3 Bedroom Cottage in Grazalema

El Pastor is situated in an outstanding valley in the Parque Natural of the Sierra de Grazalema 7km from the village, in a secluded rural position at an altitude of 600 meters, with the nearest neighbour a few minutes walk away.
El Pastor is built on the site of an old mill and bakery and its focus is the river which can be seen from most of the windows. The accommodation is simple and typical of farmhouses and mills in the area, there is a good internet wifi connection.. The garden is planted with native plants including rosemary and lavender. There are various outside areas where one can relax and a short path takes you to the river (which powered the mill), where a waterfall has created a natural plunge pool and waterfall which is perfect for swimming in, on hot summer days. This mountainous area is perfect for walking, cycling and bird watching. Scops Owls, Golden Oriels, Griffon Vultures, Black Kites and Bee Eaters have all been spotted close to the mill.

Summary: Review El Pastor – GrazalemaEl Pastor is in a quiet and beautiful spot surrounded by mountains and greenery. The house itself really suited our taste: modern in its design, yet still keeping its Spanish character. It feels authentic without being overdone.The house has most of the essentials you need. The kitchen is practical, and the bedrooms and living area are comfortable. Other reviews mentioned it’s a great place to relax, and we found that to be true as well.There were a few minor downsides that can’t really be helped. For us, the heat was sometimes difficult (5 days of 40), especially at night. Air conditioning would have made it more comfortable. Because of that, we’d probably return during a cooler time of year.What we especially enjoyed was the nature around the house. We saw plenty of local plants and wildlife, and at night we loved watching the sky. Seeing shooting stars in the darkness was a memorable experience.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return.“El Pastor gave us a lovely stay and will stay with us as a special place.”
