Very much as advertised - remote but beautiful. Functional rather than comfy. But a lovely place to stay. BBQ was very basic and on its last legs. Beds were not comfortable on the whole. But everything worked and the handyman was very helpful.

Splendid spacious isolation
If you want rural peace, quiet and privacy, this is the place. Easy access from Jerez, Seville, Gib or Malaga airports. The house is located about a mile up a wonderful bumpy track off the quiet main road, and although is off-grid, the house has wifi. Lovely welcome pack. House appliances - fully equipped and two fridges, great for water, wine and beers.
Plenty of space inside and out, lovely pool and outdoor eating areas and the views are incredible, over the lake and back up to the hills. Perfect spot for 3 families or several couples. Shopping and fuel in Benalup 10 minutes away, or a huge Carrefour back towards Los Barrios (35 minutes) but the two bar/restaurant/shops, 200 yards left in a small hamlet, back on the main road, have all the basics. Had a memorable meal at one - the Casa de Carne, and friendly owners. They will do breakfast, lunch and tapas too upon request.
Carlos the caretaker/gamekeeper/gardener/pool man was discreet and reassuring.
JM was a great host, easy to deal with and very kind.
We will be back!
La estancia ha sido increíble, el alojamiento es perfecto para desconectar con familia y/o amigos. Cuenta con toda clase de comodidades y estaba en perfectas condiciones, no faltaba de nada. A destacar el jardín y piscina con vistas increíbles y el trato exquisito tanto de Juan Manuel como el de Javier, que están siempre atentos y disponibles ante cualquier necesidad que pueda surgir. Sin duda volveremos.
La estancia ha sido extraordinaria. Tanto el propietario como el encargado han estado muy atentos.
La casa muy bonita, amplia y bien conservada.
Hemos disfrutado mucho del porche y la piscina con sus vistas impresionantes.
Propio para hacer excursiones a los pueblos cercanos.
Lugar para volver y eso esperamos
Todo perfecto con ganas de volver, no falta un detalle., vistas espectaculares a todas horas, cada Preciosa muy bien decorada , muy grande, hemos estado perfectamente 18 personas.
Otra ventaja, que puedes encargar comida y te la traen a casa, buenísima y a buen precio, incluso guiaos de carnes de caza.
Estupenda casa en las colinas sobre el embalse de Celemín. Máxima privacidad y tranquilidad, mucho espacio y una estupenda piscina. Los atardeceres desde la terraza son realmente mágicos. La localización de la casa es perfecta para explorar las increíbles playas y pueblos de Cádiz -- todo se encuentra a menos de una hora de distancia.
Maravillosa finca en Benalup-Casas Viejas que permite disfrutar de la sierra y de las playas de Zahara, El Palmar, Bolonia etc. Además de preciosos pueblos como Vejer o Medina Sidonia. La casa es grande y cómoda, la zona del porche y la piscina insuperables, con vistas que te quitan el aliento. El guarda y el propietario siempre bien dispuestos a ofrecer consejos, encantadores. En conjunto un 10 de vacaciones en la provincia de Cadiz para el que quiera conocer más que las playas

A stunning villa in the hills
This is an amazing home in the beautiful hills. The house itself is wonderful with a stunning swimming pool and outside area to enjoy with family and friends. Every room is comfortable with its own bathroom. Juan Manuel will do anything to help you, And Carlos the caretaker and Lilia can assist you throughout your stay. There are beautiful beaches accessible by car and amazing restaurants too. This was an absolutely fantastic holiday and we would recommend this home to any groups of family or friends hoping to enjoy a peaceful and stunning villa in a wonderful part of Spain.

one of the best weeks ever
we stayed in this house with 12 adults and 11 children and we had one of the best weeks ever. of course the mix of people made this a great week but it's also this house and its facilities that completed our week. the house great, located beautifully, great pool for the kids and enough space inside and outside for kids to play. we also contacted the owner for maid support for the cooking, cleaning and shopping. the owner surprised us with providing a great cook. this lady's cooking ability is amazing and it's such an advantage to have someone prepare great food, do grocery shopping and take care of some basic cleaning if you are together with so many adults and kids.
to summarize, we had a great week, loved the location& house and we thank the owner of the house for facilitating one of the best weeks in years.

Impresionante, no se puede conjugar mejor naturaleza y bienestar
Un sitio maravilloso y en plena naturaleza, parece casi imposible que puedan existir lugares así, con una piscina con unas vistas impresionantes, ideal para relajarse y descansar, pasear por el campo o ir a las playas que se encuentran a menos de media hora. Un lugar absolutamente privado y una casa inmensamente grande, amplia y acogedora.
