Casa Rural Pozuelo 3 JABUGO

Casa Rural Pozuelo 3 JABUGO is located within a 40-hectare estate, in an area with the highest tree density in Spain (highlighting cork oaks, chestnut trees and olive trees). Dedicated to the production of organic walnuts and chestnuts, it has 50,000 m2 dedicated to walnut (with organic walnut harvest, certified by the CAAE). Ideal to relax and take walks to other nearby towns. It is located just 200 m from the Ribera de Jabugo road, which leads to Jabugo (700 m). The beauty of the chestnut tree stands out especially in autumn, where it goes from green to red and yellow. From Aracena, we can do the chestnut route, passing through beautiful towns such as Los Marines, Fuenteheridos, Castaño del Robledo or Galaroza (along trails recommended by the Andalusian Hiking Federation). In addition to natural spaces -such as the Gruta de las Maravillas or the many Royal Paths-, you will find architectural pearls such as the Castle of Cortegana (SXIII to SXVI), the Hermitage of Almonaster la Real (SIX to SX) or the building of Tiro al Pichón (in Jabugo), among others. Due to the central location of the Finca with respect to the Sierra, you will be in an ideal point for hiking and cycling routes.

Home
The Rural House Pozuelo 3 is an old tool house, which was completed in 2005. It preserves the wide, original stone walls (visible from the inside in the dining room and in the bathroom). It is a very bright house, where much of the furniture has been restored. A house that, like everything we offer, has a marked rustic stamp of quality. Recommended for couples or families, it has a nice porch and a large recreation area where you can walk. Pozuelo 3 has two floors: on the ground floor is the living room with fireplace and the kitchen (fully equipped). After climbing 5 steps, you enter the beautiful bathroom (with its main wall of varnished stone) and the two bedrooms. Interior equipment: In Pozuelo 3 we find ecological central heating, gas stove, microwave, plasma TV, complete kitchen utensils (cutlery, plates, pans, pots, glasses…), sheets and towels.

Working Animals
On the farm there are sheep that maintain the fields and two mastiffs that guard the farm and take care of the sheep. They are calm animals, not aggressive at all, but they live and work freely. Keep this in mind, especially if you bring pets, as they are working animals and we cannot lock them up.
