Highly recommend the Cortijo for any large family events

I booked Cortijo Estacada for a group trip to run a Language and Yoga retreat. The venue was perfect with well kept, peaceful gardens and trees, surrounded by orange groves.The pool area was really beautiful - a large, clean pool which was perfect for our group of 16 people.

The internal accommodation was laid out very well to allow us all to have space and privacy, and the kitchen was well equipped and easy to use. I would highly recommend the Cortijo for any large family events or small groups like we had.

The track to the house is a bit bumpy, but that's part of it's rural beauty and what makes it so peaceful. The owners, Theresa and Roger, live next door, but we only saw them on arrival and check out, but they were on hand should we have needed anything, which was a nicely reassuring. They helped us to organise a beauty massage therapist to visit for the day, and lent us a huge paella pan and outdoor hob for our final evening. A great week for us all, and I'd love to return!

An amazing time

Stayed here as a group of 20 and we had an amazing time.

You can’t argue with the price and the place is well equipped with everything you need to have a great time.

Theresa met us on arrival and departure and was very friendly. Can’t thank you enough for having us

Cortijo Estacada a été absolument parfait

Notre séjour à Cortijo Estacada a été absolument parfait. Avant même le début du séjour, la communication avec Theresa et son mari a été très fluide.

Tout est très bien organisé, il y a un contrat et ils envoient des instructions très claires pour arriver à la maison avec des photos de chaque étape de l’itinéraire ce qui est d’une grande aide. À notre arrivée à la maison, nous avons été accueillis par Theresa et son mari qui sont des personnes adorables qui ont pris le temps de nous expliquer ce qu’il y avait à savoir sur la maison.

On sent qu’ils ont sincèrement envie que nous passions un bon séjour et qu’ils font tout pour nous mettre à l’aise.La maison est incroyable.

Que ce soit les espaces extérieurs avec la piscine, les différentes tables, les terrains de sport, le hamac, mais aussi l’intérieur de la maison avec plein de chambres qui disposent quasiment toutes d’une salle de bain privative, la grande cuisine bien équipée, l’espace jeux avec le billard et le ping pong, bref il y en a pour tous les goûts et c’est certain que tout le monde trouvera son bonheur.

Ce qui est également très appréciable c’est que Theresa et son mari fournissent les draps, les serviettes de bain, et même les serviettes de piscine.

Et pour finir j’aimerais aussi mentionner Isabelle, la cuisinière à laquelle nous avons fait appel pour les dîners et qui a l’habitude de venir faire des prestations à la maison. Elle nous a régalé durant tout le séjour et elle est adorable elle aussi.

Bref, tout était absolument parfait. Nous avons passé l’un des meilleurs week-end de notre vie à Cortijo Estacada et nous tenons encore à remercier chaleureusement Theresa et son mari pour leur gentillesse et leur générosité.

Loved it

A group of 17 of us stayed for a week this August & loved it.

The house was really spacious for a big group & we were well provided for (outdoor seating, towels, kitchen equipment, fridges, etc).

We had a few interactions with the hosts & they were lovely & very accommodating. Would recommend!

Ethan - UK

For our family party the cortijo offered multiple room options

For our family party of 19, aged between 6 and 78, the cortijo offered multiple room configurations and options, a large kitchen that worked well for catering for this number, and a magnificent pool and pool area that was the centre of activity every day.

Add cheap and easy access from the local station to Seville and Cordoba, and activity for all ages was on hand

Stephen - UK

Great property, great stay

A group of 22 with a mixture of adults and children stayed at the property.

We’ve stayed at many places as a group and this place was great for socialising as a group.

Plenty of seating everywhere, a great size kitchen and plenty of room if you wanted to be on your own too.

We had a slight issue with the air con when we arrived but the owner was great and immediately came round and fixed the issue.

The owner was always available if need be on whatsapp for recommendations of where to eat or go if need be. i was very impressed and would stay again without hesitation.

Cortijo Estacada is a magical place!

We stayed for a week as a three-generation family of 20 and we had the most amazing time!

The house has lots and lots of space, there were numerous ensuites, the games room was great, the kitchen was very impressively equipped, and the Aircon in each room was brilliant.

The outdoor area(s) was where Cortijo Estacada really shone though - from the pool, to the bar, to the two different outdoor dining areas to the two different lounging areas, we were spoilt for choice!! We had dinners in different parts of the villa some nights - and we didn't even include the patio area!

One thing to note is the very stringent pre-check-in process that people have to go through - this was a bit of a pain but apparently Spanish law has made it so in recent times. Roger and Theresa, whilst abiding to these laws, also showed compassion to our family when we were scrambling to do these things last minute, as we were juggling a wedding!

The takeaway message, though, is that our family had a magical, memorable time here, and we are very grateful to Roger and Theresa for making that happen. Thank you!

De las mejores casas que he alquilado

De las mejores casas que he alquilado para grupos grandes en torno a Sevilla.

Las habitaciones, las zonas comunes y el exterior de la casa son maravillosos y acorde a lo que se ve en las fotos.

Los dueños, aunque por correo parecían un poco serios y estrictos, fueron super amables y aunque vivían al lado nos dijeron que no nos preocupáramos por qué ellos estuvieran cerca y que disfrutáramos de la casa, y así hicimos.

Muy recomendable, probablemente repitamos.

Rafael - ES

Best week ever!

Wow we had the best week ever! Great villa. It was clean, presented lovely and would definitely stay again.

The owners were very welcoming and helped us with a few things- taxi’s. Taking in shopping for us before arrival.

Will give it a 5 star review. Worth every penny for large groups

Again wow . Thank you

The property itself was wonderful - a great large space for big groups

Theresa was an amazing host - super responsive to all of our Qs beforehand and super helpful from local taxis, to supermarkets to tips and tricks.

The property itself was wonderful - a great large space for big groups and amazing outdoor areas with lights, dining tables, bbq and plenty of sports too!

Everything was in working order and Theresa was there on site for any help needed.

The one consideration was finding the place was quite tricky and large buses didn’t come down the dirt track but Theresa left us a v detailed set of instructions so our cabs or food delivery had no issues whatsoever!

We all loved every minute of our stay here

It was an absolute pleasure to stay at the cortijo Estacada. We had a big group of 24 as my brother was having his wedding at this villa.

It was so beautiful and safe for children, the house had everything we needed, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook for large groups and there was even a large stock of towels which you don’t usually get in other villas.

The owners are so helpful and kind, we left behind my sons teddy bear and they were so kind to post it back to us.

We all loved every minute of our stay here, I would definitely recommend it to any size group and I would definitely visit again.

Thanks so much for making our stay so easy and comfortable.

Carrie - IRL

Perfect experience

We came to stay in cortijo estacada for a week for my partner and my wedding.

Teresa and Roger were very polite genuine people. They were so helpful, the villa exceeded our expectations, there was plenty of room for 24 + people including kids.

The kids had a great time they didn't want to leave. I was very impressed with everything that was in the villa for you like hair dryers utilitys towels cots highchairs toys for kids everything you needed was there.

The swimming pool and area was spacious and comfortable they had it gated so the kids couldn't get into it by themselves which was very relaxing to not jump every 2 seconds to see were they out there by themselves.

I really had a fantastic experience. Better then staying in any hotel.

Ryan - IRL

Very relaxing break

We have had a very relaxing break with our family - ages 7 months to grandparents.

The villa is large and spacious, with a very well equipped kitchen.

We had everything we needed. The pool area is large with plenty of space for all the sunbeds.

