This absolutely delightful family home is full of rustic charm with stunning views in a superb location, sleeping up to five. Ideal both for couples and/or families with children. The beautiful large pool, with a depths of 1.4 - 2.7 metres, is surrounded with terraces to provide both natural shade and full sun all day. The pool measures 12.5 x 5 metres and is fitted with underwater lighting, a great feature for all ages.

Local Area:
Finca Alboran makes an ideal base for day trips to the beautiful cities of Ronda, Jerez, Cadiz, Seville and the Atlantic Coast. All of these cities have much historical and architectural interest as well as having fabulous shopping and fine restaurants. Ronda has a famous gorge and also has the oldest Bullring in Spain.

Gaucin is a spectacular, unspoilt white village with many food shops, a chemist, bank, bars, four restaurants and a public tennis court. There is a lively art scene with the annual ‘Open Studios’ proving to be very popular with a wide audience . Throughout the year Gaucin has many fascinating fiestas, traditional Saint days and the ‘Semana-Santa’, their holy week, processions. In August Gaucin celebrates its ‘Feria’ with a fairground, dancing, a flamenco festival and their very own bull-fights.
Overlooking the village are the ruins of a Moorish castle, with incomparable views over to the Mediterranean Coast, North Africa and Gibraltar. This area is a paradise for walking, exploring, horse-riding and bird watching and just enjoying the many "watering holes".
Reading through our visitors book we're happy to see the variety of choices that were made, it being the beach/lunch in one of the beach bars., reading & swimming and not going anywhere, riding for the family, visiting ancient sights such as "Cuevas de la Pileta", Roman Ronda and of course Ronda itself with its many extraordinary sites.

We do have few reviews on VRBO. Our property is mostly let through Rustic Blue and to repeat visitors resulting in 70% of our bookings. In fact, no bookings were from VRBO in 2023, as we were booked very early on by Rustic Blue an returning visitors.

Marvelous house, perfect location
We had a most wonderful stay at Finca Alboran. The place has stunning views and a beautiful garden with ample spots to hang out and relax. The house is super comfortable, spotlessly clean, and beautifully decorated. The hosts are marvelous and are always there to help. Gaucin is a really lovely village and it's easy to get around. There are restaurants and plenty of shops to get groceries. We could not have had a more beautiful and relaxing holiday and highly recommend Alice and Jim's place.

The most beautiful setting and home
We had a week in Finca Alboran, from the moment we arrived we knew it would be hard to leave. The house and gardens are stunning, with beautiful views all around you. It has all been so well designed and considered, and made for a very comfortable holiday home. The bedrooms are very large and comfortable, with a spacious living area downstairs too. The four of us were all very comfortable. We cooked a lot, the kitchen was well equipped and a pleasure to cook in. There’s a lovely big walk in shower downstairs and a large en-suite upstairs. There is plenty to do in the region, but we were more than happy to relax at the house and pop into Gaucin. We did venture out, but my best memories of the week are the times we spent together as a family in the house. The area outside the kitchen is shaded and relaxing, a lovely spot to eat but also to read, and nap… The pool is a fantastic size, deep enough to dive and swim lengths. Lots of places to explore and seating areas to enjoy the views of the mountains (or have a nap). The table tennis was the most picturesque we have played, loved our evening tournaments as the sun set. Alice and Jim are perfect hosts, always available with local advice and information about the home. It was lovely to meet them, they are very considerate and did everything they could to ensure we had a wonderful week. They are respectful of your space, whilst being very accessible, an impressive balance. Also have to mention the books, so many books to read! Huge variety and kept us all happy, took my books home unread, other people’s books are more interesting. Honestly, one of the best weeks we have had together as a family. Thank you Alice and Jim for opening up your home, it’s very special indeed.

Holiday Home Review
Wonderful house, pretty, traditional and authentic but spacious and had all mod cons you could wish for. The pool was a treat, deep enough for diving, amazing views and lovely shaded areas to sit and relax. Alice and Jim were the perfect hosts, providing shopping for us as we arrived late, and meeting us the following day with lots of helpful information about the area. Honestly couldn’t have asked for more, we shall definitely be back! Xx

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Jim & Alice Rattenbury

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
We came across this wonderful piece of paradise in 1982 in search of arcadia. The original house and bread-oven were very much part of our vision to create this stunning family home.
It is our winter-home, when we landscape, garden, renovate and just enjoy being here. Our six acres in total are a labour of love.
We live nearby when the house is let.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

The views are to the south with the distant Mediterranean coast and the mountains of Africa. It is such joy, as the landscape changes continuously, sometimes revealing the Rif mountains or the African coastline. The property is surround with terraces on different levels, some in full sun others in shade, such a variety of places to choose from. We're told that it is hard to enjoy all of them during a weeks stay.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

Country living at its best within walking distance from Gaucin, the most spectacular hilltop village in Andalucia, in our opinion. We're biased of course, but during our travels in Europe we have never come across a place where we'd like to live other than here.
Scenic, stunning and peaceful, with incredible views to the Rif mountains of North Africa.
The property is so comfortable, with everything you may want to feel at home. The very large pool is a great extra playground, its depth to dive for......
Surrounded with miles of unspoilt countryside, the sheep grazing in the fields, a display of such magnitude of flowering shrubs, a mediterranean garden at your doorstep. We're surrounded with walking trails, beautiful scenic walks, stunning drives to historical towns, villages or ancient settlements, with swimming, sunbathing and much more. Perfect for a romantic retreat, sharing with friends or a family holiday.
Gaucin is a wonderful village, great restaurants and much more. We have plenty of info both for the area and village, given by us or by previous holiday makers. There are stunning places to visit within an hours drive. Having said that, most visitors do not venture far, but the choice is yours.....
