Andalucía; Cádiz; Vejer de la Frontera; cottage Finca la Hijuela, casa Encina

Casa Encina (+/- 65 m2) is a beautiful comfortable old-looking house, with two terraces, to enjoy the sun and/ or shade. It is the house nearest to our communal pool. Composed as following: (ground floor only), entrance by terrace to large living room, two seated sofa, TV with satellite . A fully equipped kitchen, dining area with four seats, bathroom with shower and toilet, sink and a royal bedroom, equipped with two individually beds (90 x 200 cm). Each window gives you a spectacular view at the garden, and the pool. Every window has shutters. On the terrace in the shade of a big old tree, at the backside of the house you could think you were alone on the world. Electric heating.. Note: both the Finca itself as the pool are fenced. We, the owners, ( Carlos and Carin), are the ones that will receive you, can help you with all information. Finca la Hijuela is located in the hills near Vejer, in a small town, on a plot of almost 6000 m2. There are 4 totally separated houses for rent on the Finca; Casa Tepuana (2 bedrooms), Casa Encina (1 bedroom), Casa Azahar (1 bedroom), Casa Madreselva (1 bedroom). Each house is isolated and private, with its own garden, terrace and barbecue. To be in the middle of nature. Surrounded by very old oak trees and more than 30 orange, lemon and lime trees, as well as other fruits. In the center of the Finca there is a large swimming pool (10 x 5 m). In the mature and colorful garden, you have all the privacy you could want. We are close to; Vejer, Conil, Medina Sidonia, Seville, Cádiz, Tarifa, Gibraltar. Enjoy the most beautiful beaches on the Costa de la Luz with more than 15 kilometers of fine sandy beaches. The closest beach is about 8 kilometers. You can take a trip to Morocco. Several nice restaurants are nearby, as Vejer de la Frontera has been nominated as a new gastronomic destination. Small shop for daily needs nearby.

This is the perfect place to make your vacation days very special days. Finca la Hijuela is for all those who love the sound of cowbells in the distance, while zipping a wine on your terrace, listening to the owls and the smell of jasmine. Very peaceful ...Perfect houses for a stay away from the hubbub of Vejer and Conil, but so close that it is easy to make visits there, for example to the beaches.

Awful stay

The place was in an area where all homes apparently had to be behind giant fences and gates. You have to travel tiny, bumpy dirt roads to get there. The host was very strange towards me, making me feel uncomfortable on multiple occasions. She also has no problem just showing up at your supposedly private home and often pops out of her home when she sees you walking to your car (you have to walk by her home to leave or get to your parking spot). My rental car was also damaged while parked there. I cut my trip short to get out of there as I was not at all comfortable being there, and I did not feel safe there.

Just gorgeously relaxing

We were at la Hijuela for the third time and when we arrived we felt at home immediately. The owners Carin and Carlos make sure that nothing is left to be desired when you arrive. The finca itself is such a beauty - like a little paradise where you can recharge your batteries. We will certainly be back! P.S. La Muela itself doesn't offer many restaurants if you don't want to cook but there's one not very far away. It is called Patria and is well worth a visit. Do check there to find fresh Andalusian food served in style and with a view.

A lovely setting

We stayed for a week in Casa Encina which is within Carin and Carlos' beautiful tranquil garden. The casa was very clean and comfortable with a terrace overlooking the swimming pool and garden. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there, whether relaxing on the finca or exploring the local area with its great beaches.

Perfect hideaway. A tranquil paradise. Beautifully landscaped gardens.

The chalet was comfortable and well equipped with charming touches. You are perfectly located to explore local towns and beaches and then return to get away from it all and relax on your terrace or by the pool.

Erholung pur!

Im Sep. 2015 waren wir nun das vierte Mal auf der Finca von Carin und Carlos in La Muela. Wir denken, das spricht für sich und sagt alles. Wir kommen immer sehr gerne wieder, denn hier kann man sich erholen. Diesmal machten wir uns nach einer traumhaften Tour durch Nordspanien weiter auf den Weg nach Andalusien, natürlich nach La Hijuela - das ist wie nach Hause kommen zu Freunden. Alles andere ist schon in unseren anderen Bewertungen gesagt :-)! Ganz liebe Grüße aus Berlin. Bis bald mal wieder, Pamela und Matthias

Sit back and enjoy!

The perfect location if you want a completely relaxing environment which is also handy for interesting days out. The little house we stayed in was beautiful - all built in the traditional Andalusian style with so much attention to detail. Close to the pool, we were able to swim before breakfast every morning, and relax on the loungers in the afternoons whilst still being handy for cups of tea, glasses of sherry, vino, sun cream, books, internet and all other essential (?) relaxation-enhancing equipment. The garden is lush and beautiful, and all kinds of animals made themselves apparent - the owners' cute little dogs, mother hens with clutches of chicks, tortoises, cats (and kittens), plus the local bird life, including swallows regularly swooping down to the pool for a drink on the wing, and unidentified others singing their hearts out. We loved it. We visited Cadiz, Gibraltar and Tangier, and could also have included Seville but will save that for another time - the lure of the garden and the pool were too great. The local town, Vejer, is gorgeous. Tip: buy a good map - it's like the Hampton Court maze. We recommend this Finca highly, and hope future guests enjoy their stays there as much as we did. Thank you Carin and Carlos.

Un paraíso en Cadiz

No es la primera ni la última vez que descansamos en la Hijuela, porque la hijuela es para eso, desconectar y descansar. Un jardín escondido en la muela, con una piscina maravillosa y repleta de vegetación. Las playas a 15 minutos en coche, Vejer a 10, Conil a otros 10. Sus dueños, Carlos y Carin, son encantadores y reservados, pero estarán ahí cuando los necesites. Las casas (hay 4) con estilo rústico, porche, barbacoa y jardín privado. No sé qué más decir, siempre que hemos ido, hemos vuelto con más ganas de volver. Si te gusta la zona y l tranquilodad, no lo dudes.

Finca Hijuela Casa Encina

Wij hebben een geweldige tijd gehad in de Finca, Carin en Carlos zijn zeer gastvrij en je kunt altijd bij hen terecht. Ons huis was ruim, schoon en had alles wat we nodig hadden. We hebben genoten van de prachtige tuin, de zwaluwen die een nest hadden onder onze overkapping, de schatige hondjes die kwamen buurten, de vele vinders, kippen en vele exotische vogels. En natuurlijk heerlijk zwemmen in het mooie zwembad. Het is ideaal voor dagtrips naar leuke dorpjes in de buurt maar ook de mooie stad Cádiz is vlakbij. Dus niet naar de Spaanse drukke Costa’s maar fijn naar deze Finca😊 De Atlantische oceaan is op vijf minuten rijden en hier heb je zeer rustige stranden waar het heerlijk relaxt is (wij waren er eind mei). Kortom wij kunnen het het iedereen aanbevelen en je hebt echt rust en ruimte na een uitstapje of dagje strand! Wij komen zeker weer terug!