Everyone enjoyed boules, table tennis and pool.Thanks to Theresa for great communication with our booking.

Karen - UK

Most amazing time!

We stayed here with a big group of friends and had the most amazing time!

The hosts, Theresa and Roger were so incredible helping us at every opportunity, from organising transfers to recommendations for eating out.

The villa was really clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was really well equipped so cooking for 24 was not an issue! They have an outside cooking area as well with a fridge and 2 bbqs that came in handy. The pool was really big and perfect for playing games.

We had the best time! Highly recommend this villa for large groups. Thanks so much!

Phoebe - UK

Wonderful stay at Cortijo Estacada

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Cortijo Estacada in Sevilla, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. Our group, consisting of 23 people who had just completed our medical studies, couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate and unwind.

The house itself was spacious, providing more than enough room for all of us. With big kitchens and plenty of bathrooms, convenience was never an issue. We appreciated the thought put into the design and layout, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. One of the highlights of Cortijo Estacada was undoubtedly the beautiful facilities and garden. The attention to detail in maintaining the property was evident everywhere. The garden was a sight to behold, filled with vibrant plants that added to the overall charm of the place. We also took full advantage of the sports area, engaging in friendly matches and outdoor activities. It was a great way to stay active and bond as a group.

Of course, the pool deserves special mention. It was pristine and inviting, providing a much-needed respite from the warm Sevilla weather. We spent countless hours lounging by the poolside, enjoying the sun and cooling off in the crystal-clear water. It truly added to the overall relaxation and enjoyment of our stay. One aspect that stood out to us was the warmth and hospitality of the owners, a very kind British couple. They were incredibly welcoming and accommodating, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. They didn't mind our music or celebrations, which added to the festive atmosphere of our stay. Their attentiveness and friendly nature enhanced the overall experience. Another advantage of staying at Cortijo Estacada is its proximity to a train station that offers direct access to Sevilla. This made it convenient for us to explore the city and experience its rich culture and history. However, I would recommend considering renting cars for shopping and other errands, as the train may not be as convenient for these purposes. In conclusion, I highly recommend Cortijo Estacada as a fantastic accommodation option in Sevilla. The spacious house, beautiful facilities, and welcoming owners exceeded our expectations. Whether you're looking for a relaxing getaway or a base to explore the region, this place has it all. Our group of medical graduates had an unforgettable time, and I'm confident that anyone who stays here will have a similarly memorable experience.

Luca - DE

Thank you again for an amazing holiday that everyone really enjoyed

Thank you for all you did to make our stay at the Cortijo so amazing. We really appreciated your flexibility allowing some of the families to arrive early and use the pool area, and the hard work you put in looking after the pool each day.

We were a family group, 18 of us, ages 1 to 60 staying at the villa in August. It is a fantastic place, well equipped, with plenty of areas to sit and eat, outside in the shade and inside. The pool is amazing, a large size, very clean, wonderful seating around it with beautiful trees and bushes and a hammock to enjoy. We loved the pool and table tennis tables, the huge lounge area with TV and WiFi, and all the spacious rooms. The air conditioning was very useful, as it was 35 degrees centigrade each day. The local supermarket is only a 10 minutes drive away and the owners were friendly and helpful. The villa is in a rural location but the trains to Seville are easy and it's a lovely city to visit.

Thank you again for an amazing holiday that everyone really enjoyed and has created wonderful memories that will stay with us forever.

Amanda and Paul - UK

Providing space for everyone to enjoy themselves

Cortijo Estacada, Lora Del Rio accommodated all eighteen of us (age five to eighty), providing space for everyone to enjoy themselves, whether at the pool, playing indoor and outdoor games, watch movies, or just sit and read under the trees. We thoroughly enjoyed the barbecues and being able to sit in different locations for meals depending on the time of day. It is conveniently situated between Cordoba and Seville. We also visited Carmona nearby.

Sandra - UK

We had a lovely time at Villa Cortijo Estacada

We had a lovely time at Villa Cortijo Estacada. The swimming pool was the best solution ever for the hot weather. The evenings were lovely thanks to the beautiful kitchen and tables outside. And thanks to the airconditioning we slept well. If I have to resume: the best location for big groups in Seville!

Jessica - NL

We had a great stay

We were a group of 22 (10 children) and had a fabulous stay at Cortijo Estacada. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of seating areas. The kids loved the garden and pool area.

Good communication and Theresa kindly helped us arrange a food delivery so the house was well stocked for our arrival. She also helped us arrange for a local cook to cater a few evenings which was great.

Thanks Again

Ellie - UK

We all enjoyed our stay at the villa

We had a good trip back with relatively little traffic, enjoyed our overnight in Palencia, there are so many wonderful towns to see in Spain away from the tourist hotspots.

We all enjoyed our stay at the villa, it was so good to all be together after the problems of the last couple of years, a pity not all the family was able to make it for various reasons, but the rest of us had a really good time. It was much better than having them all to our house, so for Iris and I it was especially a relaxing time.

Thank you for looking after us and for your kindness

Would 100% recommend

Everyone had such a lovely time, though it’s hard not to at such a beautiful villa! So much to do inside and out, including swimming in the pool and playing table tennis. Gorgeous Spanish heat while we were there but we never got too hot because there was plenty of shaded seating areas outside by the pool and sun loungers to relax on as well.All in all fabulous getaway and Theresa and Roger couldn’t have been more accommodating as hosts. Thank you!!Would 100% recommend and pay another visit myself.

Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay at your beautiful villa

We have just come back from a wonderful week in Cortijo Estacada. We were a large family group of 20 adults. The villa was ideal as there is plenty of space so we didn't get on top of each other. The pool area is wonderful with plenty of sun-beds for everyone and areas of shade for those who want it. There isn't a lot to do in the local area (this wasn't a problem as most of our party didn't want to leave the villa) but Seville and Cordoba are approximately an hour and an hour and half drive away and well worth visiting. Theresa and Roger are on hand if needed.

Lesley - UK

The property was perfect

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say how much we all enjoyed our stay. The property was perfect to accommodate a group from ages 14 to 74 and we all now share some wonderful memories. Seville too was beautiful and such a short train journey away we were able to enjoy a full day there.

Aird - UK

Top weekend!

WIj mochten met een groep van 18 man gebruik maken van dit huis en alle facilliteiten. in een woord: Geweldig! er ligt een uitdaging in het vinden van de locatie, maar dat is zeker ook onderdeel van de charme en privacy. ideale plek voor brainstormsessies en ontspanning.

A lovely week in Lora Del Rio

Our hosts were very helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. The villa is lovely. It has great amenities, a large pool with plenty of garden furniture and shaded areas. We spent many hours playing volley ball and ping pong, the games room is great fun. Outside is a lovely bar area with fridge, BBQ and seating, this was highly enjoyable and convenient. The patio near the villa has a lovely outside table for group evening meals. The kitchen is well equipped, two fridge freezer and dishwashers were handy when catering for a large group. We highly recommend ordering an online shop from Mercadona supermarket for arrival, it was quick and easy. The supermarket itself in town is also highly recommended. Our hosts kindly arranged catering for us at the villa for a very reasonable price. The food was excellent and we would definitely recommend the tapas dishes and paying a very small fee for service and cleaning. Towels and beach towels are provided and the air con charge is very reasonable and the bill at the end was very low. We visited the lovely town of Cordoba and Castillo Almodóvar del Rio, both are accessible by car or train and are definitely worth a visit, especially Game of Thrones fans as they are the filing locations of Volantis and Highgarden. Arrive at the castle before 11 to park at the entrance, there is parking at the bottom of the hill but the walk would be long and steep. The views are spectacular. We visited Seville on the last day, again by car. The Real Alcázar de Sevilla is beautiful and worth a visit, it’s another filming location of game of thrones. The cathedral and Plaza de Espana are stunning. The villa is in a great location to visit all of these beautiful sights. Would definitely return.

