleasure in the spacious garden. There is even a BBQ to grill the sardines from the local fishery. The swimming pool is 4 x 5 m and non heated: a refreshing dive in April, but probably welcome in hot summer months. It is located in the back of the terrain of the very sympathetic Señor Cruzado, with parking space for your car. Dogs, cats and chicken add to the rural flavor, much to the liking of our kids. The attic with a low roof is a good place for 2 kids with its 2 separate beds, but is not a separate room. So if you want to test the stereo in the evening (CD with USB access available), the kids will be witness. We did not watch television, but usually for us vacation is a good time for watching a DVD (however, not available). So we read a lot instead or just enjoyed the garden outside with some local wines. In short, one of the best places we ever stayed in because of privacy, tranquility, easy access to the beach and facilities.
