About this house rental
A beautiful, traditionally renovated Andalusian cortijo, perfectly designed for large group getaways. El Cachete is a 150 year old farmhouse set in 80 acres of beautiful olive groves. The cortijo was bought in 2000 and the owners, Jim and Mary Cairns, have done extensive work on the property to ensure that it can accommodate not only a large number of people (up to 20) but also a variety of activities, whilst putting minimal strain on the environment. The cortijo has been designed to be as eco-friendly as possible; the water is sourced from its own well and there are solar panels to heat the water. Whatever you're looking for from a group holiday rental, this cortijo has it; whether that be swimming in the 20 metre long, 2.75 metre deep pool, soaking up the sun, playing ping pong, or seeking out one of the hidden cubby holes - perfect for reading or simply having some ‘me time’.
1 master double bedroom, ensuite, featuring a private balcony providing spectacular views of the pool and surrounding countryside, with steps leading directly down to the pool area.
5 double/twin ensuite; 4 single ensuite.
*1 further double bedroom and a 3 bed dorm/children’s bedroom sharing a family bathroom.
The kitchen is fully equipped with 6 hob burners, 2 ovens, 2 fridges, a microwave, double sinks and a dishwasher. There is a large selection of pans and cooking equipment, a mini deep fat fryer, a Kitchen Aid food mixer (just incase you’re holidaying with any budding bakers) and to top it all off, an authentic pizza oven can be found by one of the two outside dining areas. A laundry room can be found close to the kitchen.
There are tables around the courtyard at the front of the property and also on the terrace at the rear; both providing shaded dining areas at different times of the day.
There are two separate living rooms within the house; the larger main sitting room has a television, piano, speakers and a bar area. The smaller room is a shady, calm area perfect for children to chill out.
We have one friendly dog, that come and go during the day, and cats.
Cortijo El Cachete has the perfect balance of seclusion and excitement; immerse yourself in the surrounding countryside and tranquil settings of the Andalusian olive groves where you can discover natural springs and waterfalls! Head to the coast for a day at the beach, or take a trip to the historic and beautiful city of Granada, visit the awe-inspiring Alhambra Palace, watch a traditional Spanish Flamenco performance, enjoy delicious tapas and join in with the local fiestas, which take place throughout the villages and towns all summer long!

A large villa set in a wonderfully spanish area.
So many different areas so that a large party of guests can find individual areas for time out.
A wonderful swimming pool with shaded areas which was perfect for the high temperatures that we experienced. Great to be able to close the area off so that the small infants could not gain access without an adult.

A lovely house where we stayed for a week with the children and grandchildren to celebrate Christmas. The house is not far from the highway, between olivetrees and can be heated well in the evening. Too bad the week was over so quickly.

Lovely rustic farmhouse with fabulous pool. Lots of stunning views. We loved the safety of the pool area as it could be locked off, important as we had small children with us. Kitchen had everything we needed to cater for large group and we even mastered the art of pizza making in the wood fired oven by the rear patio. Beds were comfortable and the en suites for each room appreciated, no queuing for the bathroom ! The owners were friendly and answered any questions we had prior to booking quickly. We all loved our stay and didn't want to come home
