CORTIJO GARIN     Cortijos in La Alpujarra, Houses and Accomodation for the Rural Tourism in Granada

Cortijo Garin is an Andalucian cortijo that has been totally restored and that, without losing any of its historic character, is able to offer you all the modern day commodities.

We have converted the old part of the building into 10 apartments with a sleeping capacity of between 2 and 8 people. The total number of guests that we are able to accommodate is 52.

Every apartment has radiators, a TV, an open fireplace, towels and bedding, kitchen crockery and cutlery, a microwave, a mini fridge, a coffee maker.

In the communal areas you can enjoy our land and gardens, the swimming pool, the restaurant, the cafeteria, the children’s paly area, a small sports area, stables, viewing points, natural springs, our organic fruit and vegetable gardens and plenty of footpaths for walking in our 72 hectares of land, where you can enjoy, strolling, hiking, horse riding, quad biking or simply admiring the marvellous panoramic views and the stunning sunsets. At certain points within our grounds you can simualaneously see both the sea and the peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountains, Mulhacen and La Velata (the highest mountains in Iberia).

This cortijo was built in the 13th century, we have been able to conserve the original bodega (wine cellar) and use it as a place for meetings and social gatherings, where you can make use of our small library, watch a movie or listen to music and where you can also enjoy some of our homemade wine made from our own grapes.

We are surrounded by almond trees which provide a spectacular sight when the are in flower.

We also have olive trees, fig trees, various fruit trees, chestnuts and often find we have foxes and wild boar living with us.

We hope that you will come and enjoy all that Cortijo Garin has to offer.
