What a beautiful place and incredibly hospitable. Comfortable, relaxed and stunning scenery and wonderful food! What more can I say but treat yourself!! Although I should really keep it a secret...

Stayed here last year, and returned again this year as part of a horse riding holiday with Ride Andalucia. It's a hidden gem!

On arrival you are greeted by Diana, the most amiable & generous host, followed by a flurry of dogs, the wonderful smell of blossom from the many fruit trees and flowers which surround the farmhouse, and the delicious aroma's from Diana's kitchen. The food is fantastic (maybe not on your waistline!) and much of what diana cooks is sourced from her veggie patch and from her home grown herbs. Her warm welcome usually involves a large Gin & Tonic and directions to the lovely swimming pool in the grounds. The atmosphere here is totally relaxed, with people who randomly drop by for a chat, a basket of lemons from her tree, or for dinner!!

Along with my sister, I was fortunate to be staying with here on on the last night of our riding tour when the volcano errupted in Iceland. Our flight was delayed for 4 days .We had dinner by the roaring fire on a chilly night, picked our own grapefruits for breakfast, and had the best time ever, we really didn't want to go home.

In summary, a very special place to stay with a very special lady... Thanks x

What a magical spell La Almuña casts! An utterly charming farmhouse, magnificent views, huge sunny terrace and gardens, delicious food, funny friendly dogs, horses all around – and Diana’s warm and welcoming hospitality makes you feel completely at home. We’ll definitely be back!

La Almuna is a truly a “home from home”. On arrival we were greeted by Diana, our warm and convivial host, together with her 3 very friendly dogs, all of whom made us feel very welcome from the start. The house is beautifully located in a quiet spot a few km outside of Gaucin, and boasts absolutely magnificent views over the Andalucian countryside. The food and accommodation are both excellent. This is an ideal place for nature-lovers - the walks in the surrounding area are very good and the countryside is rich with bird-life and other animals- and also for those just wanting to relax and do nothing. We arrived absolutely exhausted from our stressful jobs in London, and very quickly felt ourselves unwind, comforted by the informal and inviting atmosphere and Diana’s fantastic hospitality.
