In good weather: Coming from the coast on the A-405 at km 24 turn left onto the gravel road, you cross a small river bed and at the end of the path turn right along the railway tracks. Immediately after the level crossing, the second gate on the left is the main entrance to our hotel.

In case of heavy rain you have to keep going until the village of Jimena de la Frontera and at the top of the village at the 'Cuenca' restaurant turn left onto Calle Pasada de Alcalá. Always follow the road and at the end over an iron bridge directly into the nature park. At the goatherd (corner property with lots of animals on the street) leave the paved road and continue straight ahead. Follow the course of the gravel road until it makes a sharp right-hand bend, take this bend and on the right-hand side, shortly after a right turn (do not drive in) you will see our hotel.

We provide you with a rich brunch, in the afternoon there is cake for you and a 3-course evening menu awaits you. All our dishes are vegetarian and organic from regional cultivation. Tea and filtered water is always available.
We are happy to cater for food intolerances.

We are happy to organise excursions and give you tips on what else you can do with your participants during your retreat.

We have a large 80m2 enclosed, heated room for your sessions that you can use at any time. This means you can book our retreat centre all year round.

All our facilities and equipment are free to use for you and your group. The sauna is open in the winter months for a small surcharge.

We are in the middle of the nature reserve and partly use solar power. Our inverters for cooling the rooms therefore only run at certain times in the summer months. Please be considerate of each other and remember that we do not have unlimited electricity. Thank you!

All our rooms have their own bathroom and the same service as in a hotel. Towels, pool towels and bed linen are of course included.

All our rooms are heated either by a fireplace or pellet stove, some have a radiator. Our rooms are equipped to the standard of a 4* hotel, as we value comfort and are committed to providing a high level of service.

In Jimena de la Frontera (5 minutes by car) there are several small supermarkets and a wonderful little organic food shop. There is also a cash machine and several small bars and restaurants in the village. If you drive to the coast (approx. 30 min) there are more shopping facilities. In our small shop you will also find souvenirs, homemade products from Karl, bags, scarves and handmade jewellery from local artists and much more...

We are located in a nature reserve and enjoy the secluded location without noise and with lots of nature around us. There are horses, dogs, cats and chickens on the estate. The sea is about 25 minutes away and wonderful hiking trails are right on our doorstep.
