The Experience
The problem with holidaying with young children is that few places answer your needs and theirs. This is different: Lorna and Lee’s 16-acre farm in the southern hills is a fabulous place for family holidays, or for couples wanting more privacy and taking both spaces together. The two purpose-built and simply styled cottages each have their own terrace, Netflix on the TVs, barbecue and great views.
The pool has a shallow area for kids, and toys, cots and baby gadgets galore, there’s a big suntrap terrace, a purpose-built play area, giant patio chess, table tennis and loads more. Join your thoughtful hosts for paella night once a week, and they are also happy to provide free babysitting for an evening during your stay, ferrying you to and from your chosen restaurant.
Lorna can do all sorts of relaxing beauty therapies; golf and fishing can be arranged nearby.

When we arrived at Cortijo Jacaranda I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was ... up in the hills surrounded by orange , olive and almond trees and just the most breath taking views .... the casita was perfect ... equipt with everything you could need ... immaculately clean it was just so welcoming ... especially with the pool just outside the front door ... and a lovely shaded area to relax and keep cool .... lee and Lorna are there to make sure you have everything you need the whole holiday was faultless and I highly recommend it ... I just can’t wait to go back ....

A fantastic holiday! Thank you Lorna and Lee for giving us the chance to see a beautiful and relaxing part of Spain. Our casita was perfect - very clean, comfortable and brilliantly equipped for holidaying with a little one. We loved the pool, the sunshine, the peace and quiet and Lorna's brilliant paella and cheesecake. We booked our holiday very last minute and can't believe how lucky we were to find such a perfect place. A wonderful pedicure in Lorna's treatment room was a total bonus and we loved visits from Chloe the dog. Hoping to return next year! The Walls Family

We had a lovely week in October. The casita was comfortable and well equipped with lot of things for our two children. The pool was spotless and the play area and sandpit brilliant. And the surrounding countryside and views simply breathtaking. Lee and Lorna are very helpful and approachable, and the paella night is a must! The babysitting was also so appreciated, enabling us to have a wonderful meal out in the local town. We look forward to a return visit.

Location
The neighbourhood
You are a 15-minute drive to the nearest small town, Pizarra, which has a cracking gastro bar, Los Pacheco and a good tapas bar at the train station. From here you can get a train to Málaga for a day out without the hassle of parking your car. Visit the famous Caminito del Rey, swim in lakes, paddle board or kayak. The nearest beach is 45 minutes, Ronda is one hour.
Local points of interest from Lee & Lorna Rickwood
- Nestled in the hills between the beautiful white villages of Alora and Pizarra. Cortijo Jacarandas rural location allows you escape the stress of everyday life by relaxing round the pool, admiring the amazing sunsets and adoring the breathtaking views.
- Whilst staying at Cortijo Jacaranda you can not only relax but not too far away there are a wide range of activities available ranging from golf, sea fishing and skiing to hiking and birdwatching.
- Take the train to Malaga, which is a lovely city to explore. It offers an abundance of history such as the Cathedral and Alcazaba. A wander around Malaga's new port is highly recommended. A hive of activity with bars, restaurants, shops and much more.
- The spectacular "Camino del Rey" suspended above El Chorro Gorge is only 40 minutes away. You can swim or take out a pedalo on the beautiful lakes at El Chorro. The historical towns of Ronda, Antequerra and Granada are easily reached by car.

Introducing
Lee & Lorna Rickwood
Lorna and husband Lee left Kent some 17 years ago and bought the Cortijo as a going concern. Lorna is a trained beautician and offers her guests manicures and pedicures as well as lifts, babysitting and general good cheer.
Beautiful setting, with countryside views all around and often a very welcome breeze. The villa is equipped with absolutely everything you need and was fantastically clean. The pool is gorgeous and perfect for young children to spend the day. Lorna is a wonderful host - nothing is too much trouble and her paella is amazing! We travelled with family who stayed in the opposite villa - it provided privacy as well as plenty of shared family time. It really is the most idyllic and relaxing setting for a peaceful holiday.