Dean & Georgia - UK

Great vacation at a spacious villa!

We had a great holiday in a spacious villa! Theresa and Roger were very welcoming and accommodating offering some great recommendations and were very responsive to our needs. We were a large group of 20, both adults and (big) kids and found the villa had more than enough space and facilities for all of us. The pool area was splendid offering plenty of space to fool around and shade for those who wanted it. Pretty good location to both Seville and the airport. We would definitely recommend this property to others and all look forward to the next opportunity to visit.

Barrie - UK

An ideal house for larger groups of family and friends

Four families shared Cortijo Estacada for a week in August 2019.Both the house and immediate grounds are large providing lots of space for everyone to do lots of other things such as outdoor (Boules, Volleyball & Badminton) and indoor games (Wii, PS2, ping pong pool, board games, films and TV) in addition to the main requirement of relaxing in and around around the good sized and well maintained pool. There is loads of space for dining inside and outside - we all ate by the pool every night and there is a great barbecue. The house is cool in the heat but when required the Air Con is very reasonable and efficient. Lora del Rio has all you need locally; supermarkets, shops, bakers, fruit & veg, Tapas bars and so on. Although there is not a great deal to do locally there was little need and Seville is very convenient by both road and especially train - free station car park and frequent, cheap swift and very comfortable trains into central Seville. An ideal house for larger groups of family and friends. The house is not too fancy, so you don’t have worry too much about what some of the kids (and adults) might get up to. Our hosts Theresa & Roger live on site but leave you to it but were very attentive and helpful when needed.

Tim - UK

The villa was clean and well kept and a fantastic place for a family holiday

From even before we arrived at the villa, Theresa was nothing but welcoming and helpful. They could not do enough to make us feel at home and well informed of villa amenities and things to do in the surrounding local area. The villa was clean and well kept and a fantastic place for a family holiday. The outdoor area and pool was fantastic and kept everyone entertained 24/7 - both children and adults. The games room provided endless entertainment in the evenings as well as a selection of books and games for all ages. Being within driving distance of Lora Del Rio and Seville your choice of daytime activities is endless. The surrounding scenery is stunning and the orange fields are a good bonus. Would definitely recommend!

James - UK

Great stay for large group of friends

We had a great holiday at Cortijo Estacada which was ideal for our large group of friends with children. The number of facilities available, including a really nice large pool meant that we were never short on things to do. Theresa and Roger were also extremely helpful with any questions we had, including arranging caterers which we would also recommend.

Helen - UK

We would recommend to anyone with a large group

We all had a wonderful holiday at the Cortijo. Yourself and your husband were so very helpful, organising taxis and outside catering for us. The pool is fantastic and there is so much facilities in the house for a large group. We would recommend to anyone with a large group Many thanks again

"Was een leuke locatie. Lieve eigenaren. Hebben top-tijd gehad"

Mandy - Holland

Great stay at this rustic cortijo

We stayed at the Cortijo Estacada for 9 nights in early June with 6 adults and 6 kids from 18 months to four and a half. The communication with Theresa (who I only realised was English when we met) was flawless and they helped take in some deliveries I’d arranged from within Spain in advance of our arrival which was excellent. The Cortijo itself is exactly as advertised, it’s reached along an upaved road which is a bit bumpy but remember to read Theresa’s instructions and don’t just follow google maps or you’ll end up around the back and having to do another 5-10 minutes on seriously bumpy tracks (don’t tell the car hire company!). The first things to note is the space, the Cortijo itself is huge with lots of room around including a volleyball court and gardens, it’s quite remote, especially with the bumpy track so nipping in to town is a 40 minute to 1 hour round trip by the time you’ve parked and got your bread/wine etc if you’re a group that wants to eat out a lot you should bear this in mind as you’ll need to drive. Inside they have covered off the basics really well, big rooms, clean beds and decent mattresses, lots of hot water and good pressure, they provided good quality cots and high chairs and even a baby bath (there’s no bath in the property). The kitchen is well stocked for coping with big groups, 2 big fridges (we used one for drinks and the other for food) loads of hob space, 2 dishwashers (much needed) and 2 washing machines. The communal space was also really good inside albeit we hardly used it apart from to give the kids some respite from the sun in the afternoon. There’s also good WIFI coverage with and English IP address handy for watching Cricket and Love Island (don’t judge us!). one point to note is that there were quite a lot of flies in the kitchen and also ants, you need to be really careful to keep food covered and sealed, a few more sealable Tupperware type things to ensure the ants don’t eat your dinner before you do would be great. The heat builds during the day so we found that the hottest part of the day was between 3 and 8 and we had a few days up at around 40 but mainly around 30 degrees C. There’s also quite a stiff breeze and the evenings were cooler than we anticipated so bring a few long sleeved tops. We ate outside every meal but the wind did occasionally mean we had to go inside to play cards etc. There is a courtyard but as we had children asleep in the rooms which had windows onto it we didn’t use it. If there was one suggestion here it would be to try and create a sheltered area, perhaps with a firepit or something where you could sit in the evening. The pool area is great, the pool itself is really big which is great for a big group and was cleaned regularly, the flying insects (no mosquitos that we experienced but plenty of flies etc) end up in the pool in pretty large numbers so you need to do a scoop a few times a day but it didn’t stop us making a lot of use of it. The steps in to the pool were also a good place for the children to play as they were shallow and wide. It was also good to have a gate on the pool so you could be sure the kids weren’t near it when roving around. On the web description they say there’s a dishwasher in the pool bar but it’s been removed, I’m not sure why you’d need it in any case, we didn’t really use the bar as a bar but it was a useful place to store inflatables in the evening so they didn’t blow away. Would be good to get a few plastic wine glasses etc for taking to the pool as well. We picked oranges fresh every day and juiced them for breakfast, delicious and there was tons of rosemary for BBQ’s etc. the BBQ is big and simple and we cooked on it every day. In other places we’ve had rotating spits and pizza ovens etc which gave a few more options and if there had been a bit more to the outdoor kitchen it would’ve been great. We had a chef come in to do food one night and it was great quality and nice to have someone else do the cooking and washing up! Overall we had a great, relaxing time at the Cortijo, the style of the place is more rustic and homely than cutting edge and polished but if you’re looking for easy going and spacious this place is great.

Iain - UK

We enjoyed the pool area and the gardens

We rented the cortijo for a Belgo-Spanish family reunion (22 persons from 1 to 61 years). One of our family members had an accident some months ago, fortunately the house is on one floor and has wheelchair access into the common areas. We enjoyed the pool area and the gardens. There is a lot of space inside to spend the cool April evenings. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Lora del Rio is a pleasant town, with authentic processions in the Semana Santa. The Matallana Parc is very nice for walking and cycling.

