The estate and its surroundings.
Hacienda Alfacara is a private 200-hectare estate at the foot of Cortes de la Frontera, in the heart of the Serranía de Ronda. Surrounded by mountains and nature, it is a special place to enjoy peace, privacy and the beauty of the Andalusian landscape.

Alfacara is also a country estate. Horses and cattle, groves and cultivated fields are part of its landscape, with the mountains of the Guadiaro valley beyond.
Walnut, oak and fruit trees grow between the houses. Flowers, leaves and light change with the seasons: these photographs show Alfacara at different times of year.

Cortes de la Frontera looks out towards the Sierra de Grazalema and Los Alcornocales natural parks, with routes through mountains and woodland. Ask us about estate paths and nearby walks suited to your stay, and check access conditions and any permits before setting out.
