What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
This Andalusian country manor offers an escape that’s practically unique; half an hour outside of Granada, it’s quiet, surrounded by olive groves...
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Reached via a gravelly country track, the estate sits among sunflower fields and olive groves thirty minutes north of Granada.
The rooms
Individually styled rooms retain historic rustic features, from vaulted granary ceilings and stone feeding troughs to dovecote nesting niches and roll-top tubs.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Sun loungers line the unheated pool beside the estate chapel, looking out across olive groves to the mountains.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
The dining room occupies the old stables, where glass arches open onto the courtyard for nightly three-course dinners.
How it began
Originally a convent before an eighteenth-century marquess claimed it as a private residence, the estate also served as civil war barracks.