El placer fue nuestro, hemos pasado un bonito fin de semana

La casa es muy amplia, con múltiples habitaciones y baños, siendo las habitaciones confortables y completas. La mayoría de ellas tienen el baño dentro. La cocina es grande y totalmente equipada. Hay multitud de asientos (sillones y sillas) y mesas, tanto en las zonas comunes interiores como en las exteriores. Además, cuenta con mesa de.billar, mesa de Ping Pong, piscina, pista de volleyball, etc El trato con Theresa y su marido muy correcto y agradable. En general, recomendable al 100%, sobretodo para grandes grupos (nosotros éramos 23 huéspedes)

La cadre est idéal : terrasse avec de grandes tables pour manger, une grande piscine, terrain pétanque,terrain volley, ....La cuisine est au top avec 3 frigos...La maison n’est qu’à 40km de Séville pour la visite de la ville. Merci à Theresa pour son accueil. Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés

Elodie, France

Perfect combination

It is always difficult for our group to find the perfect villa as we are such a large group with varying needs due to the wide age range but this villa had something for everyone. The pool was lovely and fenced, always clean and with plenty of space to sit around. There are very good shady areas under trees for the less enthusiastic sun worshippers and the villa itself was cool and spacious so despite being twenty we never felt cramped. The kitchen is a treat for those who have struggled in tiny kitchens which many large villas have where catering for more than 4 would be a challenge but this was large and well equipped. Although very hot we did go to Seville and Cordoba (a must see) we just started early and had wonderful days there. The owners were exceptional; always willing to help but not intrusive. They were extremely kind and helpful when we needed it. Overall, a peaceful site, out of the main tourist drag but providing access to many cultural delights.

Relaxed, easy holiday for large family group

We were a family group of 17 with a wide range of ages from 3 years upwards. The Cortijo was wonderfully spacious and was easily able to comfortably accommodate us all. We spent most of the time in the large pool area and took advantage of all the amenities available to us. We had cooks come and make us dinner on a number of nights - a mix of vegetarian and meat eaters. The kitchen was incredibly well equipped to deal with large group catering. The food was delicious and the cooks very friendly and amenable. The paella was particularly good as were the tapas. Theresa deserves special mention for being incredibly helpful and kind - she organised the shopping for us on the first day, cleaning, babysitting, restaurant recommendations and the cooks. She certainly made the holiday relaxed and easy - nothing was too much trouble. We would certainly recommend the Cortijo - it was super easy to get to from Seville. Thank you Theresa!

“The gardens are beautiful, the pool area was perfect”

Just wanted to say how much we all loved our stay in your wonderful cortijo. The gardens are beautiful. The pool area was perfect, with plenty of sun beds to use. We particularly liked the two large seating areas under the sails...a welcome break from the sun. We ate all our meals outside on the two long tables- ideal for big family gatherings. The cortijo itself provided all we needed, with plenty of space for everyone. Preparing meals for 18 was made easier by the large kitchen and plenty of pots and pans. Online shopping and supermarket deliveries made the whole process hassle free. We were very sorry to leave and would definitely recommend this wonderful place for a truly amazing holiday. Many thanks Theresa and Roger. Hope that sums up our lovely holiday, Hope to return Best wishes

“The cortijo overall is a beautiful home, very spacious”

We had a fabulous stay in the cortijo. There was a group of 20 and we had a fantastic week. We spent most our time around the pool and there was plenty of seating areas and sun beds to chose from, in the sun and also the shade. We spent a day in Seville which was very easy to get to; the town had a great train service. Most of our days we ate at the cortijo and got food from the supermarkets in town. There is a good selection to chose from so we had a great variety of dinners. On two occasions we did eat out in town in two restaurants called, Javi Garcia and Vera Cruz. Again, these had a great variety and everyone in the group had something they enjoyed. The cortijo overall is a beautiful home, very spacious and plenty of social spaces. Every room had air conditioning as well which was an added bonus. I definitely recommend and we shall be booking again for a future stay.

“We found Cortijo Estacada and it was absolutely amazing”

We were a group of 16 young people who had just finished high school and were looking for a place to relax and celebrate. We found Cortijo Estacada and it was absolutely amazing. Both the house and the surroundings were incredible. Theresa was very helpful with everything, even after our stay ended. We would definitely recommend Cortijo Estacada to our friends and families.

“A stunning oasis of calm”

Cortijo Estacada was the perfect venue for joint 60th birthday celebrations . There were 17 of us aged from 15 to 60 and the facilities were perfect-the pool, badminton, boules, table tennis and much more. The outdoor eating areas were ideal and we were surrounded by beautiful flowers, orange trees and palm trees. The local supermarket was just a short drive away and we were able to buy all that we needed. We visited Seville and the town of Carmona but on the other days we were happy to enjoy the lovely surroundings and excellent facilities of the Cortijo.

“Holiday with extended family”

Theresa, you have a jewel in the countryside. Many thanks for the wonderful time we had at the Cortijo. There were 23 of us, from various different ages (3 weeks to 76 years!) and the Cortijo catered very well for everyone of us. The Cortijo itself caters very well for large numbers of people. We had 5 different families all cooking for themselves and there was plenty of space. The kitchen is well equipped, several cookers, dishwashers, hobs, kettles, coffees makers and utensils. There were several eating areas both inside and out. The pool was well kept and plenty of sun loungers. You supplied lots of towels for both inside and outside for the pool. The pictures you post on your website are very accurate. I did walk into the town which took about 50 mins each way (not a pleasant walk as its on the main road). I would recommend a car. There is a large supermarket in Loro del Rio, well stocked. Thank you for organizing your chef for us. We had two meals which were both lovely. Also, your recommendation to eat in the restaurant in town also worked out well for all the family. The taxi company you use, managed our big group well as they did a few journeys to the town to ferry us around. The location of the Cortijo is quite rural so nobody seems to speak English, however, this adds to the Spanish experience (frustrating by times!) My parents loved to pick the oranges from the tress scattered around the villa. Picking the lemons and limes from the tress was also great fun. You really couldn't have done enough for us, nothing was to much trouble. Thanks again for the wonderful experience and no doubt we will return in the future. Allison and family.

“Fantastisch”

We hebben heerlijk genoten van het prachtige grote huis, de tuin die in bloei stond en het grote zwembad. Ideale lokatie voor week vakantie met familie. Ruim genoeg voor een groep van 16 personen. Huis en zwembad zijn van alle gemakken voorzien. Binnen een uur ben je in Sevilla, een stad waar je niet uitgekeken raakt. Kortom een absolute aanrader!

“Most fantastic location for my 40th birthday celebrations”

The Cortijo Estacada provided my friends and me with the most fantastic location for my 40th birthday celebrations. Seville city centre, the airports are very accessible by car and the local town Lora Del Rio is picturesque with a quaint feel & good restaurants. I can’t recommend the venue highly enough; it was an absolutely fantastic location to make any special event memorable. Theresa and Roger were wonderful hosts, providing excellent communication at all times and going above and beyond to provide me and my friends with everything required for a fun-filled, well provided for stay (including, catering ideas, shopping and beverage deliveries). The high ceilinged house was a great size for our needs, well maintained, with lots of different areas to give you the privacy or the party vibe you desire (depending on your needs). You really have the place to yourself, amidst beautiful rural surrounds, including orange groves and a stream. The pool area is superb, with marvellous views, all-in-all the facilities are spot on – from relaxing by the pool, numerous sporting activities and even dancing into the night - it really ticked all the boxes to make for the most perfect holiday and celebration.

