Villa Estrella is a lovely country house with a perfect location in the Parque Natural Sierra Norte, one of the most beautiful parts of sunny Andalucia. The country house was build in 1916 by the owner of a local bank and was located halfway a hill with lovely views. Later on a swimming pool (12 x 5m) was added, surrounded by a rose garden and terraces on different levels. The large cortijo, Spanish for luxury manor house, has thick walls, high ceilings and excellent heating, which makes it suitable for rentals through out the year. Due to its elevated position the temperatures at night drop considerable and guarantee a good night rest. The dining room and outdoor kitchen each have a dining table of 6 meters long that easily seat all the guests. The main house has six bedrooms and five bathrooms and the separate apartment has one bedroom with en suite bathroom (total maximum 17 persons).
It takes only a 15 minutes walk to the town of Constantina, which has been declared a place of historical and artistic heritage. This area is famous for its lovely towns, its large estates with horses and bulls and slopes full of trees that give shade to the cattle. Here you will find the perfect surroundings for a quiet relaxing holiday with great possibilities for walks, horse riding, bird watching and bike tours.
Andalucia is famous for many things: its great Islamic architecture, its lovely food and wines, its passionate flamenco music and the pretty, white villages with their fiesta loving inhabitants. This is the place for those who like to travel off the beaten track and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside, but with a good choice of cultural highlights nearby.
