Houses

The “Acornoque” house is designed in a modern style by the architect Kasia Sierszenska. The house, fully renovated in 2013, is designed to host up to three people, although a 4th person could be easily accommodated in a built-in folding bed. The living room is very sunny and has large windows with views to the surrounding landscape and with the Strait of Gibraltar and Morocco in the background. 

 The same scenery can be contemplated from the main bedroom in the second floor.

 A study room in the opposite part of the cottage provides working space and includes individual beds for the 3rd and eventually 4th person.

A large kitchen, which is well-equipped and can also serve as dining room, and a stylish bathroom make up the rest of the house.

 

The cottage is part of a 2,000m2 private parcel dotted by fruit trees to which our guests have access. The facilities include a swimming pond with deck chairs to cool down and sunbathe. 

Guests have also exclusive access to two terraces. The larger one is ideal to lounge in the evening enjoying the sunset with a drink while the smaller one could serve as an alternative space to have breakfast or lunch outdoors. 

The fireplace in the living room, in addition to amenities such as wireless internet and satellite TV, ensure that the guests enjoy their time indoors as well.

How to arrive

We take the national road N-340 between Tarifa and Algeciras. At the 90.5 kilometer of the road (a place known as “Mirador del Estrecho”, 8 Kilometers from Tarifa) we take a way (CA-2215) at the front of “El mirador” (at right if we come from Algeciras, at left if we come from Tarifa). We find “El chaparro” houses at 3.9 Kilometer from the beginning of the way CA-2215.