“Thoroughly recommend staying at this beautiful accommodation for the perfect combination of fun and relaxation”

The Cortijo is a huge house with many gorgeous rooms. It has plenty of beautiful outdoor spaces and places to socialise (the lounge is huge with many sofas), there's many large tables for eating outside. The pool is large and lovely and there's gorgeous views from the house. The place is perfect for celebrations. The owners are truly lovely and they helped to make our significant birthday celebration very special. Most rooms have ensuite bathrooms and the house is well-equipped with games, books, kitchenwares,etc. There's a large outdoor barbecue and the location is off the beaten track for a bit of privacy but close enough to Lora Del Rio (10 min drive) for supplies/ day trips out. The train to Seville is around 8 euros return and it's a stunning place to visit. The local supermarket will deliver very reasonably priced exceptional produce to the house if you order online. Theresa sorted a coach for us to do a daytrip to Alhambra in Granada. She also very kindly helped us to source a cake for the birthday girl. The Cortijo has lovely areas of shade with beautiful flowers around. We were lucky to visit at Orange Blossom time when the smell of the orange groves around the house is just amazing. We were able to pick and squeeze fresh sweet oranges from some of the trees for our morning breakfast juice. I would thoroughly recommend staying at this beautiful accommodation for the perfect combination of fun and relaxation.

“Le Cortijo est vraiment très agréable”

Le Cortijo est vraiment très agréable.il est bien situé entre Séville et Cordoue et permet donc de visiter facilement ces deux villes ainsi que la Serra Morena. Sa conception a été parfaitement idéale pour une grande famille comme la notre.  Nous avons été très bien accueilli et avons pu profiter de la piscine et des divers aménagement de loisirs. Enfin les cuisiniers nous ont régalés tous les soirs avec une excellente cuisine espagnole. Bravo et merci à vous Thérèsa !  Bien cordialement

“Wonderful time we had at the cortijo”

Dear Theresa, Thank you so much for the wonderful time we had at the cortijo! We enjoyed the large and refreshing swimming pool, especially after our (lovely and tiring) visit in Sevilla. We played ping-pong and badminton, we used the barbecue and the 16 of us could easily fit at the large table.You help in the kitchen was highly appreciated and the cooks prepared a delicious typical local meal! All of us enjoyed these few days and look forward to come gain! What a peacefull place! Thanks again and hope to see you soon,

“Fantastic stay at Cortijo Estacada”

We have recently returned from a fantastic stay at Cortijo Estacada. As a large group (10 adults and 10 children) the Cortijo offered plenty of space for all of us to find a little retreat, but the communal areas enabled us to really make the most of being there as a group. The pool area was a highlight for us and we spent most of our time there, and with there being both a kitchen area with fridge as well as a toilet it meant we were able to spend hours outside without having to keep heading back in for things. The children especially loved the pool plus made great use of the chess board and the outdoor shaded seating areas. The Cortijo is a little out of the town so a car is definitely recommended and we found the local town to be pretty quiet, but the local Mercado supermarket is brilliant and really well priced as well. Some of us also took a trip on the train into Seville which is worth a visit. Finally we must say a few words about the owner Theresa who was truly fantastic during our stay. She was always on hand to help with any queries that we had (both before our arrival and also during our stay), and also helped us arrange taxis where required as well as organising for a fabulous chef (Antonio) who came in to cook paella for us – highly recommended. Thanks again for all your help during our stay – we had a wonderful time!

“Relaxation at it's finest”

A group of 20 of us just spent the most relaxing week in this beautiful villa. There was plenty of space inside so we weren’t on top of each other with 11 rooms to choose from. Outside there was lots of space around the pool area and the gardens with plenty of shaded areas, tables, chairs and sun loungers for everyone. The villa and pool were very clean which made it more enjoyable and relaxing. Access to food was not an issue. Upon arrival the local supermarket delivered our online order and if and when we needed any other extra bits it was a quick drive into the town to pick up groceries. One night we had cooks come into the villa and cook us all a paella which was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed that evening. Other nights we headed into Lora del Rio for the evenings where there was a lot reasonably priced restaurants/tavernas to choose from or we cooked our own meals in the well equipped kitchen and BBQ. One day we took the train into Seville from town which was very easy and inexpensive. The kids stayed entertained with the outside volleyball net as well as the pool table and ping pong table inside. The owners of the property were very welcoming, friendly and gave us a lot of useful information regarding the villa and the surrounding areas. Overall, it was a fantastic holiday which we all thoroughly enjoyed and we will most definitely be making a return in the future.

“Great venue for a multi generation get together”

There were 19 of us from 4 generations and from two continents for a family get together and the house was great. The pool was our favourite venue, it was warm and clean and being 12 meters long was good for those who wanted to swim rather than just have a dip. There are plenty of sun loungers and lots of shade too around the pool. Teresa was friendly and helpful and when we had a couple of issues with maintenance problems she sorted them out immediately. Our only negative comment is that the house is at least a mile from the road along a track. You definitely need a car as it would not be possible to walk to the local town.

Chloe, UK

“This year we discovered Cortijo Estacada and were really pleased we did”

This is the second year we have travelled as a large group and finding somewhere big enough can be daunting. This year we discovered Cortijo Estacada and were really pleased we did. The website states that it accommodates 20 but the living areas are huge and could accommodate twice that number with room to spare. There was enough crockery and cutlery to feed us all with plenty to spare so we didn't always have to use the dishwasher straight away. The kitchen was catering size and the cooking facilities plentiful. Outside was also spacious with several seating and dining areas to choose from, enabling some quiet reading or raucous game playing. The pool, needless to say, was welcoming when temperatures soared to 42! Tips: * We spent an evening in Seville, only 3/4 of an hour away, and it was stunning. Definitely worth a trip. * Car hire is worthwhile but do recommend something 'rugged' as the off-road track to the villa is very rough. * Flip-flops are essential for round the pool as the concrete gets very hot. * Javi Garcia restaurant in Lora Del Rio was lovely for an evening out - cheap, tasty food and outdoor seating with the locals. Don't expect an English menu, so choose with an open mind. * Don't take beach towels - there are plenty.

“Fantastiy place for a large group holiday”

This HUGE house is perfect if what you want is get-together with lots of people. The house is perfectly equipped to provide for a large party (it was 28 adults in our case): a lot of the bedrooms have an en-suite, the kitchen is fit to cater for 30+ and the common areas, inside and outside, are simply fabulous. The perfect plus: the orange trees we had unlimited access to (all you need is a volunteer to press 10 litres of fresh orange juice every morning!). It's not over the top, has everything you need, basically it's nice and comfortable without being excessive. When we got there, the house was clean and ready, all we had to do was slip into our swimsuits (which be bravely did, even though it was February). Theresa was a great help before, during and after our stay. Her recommendations and tips were spot on and a massive help, and she was able to help us out with all of our general queries (shopping, transport, activities...), and made us feel very welcome and at home, even though we had felt our questions were slightly excessive before getting there. The place is also perfectly child-friendly (the pool is secured), and party friendly (as we can confirm...). All of our friends were impressed with the place, wondered how we'd found such a gem and it certainly made our do even more magical. I would definitely recommend the Cortijo to anyone looking for a place spared from busy everyday life, a place to have your won retreat, whatever kind it may be.

