About this property
Charming spacious barn in beautiful tranquil scenery, pool on property
Our beautiful barn is in its own grounds of 1 hectare at Finca al-manzil. which is a huge finca, completey private. The barn has its own entrance and complete privacy from the rest of the finca. Furnished with care, interesting objects and paintings. Really spacious with upstairs bedroom, a double height sitting/dining room of 45m2 with sofa, armchairs, dining for 6; wood burning stove; plenty of books and dvds, smart t.v.; fully equipped kitchen with French window to long covered terrace with views over the olive groves and up to the peaks, perfect for bird watching. Outside dining table and for summer months there is a misting system to keep the terrace cool on hot days. A wood burning stove keeps the whole space really cosy in the cooler months. There is a sofa bed in bedroom for use of 1 child under 10. Sunny bathroom with shower and views of meadow.
The grounds surround the barn for complete privacy, a magical copse of old holm oaks are perfect for hammock siestas and star gazing dinners in the warm, clear Extremadura nights. Lovely walks in all directions. FANTASTIC FOR BIRD WATCHING... an eagle owl is nesting in the woods, flocks of azure winged magpies, magical hoopoes plus the usual eagles, hawks and griffin vultures circling up in the crags. A path leads from the barn to the wonderful pool surrounded by beautiful shrubs and extensive views. The pool is shared with the cortijo of Finca al-manzil IF it is rented but it is in its own special place not belonging to either house, there is plenty of space and privacy for everyone and the barn has its own private terrace with loungers and shade. Pool opens on May 15.
Located in Albalá, this cottage is in a rural area and in the mountains. Norba Club de Golf and Ciudad Deportivo Junta de Extremadura are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those looking for area attractions can visit Centro Cultural y de Desarrollo "Juan Ceballos Galeano" and Visual Arts Centre Helga de Alvear Foundation.

Very well equipped and spacious. In a very quiet location (apart from bird song!) Nice countryside for walks and birds. Not too far to drive to Mérida, Cáceres or Trujillo. Very friendly and helpful hosts.
The bathroom is on the ground floor and the lower part of the stairs to and from the bedroom don't have a hand rail which might not suit everyone, particularly in the night.
Entspannung pur in herrlich ruhiger Gegend! Es gibt nur einen Kritikpunkt der uns wirklich störte: Das Bett ist 1,40 m breit - das war für uns sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig!
De "barn" stond op een mooie locatie en daar was het meeste ook mee gezegd.Het zwembad was niet prive maar gedeeld met de finca. Dit werd niet gemeld op de website van vrbo!! Het was er niet erg schoon. Het is voorheen ongetwijfeld erg mooi geweest maar nu wel wat verlopen. Er was een map met een waslijst een regels waar je aan moest voldoen!! Het was overprijsd.
Una casa fantástica en medio del campo, muy tranquila y acogedora, Ideal para ir con tu perro suelto. La casa es amplia para dos personas y con todo lo necesario para pasar unos días inolvidables. La atención de la propietaria Pippa es ideal. Lo recomiendo sin ninguna duda.
Superbe hebergement tres fonctionnel amenage et decore avec braucoup de gout la terrasse la piscine tout est parfait. Un tres bon accueil et une region tres agreable avec le village de Montanchez tout pres typique et tranquille. Nous reviendrons au printemps pour faire de la marche.
Wir wohnten im August 2019 3 Wochen in der Scheune. Sehr liebevoll umgebautes und eingerichtetes Objekt in wunderschöner, ruhiger Umgebung. Idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, ebenso für Ausflüge in die schönsten Städte der Extremadura. Pippa und Manfred sind sehr freundliche und umsichtige Gastgeber. Herzlichen Dank für die nette Aufnahme in der Scheune.

We absolutely loved the barn!
The barn is really beautifully designed for two with masses of airy space inside and a lovely covered porch where we spent a lot of time watching the birds in the meadow and in the copse of old holm oaks. Really comfortable and stylish with good quality furnishings and design features, two amazing old harrows hanging on the wall, very impressive. Besides lounging around the finca we explored the super scenery and visited all the historical towns within 30 minutes drive. Had some memorable food and wine and met some super friendly people. We have booked already for next spring.