Florian, Italy

“Wonderful holiday at Cortijo Estacada”

We had a wonderful holiday at Cortijo Estacada. The house is very big and ideal for big families. Every room or so has its own bathroom which is very convenient. Everything was also very easy for babies and children: high chairs, baby beds, games... The pool area is awesome! We had the best weather ever when we were there and we visited Sevilla and Cordoba. First one by taking the train from Lora del Rio: perfect. You made it also very easy on us by answering very fast to all our questions, before and during the trip, helping us with the delivery from Mercadona... Thank you for that. The only thing to know is that you can't go by foot to the center of Lora del rio (we are french, we needed fresh bread every morning!) and the road is a country road very damaged. Besides, some of the machines in the kitchen were not working (coffee makers and blender were not working and washing machine would need a maintenance). Perfect holidays though and we would definitely recommend this place and/or come back again! B regards Lucie

“Amazing time staying at the Cortijo Estacada this August”

We had an amazing time staying at the Cortijo Estacada this August. We rented the Cortijo for a 50th birthday celebration, the first week with 27 people (12 adults, 11 teenagers, 4 children) and the second week with 18 people. The house accommodated the large party so well, lots of space to cook, inside and out, eat, sit, relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The pool was lovely and there was plenty of shade to read or just hang out and chat on those hot sunny days. The games room inside was great for the older and younger children alike. We visited the local town for shopping - great supermarket (that will deliver) which stays open from 9 til 9. The train station is also in the local town and we took a train to Cordoba, beautiful old town and definitely worth a trip. Nearby Carmona is also a wonderful place to visit as is Seville which was a 40 minute drive away and where we had a wonderful evening watching flamenco dancing. Theresa and her family were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely recommend the Cortijo Estacada and would love to come back again one day. Thank you!!

“Very relaxing week at the Cortijo”

Hello Theresa,thank you for a lovely week, all home safe and sound.We've just spent a very relaxing week at the Cortija. The house had everything our group of 17 needed. The outside area was lovely, but the weather was extremely hot. The local town of Lora del Rio had good restaurants, well stocked supermarkets and a convenient train station for visiting Seville and Córdoba.

Jill, UK

“Wonderfully relaxing holiday in a beautiful area”

We have just returned from a weeks stay and had a brilliant time. We were a group of girls who spent most of our time using the pool. There was ample room in the house for us all with good wifi coverage There is a supermarket in the town that has a delivery service, which we organised for our arrival day, it arrived before us and it was all put in the fridge etc for us. We had such a wonderful time, we would definitely return in the future and would highly recommend.

Nina, UK

“Massive massive thankyou”

Hey! Just want to say a final massive massive thankyou to you and the boys for making our stay so brilliant! It was amazing and you were all fantastic!

Lee, UK

“Good time had by all”

Hi Theresa, thanks for all your help during the booking process and arranging a coach to Sevilla city for the evening. Being a large family group of adults and children, the cortijo offered more than enough space inside and out. The children seemed to occupy themselves in the pool and games room giving us adults time to relax. The spacious property meant that we were able to aways find quiet areas if required. The kitchen was really well equiped and the cooks we booked for the one evening made a great paella. Thanks once again and would strongly recommend

Laws, UK

“Enjoyable stay”

Thanks so much for an enjoyable stay. Lovely setting amongst the orange tree and by the swimming pool. Everything proved to our liking and the family were able to chill out and relax together. Thanks again.

“Relaxing stay in a beautiful Cortijo”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely Cortijo. We spent a week enjoying the lovely space and great facilities. It is a very relaxing location with beautiful views. we felt very welcomed by the family and would highly recommend staying in the spacious and beautiful place. Thank you to Theresa, Roger and the boys for sharing the gorgeous place and making us feel so welcome. x

Stephanie, UK

“Keen to return so there cannot be a bigger recommendation than that”

We stayed at the Cortijo as a family group of 9 people in the last week of August 2015. A the property can take up to 29 people and we only had to pay for 10 we had a tremendous amount of space at a very economical price due to the flexible booking requirements . The property is a lovely old style Corijo but with very modern facilities and is very easy to reach being about an hours drive from Seville airport. The airport links very quickly onto the the motorway so you need not worry you will be driving around around Seville City Centre if you hire a car. IF you are looking for peace and quiet then this property is the place to go . I would recommend that you hire a car as the cities of Seville , Carmona & Corboda are fabulous places to visit and a trip to the nearby National Park is also worthwhile and not to be missed . The booking was very easy and Theresa and family made as all very welcome and are close at hand to resolve any problems you might have. I would recommend that you make a online supermarket shop before you arrive and Theresa will provide all the details to do this when you book. My family are keen to return so there cannot be a bigger recommendation than that. Bryan Kirby

“Great for a corporate offsite”

We ran a corporate offsite for ten people for a week at the Cortijo and it was a great success. The house has lots of living rooms and communal spaces for people to meet, work and talk. And sit around the pool! Wifi was pretty reliable too, which is key for corporate events. Theresa could not have been more helpful, organising a welcome meal, daily cleaning, a paella evening and restaurants for us. Thanks, Theresa!

John, UK

“Thanks Again”

Hi Theresa and Roger Thoroughly enjoyed our family stay at the Cortijo this being our second consecutive year visit. Everyone enjoyed chilling out inside and on the patio and around the pool. The whole experience was relaxing and thank you for making us feel so welcome again. Visiting Carmona and surrounding areas was of interest before returning for early evening drinks etc with temperatures in the low 30's.

Terry, UK

“Another super holiday at the Cortijo”

I stayed at the Cortijo with a group of 13 friends (all of us in our mid-20s) in June 2015 - this was actually our second visit as we had stayed previously in 2012. That holiday had been a huge success and when the idea of going back to the Cortijo was mooted this year everyone got on board very quickly. The house itself is very large and fully equipped with a large kitchen, large living area and too many bedrooms to keep track of. The weather was very warm while we were there and while air conditioning units are available in each bedroom (at an extra charge per unit of power used) and in many of the communal rooms we never needed to use them as the house remains very cool inside. The house is set in beautiful gardens with orange trees in the fields next door and the pool area is particularly great - plentiful sunloungers and cushions, a large dining space, a large shaded area and a large bbq and a "hut" where food can be prepared. I corresponded mainly with Theresa during the booking process and she was always very prompt in her replies and extremely accommodating of our requests. She helpfully gave us the website of a local supermarket from which we could order a food delivery and also booked a coach to pick us up and drop us at Seville Airport. Additionally I had asked Theresa if we could arrive a few hours earlier than usual and she said that this was fine, although we might have to relax by the pool for a time while housekeeping finished (this sounded good to us!). In fact when we arrived housekeeping had already finished in time for our arrival and Roger was there to greet us with his sons and we could get into the house straight away - this was very much appreciated! We stayed at the Cortijo for five days and (as happened last time) never left the house and grounds because everything we wanted was there! If you do want to go in to Seville then I understand from Roger that you can get a train straight to Seville from Lora del Rio (about a mile from the house). In short this was another fantastic holiday and I cannot recommend the Cortijo (and Theresa and Roger) highly enough - we hope to come back again!

“A lovely house between Sevilla en Cordoba surrounded by orange trees”

A lovely house between Sevilla en Cordoba surrounded by orange trees. We were there with a group of 11 persons.Nice garden with a great pool... enough beds and seats at the pool.The house is really spacious and fully equipped. But because of the excellent weather we practically lived outside! Friendly host.

Henri, Holland

“Spacious relaxing holiday with large group 5 of 5 stars”

We stayed for a week to celebrate a birthday. Theresa and Roger were there to greet us, and provide local knowledge. They also arranged for two cooks to prepare and cook a four course traditional lunch on the Sunday. Shopping was ordered online from local supermarket, and delivered shortly after we arrived. House had plenty of space for us all, with lots of seating and tables all around. Pool was clean and decent size. Kitchen was well equipped, with three fridges and cookers, and two dishwashers. Also plenty of toasters, kettles etc, as well as lots of crockery and glasses. House was in a good location, few minutes drive from town, but far enough from everything that we did not disturb anyone. Excellent location for a large family or group of friends. Child-friendly and disabled-friendly accommodation. Owners were lovely, nothing was a problem or too much trouble.

Pam, UK

"Fantastic, plan to return next year"

Theresa, Roger thank you for a wonderful stay at the Cortijo, facilities coupled with your good service made our stay enjoyable. We enjoyed the overall environment and the ease to travel to other places of interest. Thanks, thoroughly relaxing.

Terry, UK

"Very enjoyable week at the Cortijo"

We had a very enjoyable week at the Cortijo. It is an ideal house for a large mixed age party with plenty of space for reading, swimming, sun bathing, good (and very cheap) local food and wine shopping and ideally located for sight seeing in Seville and Cordoba. Everyone loved the pool and the kitchen is well equipped

Charlotte, UK

"Definitely recommend. LOVED IT"

The villa is large, welcoming and comfortable providing everything a large group could need. Plenty of clean bedding, lots of towels for our large group of adults (ten), well equipped kitchen, games room, computer, books, all we could need on holiday. Wonderful and peaceful garden with nice pool and many different areas to chill and eat out. The villa is perfectly located to explore Andulsia with a good train service nearby in Laro del Rio. We had a memorable holiday at the villa which really was home for a week. Definitely recommend. LOVED IT

Sally, UK

"Would recommend to anyone"

The house is warm and accommodating for large groups and is very family friendly, pleasing all ages of the group I went with. The dining areas (inside and out) had ample space for all of us, very pleasing as some places can sleep a large group but not accommodate day to day living, this place did. We were greeted on arrival by Roger, the owner, and it gave us a real feel of a family establishment. Would recommend to anyone.

Lucy, UK

"Unforgettable Family Holiday"

It was lovely to be able to get away from England for a week and enjoy a peaceful break in the glorious Spanish countryside. We were able to relax by the pool and enjoy nice long walks around the surrounding countryside. Having a natural park in walking distance from the property was fantastic and we were able to walk there as a group and enjoy a picnic breakfast whilst watching the sunrise early in the morning from the distance! The villa was ideal for us as a group; the kids could run around and as the house is nice and big we could all have our own space and not get on top of each other. Having an outside BBQ area was just wonderful for lunches and the warm summer nights, in fact I think we used this area almost everyday at some point! The villa provided everything we needed and felt like a home from home as soon as we arrived. The owner of the property was of great help and reliable. We wouldn't have been able to have organised transport or chefs without his help! As a group we can all agree that we had a fantastic time and we will definitely be coming back soon

Luke, UK

"Great holiday, fantastic villa"

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cortijo. We were a large group 22 of us and there was plenty of space for all of us and spent a lot of time enjoying the pool. We ate outside most evenings but did have a couple of meals at a restaurant in the town. Roger was there to meet us and gave us useful information on the local area. I would recommend hiring a car so you can make the most of the area. We used the train and had a day in Seville and a day in Cordoba. This property is ideal for large groups/families with children.

April, UK

"Our stay at the Cortijo was wonderful"

Hi Theresa, we had a great time: Our stay at the Cortijo was wonderful. For us it was a opportunity to meet up with friends and family whom we had not seen for a long time. Our plans to visit various places in Andalucia every day went out the window pretty quickly in exchange for lazy pool days as it was such a joy just to do nothing there. The Cortijo was well equipped with just about at least two of everything which made it easy for a large party. Sitting eating out at night by the pool in the warm evenings will give us so many lasting memories. Just about everyone who showed up wants to do it again soon. Theresa and Roger were easy going and great to work with throughout the entire process from booking to departure.

Brian, USA

"Highly recommended - peaceful and ideally located"

Hi Theresa Many thanks to you and your family for your kind welcome and hospitality. The property was very well equip, having everything we needed for a great stay , the dog was a great bonus The pool table was a great one for the boys too. You are also so ideally placed for visiting Cordoba, Seville and Carmona. All really lovely, and we even ventured to Seville on the train thanks to Rogers recommendation. I would recommend your property to anyone with a group of friends or family looking for peace and quiet, yet close to wonderful places to visit. Best regards Terri

Terri, UK

"A family stay , relaxing and cultural"

The house was more than large enough to accommodate all of our children and grandchildren (4 couples, 1 single, 3 children, 3 babies). It remains cool inside even when it's hot outside, the pool is large and suitable for every one, young and older. Many facilities make it very practical and pleasant. The house is pretty, flowery in this season; it is quiet but not isolated: neighbors around, shops 10 minutes by car. Located midway between Seville and Cordoba, visiting Andalusia is not too tiring. The "absolute must" squeeze his orange juice in the morning with fruit picked from the tree!

De retour en France, ce petit mot pour vous confirmer notre complete satisfaction pour le sejour passe dans la "Cortijo". En resume: Un sejour en famille reposant et culturel. La maison etait largement assez grande pour recevoir tous nos enfants et petits-enfants (4 couples, 1 celibataire, 3 enfants, 3 bebes). Elle reste fraiche a linterieur meme quand il fait chaud dehors ; la piscine est grande et convient a tous, grands et petits. Beaucoup dequipements la rendent tres pratique est agreable a vivre. La maison et jolie, tres fleuri en cette saison ; elle est calme mais pas isole : voisins aux alentours, commerces a 10 minutes en voiture. Situee a mi-chemin entre Seville et Cordoue, elle permet de visiter lAndalousie sans trop de trajets fatigants. Le "must du must" : presser son jus dorange le matin avec les fruits cueillis sur larbre ! Au plaisir den profiter a nouveau.

Famille Renard, France

Dear Theresa, as promised I will give you - on behalf of my friend Tanja who is working in a travel agency - some feedback regarding your Cortijo. The Finca is placed in a very lovely enviornment, far away from the stressful cities, exactly the place we tried to find. Especially for big groups the house is ideal to celebrate any event. The swimming pool and BBQ station was the most visited place outside. The kids enjoyed the space around the house. The house offers plenty of spaces where you can find time for yourself. The connection to Lora del Rio is easy and close and in the local supermarket you can find anything you need. Needless to say that Roger and you are very friendly and helpful.On behalf of my friends I would like to thank you for the really good time we had in Lora del Rio and who knows perhaps - no for sure - we will have soon a "souvenir" from the Cortijo.....with the name Chico. Best regards and hope to hear soon from you

Charly and family, Germany

From the moment we stepped into the Cortijo and took in the enormous dimensions and the amount of leisure amenities available for the children, we knew we had chosen well. Then we stepped out to the pool area with the outdoor kitchen, barbeque and beer fridge, we felt the pictures on the web site told only part of the story; this place is amazing!. We stayed for 10 days, making various trips to the local villages and further afield to Seville and Arcos de la Frontera, it is such a beautiful part of Spain; lovely food, drink and friendly locals. Surprisingly, for this part of Spain, we had 5 days of rain, but because the Cortijo is so big, it did not ruin our holiday and the children had plenty to keep them occupied. On a final note, this is an ideal holiday location for multiple families or a large or extended family with plenty of separate communal areas to accommodate multiple age-groups. We will definitely be booking again!!

Colin and family, United Kingdom

We had a wonderful stay at the Cortijo. We were so busy seeing the sights that we didn't actually spend a lot of time around the villa, but it suited our needs perfectly. It was nice and spacious, with a great kitchen and comfortable rooms. We also enjoyed a little bit of time poolside, and playing boules. The best feature from my perspective was the location. Coming from Canada, our principal interest was to see as much of Spain as possible, which is a much different holiday from one where the goal is to relax around the villa or sprawl out beside the pool. We went to a different place every day, including Carmona, Seville, Cordoba, Ecija, and even Cadiz. The location of your property made it possible for us to see many wonderful sights. Thank you for your hospitality. Should we return to your area, we would be happy to stay at the Cortijo again.

Jim, Canada

Dear Theresa, We had a very good stay at the Cortijo with our group of old college friends. We enjoyed especially the great opportunity to wine and dine near the pool and all the space in and around the house. It has all you need for a great vacation. We made some trips to Sevilla, Cordoba and Carmona, but never felt the urge to have supper in a restaurant over there. The Cortijo is a really great place to stay with large groups.

Peter, Holland

Buenos dias senores king : como ya comentamos el dia de de regreso con el senor Roger lo pasamos muy bien en su cortijo , fue una reunion familiar muy agradable .....Y TODO A PESAR DEL CALOR ,algun momento del dia de San Juan superamos lo 45.Un saludo familia Montaner

Hello Roger and Theresa. We had great moments at your Cortijo. Roger made us feel relaxed about enjoying the place and so we did. We really appreciate the way you treated us and all the confidence you gave us. Everyone in the party was delighted and all worked properly. Thank you for everything. We had the best wedding we could imagine. We look forward to be there again. Kind regards, Alfonso y Cristina

Dear Theresa, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cortijo. The house has everything one could possibly need. The pool, gamesroom, bbq, garden. Fantastic! We went on superb daytrips to Cordoba, Sevilla and Carmona. The house is ideally located for that. All in all we had a wonderful time and everyone wants to come back next year! Thank you and Roger for the excellent service and warm welcome. Best regards, Philip van Kappen

Philip, Holland

We all really enjoyed our stay. Personally having our own private orangery to make our breakfast juice was a real treat - all the youngsters loved that. Also the roaring fireplace at night was delightful. And once we firgured out how to get into Lora del Rio we found the shops and train station very accessible. Thanks again for setting it all up for us. Regards, the Bedfords from Australia.

Hello Theresa, Yes, we had a safe journey home. Too bad, our holiday is finished now. Back to work. Our stay at you house was great. It was a big house for all of us. Everyday in the swimming pool and almost everday we had the barbeque on. Lovely. We didn't stayed indoors, everyday we went to the swimming pool. Thank you for all your help with our pleasant stay at your house. Everybody is satisfied. We have taken a lot of pictures. Again, thank you and Roger! Kind regards Joyce and Winfred

Joyce and Winfred Karte, Holland

And now, after 1 working week in our always rainy (+++) country, we remember the lost paradise. We have spent 2 fantastic family weeks in the corticho with our children and grand children: 15 persons. We found the corticho the best villa we ever rented since we have our family holyday in France, Italy or Spain: That means since 1986. The corticho is very spacious and comfortable. Very wel equiped kitchen. And clean. We appreciated especially the starters: bread, eggs, jam, butter, olive oil, wine, water etç... Never seen before ! In the bathrooms also all the necessary is provided abondantly. The weekly changing of the bedlinen and towels... Clean indeed. We felt really guests instead of renters. Of course there is the (sub-olympic sized) swimming pool, the outside kitchen en BBQ, the garden... to complete the value of your holyday home: I quote it 10/10. We have visited Sevilla, Cordoba, Carmona, Constantina, Cadiz. We appreciated the tapas in "The Medieval" in Lora and in all the other towns with a special mention of the "El Faro" in Cadiz which is worth a visit. Thank you for this unforgettable 2 weeks. We already regretts that we cannot come back next year (august is no more available and july is not convenient for our family) but we recommend your corticho with enthusiasm.

Hi Theresa Just a note to say, we had a fantastic holiday. The villa is beautiful and when you say a home from home, that’s exactly what it was. So other people are aware you do not need to bring towels, shampoo’s, hair dryer etc everything you could possibly need was available there. Table tennis, pool table, DVD’s & computer access was great for the kids. They spent hours on it during the hot sun playing games and checking up on sports results from home. We had two families staying and we never got under each others feet. Plenty of space to hide away. The beautiful photo on the website does not do justice to the shear size of the villas inside. The pool area is very well decked out. Plenty of beds and chairs. Barbeque area very big and outside fridge was fantastic. Lots of kitchen space and cooking areas inside and out. It is very well maintained and obvious that the owners take great pride in the property. Highly recommend this villa to anyone. Thank you again for a great stay. You should be very proud of yourselves. We look forward to getting out again in the future with some friends for a break away and will recommend your villa to friends and family. Siobheal & Chris

Sara, UK

Hello Theresa, The villa is excellent for a large group with loads of space and an incredible amount of equipment and resources in the kitchen and towels and electronic technology. it is amazing how many people could be accommodated easily in the villa. Beds are comfortable.The pool is large, private and was loved by all the group. Hot water is in abundance and showers had power when everyone wanted a shower at the end of the day. Great facility of delivery from the local supermarket. We all agreed we would go back so that is not a bad recommendation!

Joy, UK

"Lovely Stay at the Cortijo" We stayed for 5 nights at the cortijo in January 2011. We were a family with 4 teenagers. There was more than enough space, and enjoyable distractions, including the pool table and ping-pong. Internet access also was a plus. We enjoyed most the expansive outdoor facilities, including the grill and the lovely dining area with beautiful, long views of the surrounding countryside. Also, fresh squeezed orange juice every morning with the oranges picked from the surrounding grove. The bedrooms are simple but comfortable and in nice style. The kitchen and dining areas are enormous and well equipped. The owners were helpful and gracious, including understanding about our late arrival. A great place to stay.

Gail Weinstein, New York USA

"Fantastic Holiday" Enjoyed a wonderful week at the Cortijo in early Nov 2010, Setting of Cortijo is spectacular and close to rail and road links to both Seville and Cordoba. Cortijo was very comfortable and spacious, we were 11 adults and it was easy to find a quiet corner to relax. Roger and Theresa were wonderful and very helpful. The weather was so good we were even in the very large swimming pool

Sandy Drysdale, Scotland

We loved the place. We found it had everything we needed. Some great aspects of the stay: - We really liked the amount of space to work and have some games. - We enjoyed the weather, even if it was raining in some periods. - The kitchen had everything we needed. - The beds were very comfortable and the rooms perfect for a group of 20 people. - The space outside near the pool is perfect for a good meal Overall it was great and we would recommend to any other group or friends. Thank you!

Hi Theresa, had a wonderful time at the villa. The villa was exactly as described with lots of space and beautiful surroundings. The pool was a perfect size for all the family to enjoy. Would definitely recomend the villa to any large group or family. Thankyou for all your help in making a special holiday for our family. The Dann Family

The Dann Family, UK

We were a group of four families sharing this villa and found it to be extremely spacious and very well equiped, especially in the kitchen. The kids loved playing pool, table tennis and the teenagers were very happy to have internet access. The outside area was very spacious with a great sized pool. We have a member of our group who is permanently in a wheelchair and this was the most accessible villa we have found so far. All in all we had a fab holiday.

Victoria Harding, UK

We had a really enjoyable holiday. The Cortijo is well suited for large familys with children. We loved the swimming pool and outside areas.

Susan Cook, UK

I want you to know that I was thrilled with the group shot you took of us and of the fact you met us in town and escorted us to the property. The swimming pool was awesome, the view gorgeous, the house spacious. I believe that you go the distance to make your guests feel welcomed and relaxed. I thank you and your lovely family for my inaugural introduction to Spain!

Carmen Mora, Spain

Just had a great stay at the Cortijo, our family all enjoyed the facilities which were exactly as stated on the website, Carmona is only 20 minutes away and is well worth the trip out if you want to eat in authentic Spanish style with a choice of at least 3 top restaurants. All in all we were very pleased with the accommodation its generous size, high standard and will definitely return.
